Sayings you'll never tire of.

    Pighead has a few sayings in his armoury that he has used for years now and will probably use til the day he dies. For some people the old "See you later" "Not if I see you first" gag has been washed up for many moons now, but I still use it to this day and it still gives me a chuckle when I use it on my unsuspecting victims.

    Another saying Pighead can be heard using quite often is "The fcuk I am". Like if someone asks me "Are you going to the Justin Timberlake concert in June in the RDS I'll immediately snap back "The fcuk I am". In my head it sounds cool, edgy and best of all its versatile ie if a guard asked me did you make love with Old Farmer McGahons prized Fresian last night I'll reply "The fcuk I did". Subtle difference yet still sounds cool.

    The old timeless sayings are the best in my opinion, give me a "See you later alligator, in a while crocodile" over a "bow chicka wow wow" anyday. People who latch onto these new sayings are quite frankly arseholes, old is gold, new is poo.

    So whats your favourite classic sayings?

    Brilliant one. Pighead absolutely loves that one. Has there ever been a more motivational saying in our lifetime? Don't think so. Apart from maybe "I'll give you a bj if you go to the shop for me". That saying motivates Pighead everytime.

    On and by the way, Beruthial, where is that classy lady I once knew and loved? :(

    Its good but Pighead wants examples so he can gauge the sort of person you are. As my dear old Granny used to say "Never a judge a person by the colour of their shoes, always try and judge them by the sayings they use"

    Like, in what situation would you tell somebody to "blow it out your ar*e!"?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 492 ✭✭The Queen


    in reply to "kiss the fattest part of my ass" - not even with your lips!!

    Why were you referring to yourself in the third person? And the old is gold schtick. Rubbish. Reminds me of a lot of old sconers going off on one about how things were a lot better in the olden days. It's very easy to look back at happier times in hindsight. Anyway, I like the one where for example a slightly peeved parent might ask you what you were going to do with yourself for the day and you reply with something like: "I going to go play football" and they reply with "I'll football you". Brilliant. And fair enough, piggo, I get yer old school sentiments like such, but one must not generalise.

    Sorry if you've heard these:

    She was only a:

    PLUMBER'S daughter but she sure gave my heart a wrench.

    BUTCHER'S daughter but she could REALLY pack Salami!

    STOCKBROKER'S daughter but she could really ride the BULLS!

    TAXI DRIVER'S daughter but she knew how to keep your meter running

    ACCOUNTANT'S daughter but she sure knew how to keep her BOTTOM line profitable.

    FISHMONGER'S daughter she had crabs on her plaice, poor soul.

    ELECTRICIAN'S daughter but she had all the right connections.

    COAL MINER'S daughter but she had a mine of her own.

    MARINE COLONEL'S daughter but she was rotten to the corps.

    ARTIST'S daughter but she knew where to draw the line.

    BUS DRIVER'S daughter but she knew where to get off.

    ARCHITECT'S daughter but she knew all the angles.

    FISHERMAN'S daughter but when she saw my rod she reeled.


    And for the grand finale, the cream of the crop and my personal favourite:
    Ah go ask me Boll0x!

    Listen pal, Pigheads kicking the arse of 30 now and if I wanna be a bit sentimental and dewy eyed about the past then I will be. Pighead takes orders from lots of people but never ever shall I be dictated to by somebody called "potty pete" . Face it buddy, the old sayings are by far the best. Heres an example:

    Old Saying:
    Act in haste, repent in leisure--Beautiful old saying urging us to think before we rush into soomething

    New Saying:
    All I wanna do is Zig a Zig Aah-- Horrible babble by 3 chicks and two lady boys.

    As I said Old is Gold.

    "The cat has a hairy lad now" and "Oh, the haggis is in the oven for sure"

    Both used by a mate of mine while playing poker, usually, if a dangerous looking flop comes up, or if someone is smoking in draw.

    I quite like both.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,263 ✭✭✭yom 1


    One I remember from being a young lad was if my da sent me to the shop he'd say "Dont be there till your back"

    Also love - I wouldnt touch her with your's

    and

    If you took your mickey out to her it would pack its sac and leave home

    Excellent. Sayings slagging off ugly chicks are always welcome. The fact that you responded to Pigheads requets and gave an example for your saying makes it even better. The cool smiley at the end of your post was well merited.

    A few of my reliable phrases

    or when asked to do something -
    I'd sooner lick piss off a nettle.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,246 ✭✭✭✭Dyr


    "shove it up your arse" is good, especially when preceeded by a polite remark

    "would you like a polo mint?"

    "oh no im fine thanks......" then just before polo mint offerer wanders out of earshot you spit "ye can shove em up yer arse"

    hilarity invariably ensues

    I found these old nuggets.....

    I'm as sick as a small hospital
    I'm so hungry I'd eat a small child
    She had a face on her like a well slapped a*se
    Your' re as welcome as a f*rt in a spacesuit
    My mouth's as dry as a nuns cr@ck
    He has rubber-lined pockets so he can steal soup
    He thinks manual labour is a Spanish musician
    As funny as a burning orphanage
    He's so camp, he sh1te tent pegs
    I'm as sick as a plane to Lourdes
    I feel like a boiled sh1te (hungover)
    (when leaving) I'm off like a debs dress
    She had a face on her that would drive rats from a barn
    As busy as the dalkey dole office
    Sweatin' like a paedophile in a Barney suit
    As tight as a nun's knickers
    I'm so horny I'd get up on the crack of dawn
    Up and down like a hoor's knickers
    No show pony but would do for a ride around the house
    Did your mother find out who your father is yet?
    What would ye expect from a pig but a grunt
    I left her with a face like a painters radio
    A mickey the size of a double-value can of Right Guard
    Jaysus, she could breastfeed a crèche
    As fit as a butcher's dog
    She ' s got more chins than a Chinese phone book
    Not even the tide would take her out
    Mother Teresa wouldn 't kiss her
    Daz wouldn't shift her
    Des Kelly wouldn't lay her
    A sniper wouldn't take her out
    Jaysus, ya wouldn't ride her into battle
    If I'd a bag of bruised willies I wouldn't give her one
    She has a face on her like a bulldog that's just licked p*ss off a nettle

    Oh sorry Pighead, it'd be in response to a smart or derogatory comment e.g:

    "That dress makes you look fat"

    Reply

    "Blow it out your ar*e!"

    Rubbish! Sayings have to be free flowing and able to roll of the tongue. It took me about 7 minutes to decipher that shambles you put up.

    For instance heres an example of a free flowing saying "Fear can hold you prisoner, hope can set you free"
    Easy. Icequeen, Pighead shall be keeping an eye out for your future posts. There shall be a re-assessment of your work when you hit 50 posts. On your way.

    "It'd be like throwin' a sausage up O'Connell street".

    Can be used when someone says "I'd ride her" and you are thinking that perhaps plenty more have already done so.

    Of course it is ya big ninny. A saying is "Something that is said". Pighead said Zig aZig Aah, hence it's a saying. Listen potty pete you're dragging this thread way off topic with your spoiling tactics and obvious hidden agenda. As the old saying goes "Mess with fire, and you're gonna get burned"

    Hmm..fair enough. But it's non-sensical. Gibberish really. So it's not a saying in the traditional sense of the meaning. Whatever floats yer boat. Oh..there's one. Or is it?
