Every young Irish person lived through these crazes during the ’90s – from Pokemon to Bebo, we loved them all!

1. Pokemon
Pokemon was probably the biggest craze of the ’90s; from video games to collecting cards, you had to catch them all! Sorry…


pokemon_cards

2. Yu-Gi-Oh!
Slightly less popular (or cool) as Pokemon, nonetheless this craze had a massive following back in the ’90s and early ’00s.

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

3. Polly Pocket
Every girl had a Polly Pocket – and all the cool girls had LOADS of Polly Pockets. Looking back, those small parts cannot be good for kids to play with.

4. Tamagotchi
These were supposed to be like having a pet without actually having a pet. When they got abandoned after a week, we finally realised why we weren’t allowed to get a dog after all.

5. Light-Up runners
These made you run faster. Fact. Not good to wear during Hide n’ Seek.

6. Scooters/Skateboards/Rollerblades
These are all still pretty cool, but our tricks have gotten a little rusty.

scooter-trick

7. Learning to draw this
And it was always way cooler of your name began with an ‘S’!

8. Paper fortune tellers
It didn’t matter how many of these were confiscated, you can always make more.

9.Polyphonic Ringtone
When you give out about teenagers blasting their annoying music over their phones, remember that you used to be one of them. Except you were ten times more annoying because it was ringtones you were blasting!

jamster

10. Crazy Frog

Historically the most annoying sound on the planet.

11. Snake
This amazing game is still so addictive and fun if you can find an old enough Nokia to play the original on!

12. Scoubidou bracelets
They look so intricate but once you get the hang of it you give one to everyone you know. Including you nan.

13. Charity Wristbands
Not just for a good cause, if you had these, you were the coolest kid around.

14. MSN
Aww, staying up till midnight chatting over messenger to ‘that boy’ – we really hope those convos have been deleted forever.

Bebo

We all got a little bit crazy during some of these fads. The only hope can be that you didn’t lose too many friends over any of them, and that scare from the fight you had with your best friend over a Charizard Pokemon card isn’t that noticeable anymore.

Yes, some of this is creepy, but we just can’t help ourselves. Deal.

1. Flick through ALL of their Facebook photos
No matter how far they go back, you always check them all, possibly even more than once .

2. Constantly check when they were last on Facebook/Whatsapp
We know we shouldn’t..but we do.

LaptopClose-GIF3. Check what they’ve ‘Liked’ on Facebook
Well, we need to know if they’re going to be compatible with us or not, don’t we?!

 4. Pretend songs you hear on the radio are about you and your crush
If only you could ACTUALLY sing…

5. Have imaginary conversations with them in your head
We’re not proud of it, but it happens from time to time.

tumblr_inline_n5zu70m8ML1qzk8hc

6. Always thinking of a way to start a conversation
But never actually doing it.

7. Pretend they’re in the bed beside you when you sleep
And in our dreams, they really are. Okay fine, it’s weird, we’ll stop.

Everyone can always tell when someone is an only child. But they never think of the things WE had to deal with as a result of being an only child. It’s not all sunshine and rainbows y’know!

1. Dealing with people who say: “But you don’t seem like an only child”

enter image description here

What does that even mean?

2. Two-player video games are always a bit tricky

enter image description here

Teddy = Player Two. Weep.

3. People who accuse you of being a bit spoilt

enter image description here

Thing is, sometimes you ARE a little selfish…Oh well. Hey, that’s MINE!!

4. The way twins relate to The Parent Trap

enter image description here5. You relate to The Shining

enter image description here

6. You get VERY close with your BFF because they’re like a sibling to you

enter image description here7. In general, you tend to prefer the company of older people

enter image description here

Because kids be cray.

8. ’90s TV shows made you a bit sad. There were so many siblings!

enter image description here9. Apart from Sabrina of course

enter image description here

10. One Christmas you even asked Santa for a little brother

enter image description here

Guess he got stuck in the chimney :(

11. You’re not great at confrontation

enter image description here

You were never wrestled by an older brother, how do people even fight?

12. People LOVE asking you if you had imaginary friends as a kid

enter image description here

In fact you were friends with the friends of those imaginary friends.

13. You’re still learning how ‘housemates’ work

enter image description here

The basics of cohabitation don’t come naturally.

