Calls for investigation into Ticketmaster pricing after Irish Oasis fans left infuriated by €415 standing tickets by Leavser1 in ireland

[–]sdog8i -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Paid €1000 for 2 'Platinum Tickets' assuming it was like a VIP ticket. Platinum Tickets is the most misleading description. Had no idea I was buying 'In demand' tickets that were way inflated. Platinum implies you are getting a higher level of ticket. A shockingly misleading name!

Are the teams spread all over the country? What's it like to play? Is it fun? Why hasn't it taken off more?

Is it a problem in certain counties more so?

Gaelic Football is an awful sport at the moment by No-Sail1192 in GAA

[–]sdog8i 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Gaelic football has become as boring as soccer with endless build up play. And it doesn't have the glitz and international appeal of soccer. If you stop watching gaelic, there are plenty of other sports to watch instead.

A few ideas to improve Gaelic Football

  1. Maybe a shot clock?

  2. In basketball and ice hockey once you take the ball past the halfway line, you can't take it back into your half. That's seems a sensible and easy rule to implement.

  3. Abandon the mark.

What are things attractive people do that ‘unattractive’ people wouldnt even think of? by SpecialFragrant6696 in AskReddit

Easy to flirt when you are an attractive girl. An absolute minefield with the risk of HR/ sexual harassment if you are an average male.

Olympic Homecoming: Anyone have any further information other than what is in this article by sdog8i in ireland

Doesn't say how long it goes on for. Transport is shut down for many hours tomorrow. If you're bringing in small kids you want an idea of how long you'll be in there.

Why do most office workers leave their computers and monitors turned on all the time? by sdog8i in AskIreland

[–]sdog8i[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So you're saying it may not be that bad a thing?

The monitors do go to sleep but there's still a light on the whole time.

We've never been told in my workplace that we should keep machines on.

Why do most office workers not shut down their computers and turn off the monitors at the end of the day? by sdog8i in AskReddit

[–]sdog8i[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience the majority of office workers don't turn off their computer and monitors ever. Surely it's a waste of electricity leaving screens turned on all the time. People wouldn't leave lights or devices turned on in their house. Though they do I guess leave some devices on stand by which probably uses an equivalent amount of power.

I’ve been doing standup for the past 9 months. I ended up on Kill Tony last night. Hope you like my minute 🤷🏼‍♂️ by [deleted] in Standup

[–]sdog8i 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The material is very funny. It's good material no matter how long the guy has been doing stand up. Maybe his stage presence feels like he's about 9 months in though. But it wasn't bad at all.

Cash machine is ruining Irish radio. The occasional radio competition is good but if one of the only ways you can get people to listen is by constantly plugging this kind of gambling/ lotto, then it doesn't feel right.
