As kids get older their IQ becomes more closely correlated with that of their parents. If those tests are correlated with IQ then it's the fault of your genes Satnav. Though really it's the fault of your parents' genes. I would phone them up and lamp them out of it after a bottle of vino in a few hours.

Yet another Chelsea reject has signed for a rival.
Expect Lukaku to sign for Chelsea on the 1st, 2nd or 3rd of July for silly money and watch Solanke be the new Sturridge. Gotta give him a couple of years though, like Chelsea should have.
Watch out for the next best CB being Andreas Christensen too. tis a lock.

I've heard eq (emotional quotient/peoples skills) is as or more important in future success than academic results (not to takeaway from academic results this term.)
tl;dr, if she sticks with you and picks up a few tips on how to engage and charm the pants off everyone in the room - she will be set.Last edited by Lord Sir Banter; 23-06-17, 01:31.X can be anything, any number, that is what’s CRAZY about X.

Do they drop scores as they get older ?
I am not liking the, he is only relatively happy!
I kept asking all week when are they posting results , think I was a bit too eagar as she went to him after school before he posted and asked him privately for her results and she told me with a bit of a scowl on the face , I obv said shur thats great and I'll have a look at report and get her a treat if im happy. She did great overall her report was fantastic great marks on all subjects just kinda peeved no 8s or 9s etc
SPOILER
Scored highest on the important bit. I can't remember any of my school test results but I do appreciate all the great friends i made.

There is a significant amount of people who didnt put the graft into getting the pieces of paper who end up having the same things as the people who did, when their working lives are said and done.
Then you have slightly autistic people like yourself, lucky cunts and people who are actually clever.

If the French squad played in England or Ireland, you would be all over that 10\1 as the talent is there, the structure of the game is the problem."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

Also last night in the pub there was a fella beside me in a tux.
Enquired what the party was because there was a group of them.
Graduation.
Geology
I said I hope it's not in oil exploration (guy I went to school with spent forever doing a PhD and was looking forward to finally cashing in just as oil crashed)
"No I'm not scummy enough for that"
"Oh eh wow that's some guyswifejob"
"I'm going into mining"
"Rare earth metals?"
"Yeah"
Me left internally thinking wtf mate

Looks like the Government and advisors got the AIB share price spot on to both provide a bit of value and avoid the 'giveaway!' screams from the detractors - floated at 4.40, current price 4.71 in conditional trading. Got the full 10k allocation as well, which I was surprised about but I guess many small time investors were worried about another Eircom or something. Need to decide if I'll sell the lot today or hold on to some for the future; I'm probably too cautious to hold such a chunk in a single company when ETFs are available.

Originally posted by careca View PostIs that right for 3 draws? Do you just forget first draw because number came out and then you think about possibilities of it happening again?
If we wanted the odds on a specific number being the bonus three draws in a row then it would be 48/1 x 48/1 x 48/1 which is into six figure odds.
I'm sure the Herald would go with the bigger number anyway.

3 just over 2 over 1 imo although not much between 2 and 3.
I lot of that online re the finale but I thought it was close to flawless. The leading woman was good alright but no Dunst who was just so believable lto.
Some show though.

What weird small thing would people do if rich? I'd put on new socks every day.
I would instantly turn into a detestable cunt if I was suddenly 'rich rich'. No point in pretending otherwise. Reckon it would take me about 3 weeks to start to believe I deserved my wealth and about the same again to start viewing my former middle class brethren as total fucking plebs. No matter how much it was I would blow it all.
One day sure.

Making my way through S02 now and I'm surprised at how good it is at capturing the books. Some interesting changes in the background stories but I can see why they make them.
I had a quick look into Chungking Mansions (from the Nine Dragons book) when I was in Kowloon, it doesn't seem quite as terrible as in the book.

Originally posted by Denny Crane View PostWhat kind of socks? Bought some expensive cashmere ones, but not sure they're worth it. Might as well have got some from Gammarelli.
At first they would hit up TK Maxx until I really made it. I'd not so much as inquire as to what the socks even were, I'd find out organically what I want more of, a simple yes or no would decide if that sock type ever graced my foot again.
I'm not sure of the benefit of very upper end socks yet, there seems to be a fall off and they quickly feel like any other sock. I'm yet to be wowed.
Of course sock manufacturers could make appointments for my endorsement as I'd now be known as a sock aficionado, it would be Wolf of wall street "sell me this pen"
As for underwear I don't see myself straying from Björn Borg due to them bringing my sexiness and comfort up tenfold.Last edited by Tar.Aldarion; 23-06-17, 11:40.

I am very interested in your idea and would have a house next to yours.
I frequent On the Pigs Back on Capel St not just for their amazing vegan burger but also because they are the only place in Dublin that serves coke at the right temperature. They also have chilled glasses.
It's an issue close to my heart. If my rich neighbour Richie Rich had such amenities all the better.

I like your style, it reminds me of somebody that would turn one thing upside-down in every house he visited, just to fuck with them.
Well you'd have to rethink you're whole sock paradigm, no longer would you have concerns about durability, smell/moisture retention by the end of the day, you'd simply not care. Obviously a lot of socks are pout for me, merino, cashmere and so on. I'd have a person dedicated to my walk-in sock wardrobe stocking it with a full range of stockings:

Unless of course we go drug cartel style where the people working for me are all female and they have to do it naked so there is nowhere to conceal money they are stealing, apart from internal concealment of course...

To anyone who had planned to play this weekend - I'm gonna postpone the IPB Poker Series 2017 due to the issues we (GGPoker) are having processing Irish credit card payments; our card processor has had widespread problems this week unfortunately
It wouldn't be fair to have the series open to Skrill/Neteller account holders only. Our payment methods options should improve greatly in the near future (more processors and more methods) so I'll run the exact same series once these are rolled out and assuming people are happy to get involved at that point.
I'm again sorry for those who had planned to get involved and apologise to those who tried to deposit using their cards
