Good ol' Nottingham

No, I opted out of University after College students pissed me off

You'd have fitted in fine then, because there's twice as many people who think those actions are stupid than actually participate. It's a vocal minority.

What stereotype? You would be hard pressed finding a homosexual with long hair

Come to think of it, I don't know any either.

explain... I'd like to know....

hipsters
depressing basement dwellers
new age hippies
or the musically obsessed

you don't live under a rock, right?

Let me state the obvious though....
Ever since - even at it's absolute recent peek in the 80s - long hair on men has been viewed amongst the straight crowd as something "gay'ish... Long hair belongs to women, not to men. It's got a feminine touch.
That's stereotype number 1.....
Stereotype number 2:
Gays are a lot more tolerant towards the unconventional, unusual, and more positive oriented towards feminine appeal than masculine appeal.

I stayed on to 6th form till 19 then did 2 years in college - by 21 I was tired of education

Your 1st stereotype only applies to kids/teens, your 2nd stereotype is misinformed

Fair enough then, there's no point doing it unless you're prepared to do something worthwhile and if you won't enjoy it you may not finish so...

But yeah the whole "lad lad lad" thing is a very vocal minority. The stupidity is well concentrated. There's then a group a lot larger that generally behaves. There's then a huge hidden fleet of people who don't really do that at all or slightly older students. Uni is really what you make of it, there will be a load of people just like you so whilst everyone changes, you don't have to conform to something vastly different. Not everyone has to become "the lad". You wana do drugs, go do them. You don't want to drink then don't do it.

I found one. It's me.

[Paulosio]

Every week we have idiot drunken students who think it's hilarious and original to kick over all the bins in the backlane behind my house at 3-4 am. People are generally dicks after consuming alcohol.. I think the world would be better off without it.

I know a few too.

i bet you was an emo

[Venziir]

i bet you was an emo

For a guy, who often complains about being stereotyped and ostracized; you sure do love to be an asshat yourself...

If I was I'd be failing quite badly.. I got the gender wrong for one.

Nah, never got into the whole emo thing.

[Deleted]

You have never been to university have you? They are as immature as school kids but fueled by booze.

i get where you're coming from, but it has not been my experience so far. theres a few loud ones that are a right pain, but after the first few weeks most have settled down, the excitement of being away from mum and dad has faded, well that or they ran out of student loan money to spend.

Since when is emo a insult?

In my experience every long haired homosexual was camp, wore black, had crazy highlights. too many piercings, loved accessories, borderline underweight and wore bright pink underwear on show

[JP1o]

Yeah? To put it this way, I was in Newark Hall and we have a rivalry with Southwell Hall which is opposite us (and shit)

Oh southwell hall (oh southwell hall)
Is full of shit (is full of shit)
Oh southwell hall is full of shit... (you can fill in the rest, pretty obvious)


Oh Southwells mum, has got a cock... etc
Oh southwells sis... easy, easy, easy...

Standard drunken student chanting.

"I wish that all the ladies, were buns in the oven, and if I was a baker, I'd cream em by the dozen"
"I wish that all the ladies, were sheep in the long grass, and if I was a welshman, I'd fuck em in the arse"
"I wish that all the ladies, were bells in the belltower, and if I was a ringer, I'd dong em every hour"

Those are the ones that we chanted. Newark, Newark. You can even hear it at the end of the video if you watch it. "You wish, you wish, you wish you were in Cavendish" its a rivalry sort of thing. Like at the football.

all I got from that was the Mackem chant,

"My garden shed (my garden shed)
Is bigger than this (is bigger than this)"

You get the rest
