Title: Christmas Party
Post by: Asho87 on November 20, 2008, 03:32:01
Well well ladies and gentlemen....
(http://www.mymerrychristmas.com/forum/images/smilies/109.gif)
It's Christmas season again (as much as some of us want to deny it!(http://www.mymerrychristmas.com/forum/images/smilies/angry.gif)) (http://www.mymerrychristmas.com/forum/images/smilies/108.gif)

And this means the CHRISTMAS PARTY!!! Booze and Frolics (http://www.mymerrychristmas.com/forum/images/smilies/7a.gif)

And in true Canoe Club Style I want to see Santa dresses, Sexy boy Santa outfits, dress up as a Christmas tree for all I care.... (http://www.mymerrychristmas.com/forum/images/smilies/39.gif)

Festivity is a necessity anyway!!

We've booked the upstairs in Messr Maguires for the 4th of December!

Woooo it's gonna be awesome!! (http://www.mymerrychristmas.com/forum/images/smilies/48.gif)

It's gonna be €5 in to help raise funds to "Fix the Roof" that was mysteriously broken at Freshers.....

hey guys,
our dazzling PRO has informed me that Messrs is only holding the venue for us until 9...so if you're doing pre-gaming better get it done before then.Mkay? We all cool with that? Good.

None of this fashionably late cause you were drinking somewhere else. That's just stupid. The earlier we turn up, the longer the fun shall last.

See you all tomorrow! woop.

We can drink in Messrs - we're just going to start early in the bar in UCD - join us if you're around

Also you don't necessarely need bells - only if you want to dress up like that........

I'd say I'll head to the bar around 7.30 or so - depends on how much work I get done - and what was his costume again ?? (Memory like a goldfish I'm afraid)
Title: Re: Christmas Party

and is there some kind of "schedualed time" when we gather together?..to meet and talk about each other, drink heavily in order to enjoy one anothers company and then later move to a designated area where we move our bodies in jerking, jiggling sort of movements in time with the latest pop singles?....god, i love parties.

Look here Leighton. You crowd are all just scared of those of us from Wickla. You come down, abuse our rivers and then piss off back to Dublin only to hurl abuse at us. Well, no more. The next time you come to Wickla we'll be waiting for YOUR kind...that's right...YOUR kind. The kind of people that need a vodka on the rocks to get them through the day. Don't go tainting our board with your efforts to get plastered at an unholy hour of the day whilst the rest of us are making the most of our day in the Library. We are a respectful Sports community and we will not be party to this madness. You are an alcoholic Leighton...an alcoholic. Look at you...getting people to pay you in pints.

Oh, oh, your bringing out the racism card are you? Well that's just great. I joined this club thinking I'd fit in, be one of the 'in' crowd! I was a little rumbled to see some of the Pale outsiders in the club but I'm open minded, I figured I'd try and get along but no, I get abused for being from the big smoke, for wanting more from my life than being a country bumkin, well listen here, not all of use can go to our Cork cousins and get a job on the bog. It's not all roses and chocolates for me you know. I need to drink. I need.

Racism....racism? I called you an alcho?! Sorry. I didn't realise I was pickin on an idiot. That's unfair.

I missed the bit where I abused where you came from. Again, I only referred to your drinking.
As for being a..what was it?...Country Bumpkin?! Dangerous territory. I am no ones Bumpkin...not even the country's. Yes I am from the "country", if that's what we're calling Wickla. Here's an offer for you Leighton if you were

It's not fine! SNAP OUT OF IT! Hoping you'll be 'brought home safely' as opposed to get yourself home safely is certainly an odd aspiration for a night out.Really setting your sights high!

'You crowd' is what you said and by that I took it you mean't Inner City Dublinners. Yes, we are a race of our own, I like to think of us as an Aryan race because we are that good.

I can't help the drinking problem, they keep offering. It's so easy.!!

Oh and your Rivers are better so I'll go to them.

I can keep going.

Presumptuous aren't we? 'You crowd'referred to those who discriminate against people from Wickla, are you that close-minded that you didn't think I could be referring to anyone who hailed from outside of the "Pale" as you so delicately put it.

Aryan race eh? You do know tat Hitler was opposite to what he deemed to be the perfect human creation. Don't make me go there.

I've already told you we'd help you with the drinking issue.

Don't touch our rivers until you apologise.

....hahahahaha...did someone from Dublin just complain about rivers from Wicklow being 'dirty stinking rivers'?!? Oh that's a good one Leighton.

Well hows bout you run off to your Roman Empire then....run away...go on.


'The theory that the Aryans first came from Europe became especially accepted in Germany. It was widely believed that the "Vedic Aryans" were the same people as the Goths, Vandals and other ancient Germanic peoples who brought the Western Roman Empire to an end. This idea was often mixed with anti-Semitic ideas.'

Not sure if I'd be too proud of that. Just after you accused me of being racist. Quite the turn around don't you think?



"Doctors" sure....

Aryan race eh? You do know tat Hitler was opposite to what he deemed to be the perfect human creation. Don't make me go there.

"Godwin's Law (also known as Godwin's Rule of Nazi Analogies)[1] is an adage formulated by Mike Godwin in 1990. The law states:[2][3]

"As a Usenet discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one.""

...

"There are many corollaries to Godwin's law, some considered more canonical (by being adopted by Godwin himself)[2] than others invented later.[1] For example, there is a tradition in many newsgroups and other Internet discussion forums that once such a comparison is made, the thread is finished and whoever mentioned the Nazis has automatically "lost" whatever debate was in progress. This principle itself is frequently referred to as Godwin's Law."

I have to go to the doctors now but I'll touch your dirty stinking rivers whenever I want. I can't see any of you Wickla billys doing anything to stop me.

Don't you worry - We'll have something planned.......


And Diarmaid I prefer the Reverse Godwin
