Statistically, 6 out of 7 dwarves arent happy

[The C Kid]

Sold some tickets on Twitter, and have been scammed by a guy who has refused to pay. Only reason I sent first was that we had mutual friends in common on Facebook so I gave him the benefit of the doubt as it was a late sale on Friday and he said he'd deposit on Monday. Turns out from speaking to the friends in common, that it's not the first time he's done something like this.

Anyway I have a phone number and a work email address so am planning to email his work with screenshots, it's not a massive amount of money, but he's been so brazen about it that basically just want to cause him hassle now.

Too far or should I go ahead with it?

[MrsFlushdraw]

I am terrible on the roads. I think there are a lot of woman out there who just can not drive. They are also more ignorant than their male counterparts.

I have moaned "woman drivers" many a time. I don't think I am too bad myself though. In fact when I learned to drive my instructor whom I had known for years said I should go for my ADI and be an instructor myself. So I took that as a compliment. Although I don't have the patience for it so was never a thought. I did hear that your insurance goes down if you have your advanced drivers licence but not sure if that is the same in Ireland.

"Friends" on facebook and people in real life much different things.
Guy in my rugby club scammed about 5k off lads for ufc tickets for the big MCgregor fight.
Had been in the club three years nights out tours so came as a shock.

The Vigilante got him.

[Iago]

need 2 but better again 4 tickets for the all-ireland hurling final as a favour for someone. I'm sure they're easy to come by, given the fact that it's not really a popular sport unlike say the United v League of Ireland XI game, but thought I'd try here first just in case.

Anybody help?

Thats annoying. Looks like no poker for me till easter next year then.

[Silver-Tiger]

Ye. I missed the last one.

I bought premium tickets on toutless.

About 30 mins in when i know everyone has taken their seats, is it o.k move premium sections or will i be stopped?

[tylerdurden94]

Got the chance to use a OnePlus One phone albeit briefly in Barcelona and it was pretty impressive, also got to use a Nexus 5 and found it very slick kinda torn between upgrading. Find the form factor of the Nexus 5 to be just about perfect and didn't really like the feel of the bigger smartphones currently doing the rounds. So many rumors about a Nexus 6 though.

[Denny Crane]

yeah doubt there's any point in buying a nexus 5 at this point.

If there is to be a new Nexus it'll be the end of Oct probably before its announced. I've heard anywhere between 5-6 inch screen on it, but too many rumours to get a clear idea yet.

Move away, no bother there. Course I would move early and get the best seats and take my chances, cos half the crowd will probably be doing that anyway.

Im actually looking for 2 also, i assume they are slightly easier to come by than football ones, but im probably assuming spectacularly wrong.

Also is the College game tomorrow even close to being a sell out?

Keeping well away from any future Nexus. Have the Nexus4, battery life is awful, soft keys have stopped working which seems to be a common issue and the power button barely works anymore.

I have the IAM advanced driver qualification and I get a 30% discount on top of everything else from Aviva.

I had a galaxy Nexus for 2 years that is still working perfectly (I recently loaned it to someone for 2 months) , and my nexus 5 has no issues either. There will always be bad experiences with all tech, but an individual experience, good or bad is far from conclusive.

Battery life ok? On googling the soft key issue it seems to be a massive problem, did find a workaround though.

Nice long scenic trips to Besiktas, Partizan Belgrade and Tripoli (the Greek one, sadly not the Libyan one) for Spurs.

Everton get Lille, Wolfsburg and Krasnador (Russia).

Emailing screen shots is weak. You can do better.

We know where he works and we have his details.

This aggression will not stand.

Fuck. Do you know anybody involved with the GAA county board of a weaker county? Some AI final tickets are distributed to every county board as it's the premier event of the year. Ask somebody from a weak county like Laois/Carlow/Offaly/Meath who used to play hurling at county level or is involved with a county board if they can help you.

All our tickets are committed already but obv I'll keep my ears open for you.

Nexus 7 and chrome cast are unreal combination. Streaming HD movies and browsing the web with ease. No issue with battery life for me.

Battery isn't great, no. I usually make sure I'm not far from a charger for too long though. I've one at work and portable ones for travelling.

Do they have to be sat together? There will be no problems in getting tickets from Thurs/Fri of next week as people panic book tickets at the moment through friends and clubs and end up stuck with them. Most likely be individual tickets though not together

No, you clearly don't know who you're talking about, so let me clue you in. I am not in danger, Lads. I am the danger. A guy opens his door and gets shot and you think that of me? No. I am the one who knocks!

AI final tickets (football and hurling) sold through clubs only (or scheme tickets like Parnell Park scheme)

Three of those counties have active club hurling scenes, much better chance from the Longfords/Sligos/Leitrims/Northern counties.

Yeah, idiots dunno how to do McDonald's, the big pot of bbq ya get with tenders is nicer again, more than likely same sauce dressed up differently but nicer all the same.

Serious doubts about the life decision-making abilities of anyone who doesn't choose BBQ

BBQ sauce has been ruined by its popularity. There is now so many variations that the standard BBQ sauce you get these days is bland shite.

I long for the days of Godfathers Pizza. They were the king of pizza and BBQ sauce. I am yet to find the same sauce anywhere. It has ruined all other forms for me.

This is an upsetting subject for me so will leave it at that.

Would have thought the same about anyone eating chicken nuggets tbh!

In before SP and his fake pink sludge nugget vidyo.

[TheJiggaman]

I see the news about Rangers (Scotland) share prices being reduced to 20 cent. How would one go about purchasing them? Just out of curiosity really so I can look at them and others.
