cuckoo · 2005-07-27 19:28:22

We're all very good at posting in the moan/bitching/groan thread, so i thought maybe we could try a 'woo hoo!' thread? For the 'i got a job/won the lotto/had a nice day' posts.

Stayed up into the early hours vandalising thierry henry's facebook and wikipedia pages as part of a collaborative effort.

Said vandalism was mentioned in some uk papers. Success!

Snowboarding rocks, though I've never heard of it done in Poland. I want to try out skimboarding, since there aren't any slopes in Ireland and it seems kind of similar. Obviously mountainboarding is quite close but that has the whole "how do I stop - steer into a gravel driveway and fall over" thing.

Haven't a clue. Friend asked did I want to go to Poland. I said yes and that was it. I'm sure it'll be great! And there'll be snow!

Well I'm guessing if there's snow and skiing I can snowboard. Did it once in Wisconsin in the states and it was cool.

So I figured out how to unsub from threads on boards, no more emails about the endless "Father Ted Trivia Quiz" thread, which seemed like a good idea at the time. Woop.

+1 'twas excellent! I can't think of anything that wasn't funny.. Loved the Provost/zombie story, ask the Junior Dean, the adverts.. Actually, pretty much all of it. Oh, the "This is a good day for students" quote..

I was laughing away to myself on the train home yesterday and I got some funny looks, people couldn't figure what I was reading, obviously not a metro!

Highlights; Doyles, the little snippets in the contents on page 1 and the opinion section (mostly just the headlines, few of the jokes had the legs for much more than that. Still gold though!)

Edit; "Cheese it! It's Hego."
