    Also hate running.
    Did a half marathon 3 years ago.
    Haven't run* once since.

    So fucking boring.

      Tried that, didn't work.

      In fairness though it never worked for me. Could be because I'm on still on Gotham rather than Kodi (have an ATV2 so Kodi isn't great on it and support has been pulled for future releases)

      I'll need to pick up an MK808b box or similar at some point in the near future no doubt.

          where would be a decent place to pick up some cat5 cable (about a metre) in town?
          Preferably between the stephens green luas stop and westmoreland st.
          I'd generally order online but I need it tonight.

          It will just annoy me more than it should paying over a 5er for it
          People say I should be more humble I hope they understand, they don't listen when you mumble

                      Dealz/Argos/one of the big Tesco's like Jervis would probably be the best bets.

                      edit: I remember being really surprised to get a mini hdmi for <€5 from an old man hardware shop on Mary street a while back too, had a decent selection of other stuff.

                            Stephens green has a place called the laptop shop on the top floor which you would presume would have them.

                              Something which blew my mind is that crows are one of the most intelligent animals on the planet. Studies have shown they are capable of a level of logical thinking, forward planning and creativity only normally associated with humans.

                                                Well now you get to decide if the extra cost is worth not having to go looking elsewhere.

                                                If half an hour of your time on Grafton Street worth €20 to avoid.

                                                          Most animal tests are pretty much "wow x was smarter than we thought before" because basically they are not thought much of. Crows are amazingly smart, they make tools, solve problems etc.

                                                          He would also get bored at the stupid questions and answer wrong on purpose to show he was bored, understood the concept of nothing, spoke and understood more than 100 words, made up his own words for objects (he knew what a banana and a cherry were so he called an apple a banerry and so on.

                                                          His last words were "You be good, see you tomorrow. I love you."

At a family party recently I was giving the kid some white chocolate buttons as they are like cocaine to him . anyhoo, as I was offering it to him I said 'body of christ'. She flipped. I got a midlife scolding from the ol dear in full view of the clan. LOLs all round.

Too hot in Malta at the mo but think I'll rejoin the gym at end of month. People in work also doing a half marathon in November. May join, hate running though.

                                                                              I was in the Phoenix Park Sunday to cheer on a few people to the finish line in the Half Ironman.

                                                                              I was shocked at the number of people that were clearly overweight (to the point of being clinically obese) that were competing. There was easily three dozen people that I saw that were overweight/obese in the hour and a half I was there

                                                                                          I recently refused to sell an appletv to a know it all appletv buyer who initially accused me of copying and pasting a previous ad of his for the same item. It was true but i resented his accusation all the same. I condensed his ad down more aptly which really ate him im sure.

                                                                                          He harangued me and told me he was desperate to buy until i eventually broke and agreed to meet and do the deal, all the time pedantic txt jibes of correction in matters of minutiae detail. Selling stuff to strangers is testing alright.

                                                                                          There really isnt anywhere i want to go enough thats worth waiting in airports and travelling to on aeroplanes. Even when you get there you can spend the week without a person engaging you in conversation just once. Your only really just doing what you would do ordinarily only somewhere else.

                                                                                          Only today i dipped the toe in again and was working hard looking at airbnb to see could i go to Killarney for the racing and do you think i could find any place. No chance anywhere available although airbnb isnt exactly a stronghold in the south west. Eventually i found one place but just as it looked acceptable they mentioned they have pets and they describe the pet like its a drawing factor. Then they got clever and said ''we will tell you where best to go but more importantly where to avoid''. Some of them like to say they grow vegetables and your welcome to help pick the vegetables. Like these steak on the stone restaurants that make out your the boss, eh no ill pay you to cook my steak im on my evening off. Okay picking your vegetables is much better than steak on the stone but you know whats going to happen when your plucking vegetables and eggs with them, they will be throwing furtive fleeting glances your way coming across all knowledgeable and showing you the right way to pick them forcing you to retreat and be the underdog using terms like ''oh yeah..ah gotcha'' and then giving them perfunctory credit for being great for growing your own vegetables.

                                                                                          Ah feck that ill just settle for Shelbourne dogs.
