Sometimes students just buy the cheapest chocolate bars available to them. It’s not a habit to be encouraged but the vitriol is a little over the top.
[quote=“Rocko, post: 781181, member: 1”]Nonsensical policy and the lady at the tills sounds like an arsehole but it was a poor selection and they may have done you a favour.
The Tunnocks Caramel Wafer is a vastly superior product for the same price. You get 9 in a standard pack of Rocky Bars I understand, and only 8 with Tunnocks, but the latter are more than twice the weight and every bite is a nibble at greatness. Rocky Bars are a fine, mediocre offering from the generally excellent Fox’s stable, but I can’t believe they’re anyone’s first choice of anything.[/quote]
I’m presuming you’re over your recent difficulties if you can wax lyrical on the merits of processed chocolate.
It’s too early to rule definitively but I had a solid passing earlier that bodes well.
UL is not a proper university.

We prefer to refer to it as bovine university.
Those cunts who write exam diaries for national newspapers during the Leaving Cert.
If they were anyway normal they’d be like every other poor fucker doing it and cramming frantically, instead of regaling the nation with long winded analysis of how the likes of Irish Paper One was a compelling yet challenging examination. Acting all surprised when they emerge with 600 points then. “Even though I studied four hours a night for three years (even during transition year) I’m just shocked at what I got. Was sure I got only a B1 (at best) in Latin.”
FOAD you cunts. Best of luck to the normal people sitting them.

Dressed to kill is the only way to tackle spectre of Irish Paper I
10/06/2008
EXAM DIARY: I KNOW I’ve come across as pretty confident so far, but I have to tell you that the spectre of Irish shook my resolve this weekend, writes Laura Brady .
[FONT=Verdana] [/FONT]
I took myself to Dublin for a spot of shoe shopping on Saturday - could I silence the guthanna in my head by hiding in Brown Thomas? Surely that nice man in the tall hat would stop Peig at the door. What use has she for Crème de la Mer?
Well I didn’t find the shoes I was looking for and I didn’t overcome my demons either, so I went home and got out the books.
There’s not much you can really study for Irish Paper I, so I tried a new tack - children’s cartoons on TG4. I’ve got a soft spot for one called Avatar , one boy’s lonely struggle against the evil forces of a lost age. It got my Irish juices flowing and put me in the mood for a fight.
After a troubled night’s sleep I woke up early and went online, determined to get the shoes that would kick Irish to the kerb.
I found them on eBay; a divine pair of Christian Louboutim. At $900 (€575) they were practically giving them away. Yes, it’s a ridiculous luxury, but a girl’s gotta do . . . …
Of course they didn’t arrive on time for Irish Paper I, but somewhere in cyberspace they’re mine, and that was comfort enough.
I was dressed to kill the Irish exam, however, in high black heels and tailored pants. I got a few odd looks from my fellow examinees, but this is how I roll. Dress for battle if you want to win. Well you know what? Things couldn’t have gone better. There was even an essay on how shopping’s the new religion. I was right on message.
Today (Irish Paper II) will be tough. Last year I got an A2 in Irish and that cannot happen again.
I think I must be one of the few people in Ireland who still studies Peig, but there’s a good reason - she has slipped so far off the radar nowadays that the questions are increasingly unimaginative, and therefore predictable. I’m usually asked to describe her character, so tonight I’ll be learning off my customised Peig vocab list, which is still taped to the inside of my wardrobe door from last year. Stoic, miserable, anguished and so forth.
As for the poets, I was rather hoping that Cathal Ó Searcaigh would come up, but I guess that’s unlikely now.
I have noticed how the examiners like to steer well clear of topical subjects and anything remotely controversial.
I noticed that the civics paper yesterday for our Junior Certs did not even include a reference to Lisbon. So much for topicality.
That said, it is probably not a bad idea to keep us Leaving Certs out of the news. Goodness knows we have enough to do.
Most of my class were in the exam hall from 9.30am until 5.20pm yesterday - with just a 90-minute break. We have enough to be getting on with.
