Redditor Tinatinatinatina‘s sister has been “teaching math in English to 4th graders in China. Bearing in mind that ‘<‘ and ‘>’ are often used as quotation marks in certain languages, you can understand the misunderstanding.
We chose to believe, however, that the kid in question was simply being awesome.

It appears to be primary season in student politics and this likable enough fellow is Paddy Guiney, one of four candidates hoping to become Campaign and Communications Officer for UCD Students’ Union.
In the manner of that Dublin Airport Terminal 2 advert (expertly lampooned by Barry Murphy), Paddy lists off the great things about UCD including its alumni. It all starts to wobble as we are reminded the college has “given the the world a chairman of Goldman Sachs” (cheers) and positively wibbles as he brags: “And we’ve given Irish men (pause for snigger) Rosanna Davison.” At which point the desire to bomb Belfield becomes overpowering.
Thanks UCDlilly
COMEDY DUO The Rubberbandits have taken a big step towards UK success after Channel 4 ordered a 30-minute broadcast pilot off the back of their online music videos.
Shot in Limerick, it will be the first Irish-made sitcom for the channel since Father Ted .The hip-hop comedians – Blind Boy Boat Club, or Boatboy, and Mr Chrome – are the first graduates from C4’s Comedy Blaps grassroots initiative, after three short videos posted on Channel 4’s website attracted more than 1.4 million views between them.
Made by Dublin production company Sideline and directed by Declan Lowney, who worked on Father Ted and Little Britain , the same team is making the pilot, which airs later this year.
