Slippery slope here lads. If you're okay with this OTT "japery", then you are at some level okay with a guy getting his head kicked in outside a nightclub and nobody being accountable for it.

Pranks? Yes they are normal all over the world, in private schools, State ones universities....

Frat initiations...

I don't know enough about this incident to properly comment.

I'm referring to the Irish poster who said that these kinds of stories come out every year in Ireland.

He meant that the stories are commonplace. Kids act the cunt. When it's the rich kids then the papers take the story and run with it, fabricating shit in the process (see my comment on the first page of this thread).

THe incident in the OP, as reported, is clearly too far and the poor girl suffered. Any indiscretion is seized on by the tabloids in particular so that they can run another spoilt rich kids misbehaving story.
Every summer there are stories of 18 year olds on holidays after finishing school getting hammered in Greece or Crete. Every year the stories carry the same connotations of these guys having attended fee-paying or privileged schools.
It's pathetic really from the papers.

Model trolling.

Fair enough, I actually meant some of the bigger kids on here who still see this sort of thing as harmless fun. Once they have children of their own they will understand the feelings this sort of thing can provoke.

I'm all for a bit of a prank. That's not it though. Little girl tied up, distressed etc? You need to know your audience.

First we have the blasé attitude to bullying in schools.
Then we had the shameless trolling of their valiant but limited opponents after the HEC final.
Now we have the same posters trying to justify booing the match officials at rugby matches and blaming their defeat on a multitude of excuses.
It's been a bad week for ladyboy fans.

No trolling from me.
I just speak uncomfortable truths, such as predicting last week that Leinster would choke three years in a row.

Statto
You're not really very good at this so stick to what you're good at, boring the hole off us with semi-relevant stats.

Binge, Nolanator and myself have all been amongst the voices criticising this. It's only DD and Mitty, one of whom spent his formative years in the most homoerotic place in Ireland who seem cool with it, and they're both trolls. And good ones at that too.

I don't perceive you as one of the ex-rugby school heads for some reason, Stats.

Where;d you go, anyway?

The 'Oi!' was to your comment about Clongowes!

You're a Clongowes lad!? Fucking hell. Won't ever turn my back on you, so.

Five pages and nobody's yet blamed Deccie? Feck me, I'd better have a read through the NAMA thread as well.

Camroc's slipping, so he is...

Sorry, man, but Clongowes lads are all such latent gayers it's unreal.

Sorry, man, but Clongowes lads are all such latent gayers it's unreal.

Not in my experience but maybe things have changed since I've left.

The place was about as far as you can get from homo-erotic when I was there anyway.

Latent gayer in trying too hard.


I didn't realise that Clongowes had that rep, although I never really paid any attention to all that inter schools shite. We were tucked away in the countryside and missed most of that.

You really are getting hysterical I only, rightly, blame Deccie for Irelands failings. He has destroyed the reputation and standing of the Irish rugby team.

My last day at school was on an exam day for the rest of the school. The Headmaster made it very clear that if we screwed up people's exams there would be hell to pay in terms of getting a place at uni and so we went out on the football pitches, had a BBQ and went home

We murdered the headmaster and buried his body in a shallow grave in the woods.

Just for the larks.

Larks aren't scavengers and in any case what was a shallow grave to you would probably be quite a deep one for a lark.

I suspect it was mainly the foxes and crows that got him.

Latent?

As in; Declan Kidneys latent limitations, latent?

Whatever Clongownians can be accused of, latency isn't one of them...

As in, each and every one of them has the potential to go gay at any given stage.

Prison rules and all that. They had to do terrible things to survive.