14. At times your parents were a little overbearing

enter image description here15. Small talk kind of ends when people ask: “Do you have siblings?”

enter image description here16. Christmas isn’t a great turn out

enter image description here17. The whole unwrapping of the presents never takes very long

enter image description here18. But in general being an only child is AWESOME

enter image description here19. Only child = the best child!

When @KaneZipperman‘s girlfriend cheated on him, he decided to get the ultimate revenge.

In this epic messaging conversation, Kane replies using hilarious memes and we love it!

While we do think he may have been a bit harsh, we reckon he was pretty hurt by the whole thing.

Plus, it really made us laugh!

Don’t lie, you have done each and every one of these at least once during your holliers.

1. Letting everyone know you have arrived safely
Whether you check-in online or text your mammy, there is a serious guilt if you do not instantly let people know you are there safely once your plane hits the runway.

giphy2. Complaining about the weather
“Jeeeeesus lads, it’s humid!” You’d miss the clear Irish air all the same, like.

its-too-hot3. Lathering on the factor 50
Because sunburn hurts, that’s why.

Sunburn+Meme4. Asking where all the tourist attractions are
There’s no feckin shame in asking!

giphy5. Dressing like a tourist
Yup, we see you, with your massive hat and birkenstocks. It’s like seeing a North Face jacket in Ireland and instantly knowing it’s an American tourist.

b1020568ce51b23988514d5458b90f1555908e21918ddd1e93831ed3ca97e050

6. Eating the same food you do at home
“‘I’ll have the bacon and cabbage please.”

butter-food7. Assuming everyone speaks English
Just because you speak louder, doesn’t mean they understand you any more.

loud-noises

8. “Sure, you wouldn’t see that in Ireland now”
All that kissing and cuddling – Jaysis!

giphy9. Buying crappy souvenirs
Sure everyone loves a key ring!

4855709910. Speaking Irish
You haven’t a word, except “amadan,” which incidentally, is the only one you need.

11. Going to Irish pubs
You leave Ireland just to spend your entire holiday in a place that looks exactly like your local.

SHOWBIZ Simpsons 112. Doing the country proud
We have a reputation for drinking and when we go abroad, we feel the need to reaffirm it. This is usually done in the form of drinking so much that you blackout for the rest of the  holiday.

So remember when Lily Allen said she turned down the role of Yara Greyjoy in Game of Thrones?

The singer explained that the role would have meant she would have to do some erm, uncomfortable scenes with her brother Alfie Allen.

Well, according to Alfie, the whole thing never happened!

We have a question; WHY would you lie about that?

Alfie said: “The only thing I am going to say on that is that it’s not true. And also Gemma Whelan was always their first choice for the part. And she’s fantastic. And that’s the only thing I’m going to say about that.”

So, is he saying Lily lied about it then? By the sounds of it, yes!

Looks like there’s a bit of sibling rivalry here…

Some of these may seem tame enough, but if you really think about it, they’re mental date ideas.

1. The cinema
Sitting beside a stranger in the dark for nearly three hours? What if the theatre is empty? How creepy is that?!

tumblr_msmy4nJyNs1s6rvo4o1_5002. Dinner
People seem to think it’s normal to go on a first date and EAT in front of someone you are trying to seduce. Spinach in your teeth or snorting your drink are defo not good looks.

tumblr_inline_n0bziiJdEQ1qh9x31

3. Clubbing
You can’t hear your date and there is some randomer shoving his ass into you. Your elbows are sticky from leaning on the bar for what felt like 3 hours and at this stage, home is looking good.

tumblr_n25knrmGcw1s7zl51o1_2504. Local pub
Unless you want to risk your parents cooing over your potential new beau, leave the local OUT of the first date plans. 

tumblr_n39gpvUP8M1syhampo3_500

5. Cosy night-in
This may seem like a lovely idea, until you almost burn the house down after one too many glasses of red wine. To calm your nerves, obvs.

tumblr_my7gygWnz81s7mhoro1_5006. The zoo
There is not enough entertainment at the zoo to stop those awkward silences. Especially when you reveal yourself as an Animal Planet geek and things starts to look bleak.

You’ve never gone on a hike in your life and now your trying to pass yourself off as the next Bear Grylls. This isn’t gonna go well girl!

tumblr_n2ss4jemw21qb6v6ro2_400

8. Family meetings
If you do this on a first date, it is guaranteed to be your last.

tumblr_mh1r04tcl31r0yq4zo1_5009. Swim date
You accidentally slip and your top falls down. Great, they’ve seen your boobs on the first date.

