Apple do ridic good computers even if their phones leave a lot to be desired on a price/benefit basis. Oddly the new Dells seem like the closest high-level competitors.
can also buy the epic apple monitors for cheap from asia. Their OS is good though!
You pay a huge premium for it. Their laptops are nice aesthetically too

Battery life is awesome.
Must admit to HATING Windows 8 but I am only hearing good things about Windows 10 so will be upgrading when I get my copy.This may or may not be an original thought of my own.
All efforts were made to make this thought original but with the abundance of thoughts in the world the originality of this thought cannot be guaranteed.

Some lovely touches throughout, if you're going I HIGHLY recommend going in early. As for seating if you or anyone with you is over 5'10" then the extra few quid is worth it. The Olympia is the most uncomfortable theatre in Ireland for tall people so keep that in mind.
Really liked a lot of the choices they made stylistically and it works really well for me. Would recommend.You are technically correct...the best kind of correct

If beer came in cucumber sized bottles it would speed things up around here.
Cats was great, Middddnightttttt all alone in the moonlight , reminded me of the 80s in Fleet street.

Originally posted by Lazare View PostI wrote a song for my little one back in October, back when I hadn't a clue wtf was going on, or how to deal with this new magical situation I was in.
She was balling crying one evening and I couldn't figure out what was wrong with her, trying everything to calm her but failing.
She was so upset, yet I was bursting with happiness.
I was singing to her, I always do, random stuff, but I came out with what sounded like a good lyric so I built a bit of a song around it. Just got around to recording it the other day. Lemme know what you think.
https://soundcloud.com/lazare76/pink-teddy-bear-babygroOriginally posted by DeadParrot View Postthe opening hook is catchy, it conveys the love, helplessness and the frustration a new father feels trying to placate a crying infant.
A+ start.
However lyrically it needs some work
Why are you happy?
I want you to be as happy as you make me...might work better
it also suffers a bit with repetitiveness, change up the title hook a bit on repeat
You have a near perfect rhyming couplet to open up the song.
Why are you crying? I really go to know.....use the existing rhyming to suggest other things you have tried..
e.g
Will I put on the telly and together we watch, that piggy show? (peppa pig)
I know your upset and it upsets me, does it hurt to grow?
Also, stop trying to go to a higher and higher octave, it would work better if you broke a note here and there
.
I like it a lot. Great effort, and i like you going into the high register too.
I hate pricks that can sing and play the guitar tho. So fucking jealous!!

Yeah i agree with this, but's only 2.30 minutes long and it's more of a lullaby so that's repetitiveness all over! If it's 4 mins long, i've add more verses and go back to your course of 'Why are you crying...'

Got knocked off my bike this morning by a moronic bollocks of a taxi driver. Fucking prick never looks up at all and drives straight out of the station, I only caught a tip off the side of his piece of shit taxi but ended up in a heap on the ground picking bits of road out of my knee arm and hands.
Would have been annoyed at the stupidity and incompetence if it was an inexperienced driver but a fucking taxi driver who is making his living from driving FFS!Turning millions into thousands

A few times now, including yesterday a taxi driver has just sped up to over take me and pull infront of me to get somebody putting their hand out, I have to jam on the breaks hard and chant must not beat that man in my head.

Originally posted by Tar.Aldarion View PostHope you're ok? When that happened to my ex we got his insurance and police involved, got her a new bike anyway but the main thing is you sometimes don't know how hurt you or your bike is for a while and may think everything is fine.
The bike is a bit off straight between the handlebars and the front wheel, hopefully I can get it to the shop tonight to have them look at it. I'm signed up for a triathlon on the 26th and need to get a decent few miles on the road between here and there.Last edited by Strewelpeter; 09-07-15, 10:07.Turning millions into thousands

On the subject of terrible jokes, I only recently learned that 'Why did the chicken cross the road?' is an actual joke with the 'other side' being heaven and the assumption being that he gets run over.
I've asked a lot of people if they 'got it' before I explained it, and most people didn't.

I was flagging a taxi after a night out a few months ago. Dude was cruising along at 50/60 kmph and saw me late. He slammed the break and stopped in the middle of the road. A dude driving a new Volvo misses him by inches and he is then rear ended by the car behind him. I hopped in half in shock and said something along the lines of 'jesus christ that was insane'. The taxi driver hadn't even noticed the crash 10 feet behind him and when a told him what happened he proceeded to lecture me on the importance of observation. He surmised by saying that there were an awful lot of inconsiderate drivers out there.

For the sake of balance a cyclist shot out in front of me at a roundabout outside Clonmel at the weekend. If I hadn't been ultra focused on getting the fuck out of that bastard county there would have been carnage. He had all the right gear on though so I am sure he was probably in the right.Last edited by shano1888; 09-07-15, 10:58.

Tales from the Lough;
A ghillie friend of mine had a yank out trout fishing and told him that Lough Erne trout were good fighters. A while later yank's rod bends gently into a fish and as he started to reel it the rod buckled over. Guy was doing the wow, man, wow dialogue as he attempted to bring it in. Just before it broke surface ghillie netted a trout about 12 inches long. The yank was speechless just staring at the little trout in the net before saying in disbelief. "Wow, they sure do fight" . The Ghillie didnt tell him that a pike had grabbed the trout and let it go just before reaching surface.

Isn't it one of the first jokes you hear when you're a kid? How the hell would a kid know that 'the other side' refers to death/going to heaven?!