Public transport is never easy. But these people make it ten thousand times worse.

 1. The phone person
Who needs to have a two-hour conversation on a bus? Seriously?

2. The raver
Prodigy at 6.30am? And is that red bull we smell? Good Lord. More power to them.

 3. The PDA couple
What ARE they doing back there? Judging by the sounds, we feel we’re better off not knowing. *shudder*

4. School children
Teenagers scare the crap out of us. The screaming, the loud music, the scarily heavy bags that could kill us in one sudden turn.

5. The person who needs a seat for their bag
Is there anyone more rude in this world than the person that gives you a dirty look as they move their bag from the empty seat? Do they think we WANT to sit next to them? That ANY of this is our choice?!

6. The smelly person

Men are a conundrum.

Here are some of the typical things you may hear them say – and more importantly, what they actually mean when they say them.

1. He fancies you
If he says: So maybe we could go for a walk or a coffee?
He actually means: I think you’re really hot and want to ask you out, but I’m of a nervous disposition.

confession

2. I don’t really like you in that way
If he says: You’re a really nice person
He actually means: See ya!

Beaker

3. I need you to stick around
If he says: Let’s be friends
He actually means: You’re not my type, but could you set me up with your hot friend?

4. Not so serious
If he says: We’re seeing each other
He actually means: You’re his first choice but there may be someone else involved.

oh_boy_gif

5. When he wants sex
If he says: This is our fourth date, isn’t it?
He actually means: I WANT SEX

6. Player
If he says: I don’t want anything serious
He actually means: Friends with benefits?chattanooga-choo-choo-dance-o

7. Jealousy
If he says: How many guys have you been with?
He actually means: I’m the best, right?

8. It’s getting serious…
If he says: Introduces you as his girlfriend
He actually means: He no longer introduces you as his “friend” and he more than likely wants you to meet his friends, family etc. Are YOU ready? my-friends-reaction-when-i-asked-why-he-is-still-with-his-bitch-girlfriend-63598

It’s been a great weekend – but now you need damage control.

It’s time to treat your purse, and body the way it deserves after the weekend. Here’s how to survive the bank holiday crisis:

1. Plan out your finances
You spent a lot of money this weekend. Plan your meals, hit up Aldi and DO NOT attempt to stop off at the shop for Revels after work.

1253527972_money2. Leave your bank card at home!
You know exactly how much cash you need for college or work. Bring that and just that.

i_dont_understand_bus_lanes_why_do_poor_people_have_to_get_to_places_quicker_than_i_do_by_jeremy_clarkson3. Carry a litre bottle of water with you
Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate and you’ll be back to your old self in no time!

k4. Fight off the fear!
Be mindful of your actions and you won’t have anything to fear! Simples!

lll2. “Spirits before beer or you’ll be on your ear.”
You’ll remember that next time, won’t you…

gg1. Down a pint of milk
If your weekend STILL isn’t over, drink some milk. ‘Twill do you the world of good.

Ah college, you served us well. Now that we have entered the dreaded real world, we have come to appreciate the time we spent in college, lazing away and occasionally strolling around the library.

Here are some of the things we are still mourning about college life:

1. It’s still socially acceptable to be an immature eejit
Not a girl, not yet a woman.

12. College is the last time you’ll have absolutely zero responsibility
The only task you have is to pass your exams, everything else ultimately ends up in the care of someone else.

23. It’s okay to scrounge off your parents
You can call up your parents and ask them for rent (beer) money without hesitation, and they will usually give in to your request.

34. You don’t mind drinking cheap beer and vodka
Tesco finest vodka and gin and maybe some Buckfast for good measure.

image505. You don’t work a full-time job
Because you can’t. Hello, we have tutorials. Zzz…

u6. Having the freedom to come and go as you please
Missed a lecture? It’s graaaaand, you’ll totally make it next week. But you miss work ONE time and they freak. What’s the deal?

giphy7. Not having mind-crushing hangovers
Remember when you could down a naggin and wake up singing? Us neither, puuuke!

l

8. It was still somewhat somewhat acceptable to take weird drunken photos.
Now you’ll never get hired if these hit your newsfeed…

Drunk-People-horse9. You enjoy living weekend to weekend
Before you started working full time, you could party anytime you like, now it’s strictly Friday and Saturday nights. How dull.

giphy10. 4 months off in the summer
Ah, them were the days. This gem even inspired a lot of us to become teachers, you know.
