    Out for a few last night, am a bit of a Legoman now. Just wanted to declare that. I can't very well stand up here in work and shout

    "I had an a*se load of beer last night so leave me the f*ck alone you pig f*ck*n hoorbags"

    so I'm rantin here instead.

    Anyone else in this boat (on a sea of alcohol)?

    It depends on if you fake a deep voice or not.

    What in the fuck is a "legoman"?

    And no, I'm sorry but I don't get hangovers. If I drink up to two litres of rum I'll be fine the next day, two to three I'll feel a tad queasy alright and anything more than that I may need to vomit the next morning. But after that I'll be fine again, it doesn't last long. I'll be up cooking eggs and bacon the next morning as everyone else groans and sheilds thier eyes from the sunlight. I'm enjoying it while it lasts.

    <sigh>

    A lego man is in bits. I am also in bits (due to the above stated reason), thus my saying "I am a legoman" is a simile of the fact that I'm hungover.

    Incorrect.

    A lego mans head, hands and legs all come off. Thus, he's in bits.

    I'm like a flatpack book cabinet doesn't have quite the same edge as saying I'm like lego tho.

    People do tend to call me Nessa. :( A lot. Or Lisa. Or sometimes Melissa or Anita or even one time Melinda.

    I love all your uniquely Irish sayings. "Wrecks me head" "In bits" "Off your rocker" "Mad yolk" "Bleedin' rapid". When I first heard "What's the story?" I hadn't a clue how to answer it! From experience the answer seems to be "Fuck all, man. You?"

    I'm not sure if these are Irish or just Dublish as I live in Dublin so hear more opf these. I do know a Wexfordonian word too though. It's "quare" and it means "very". ;)

    (No, I'm not a language student)

    Yes way, S. Now kindly inflate my ego and say, "You were correct". :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,432 ✭✭✭Steve_o


    Stickle Bricks FTW....:D

    Also, i'm disappointed that the sacred name of Lego is being associated with a hangover....FOR SHAME!!!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 442 ✭✭Defenestrate


    After Hours is full of disappointments today. First, a 'Nice Check-Out Assistants' topic without pictures of hot wimmins and now, a Lego topic without Lego. Quite frankly I'm upset! :(

    A legoman is all those parts put together. On their own they're just bits, so the phrase would be "I'm a deconstructed Legoman."

    Using IKEA could only be used when you want to imply that you're in bits and cheap, ie had been drinking Scrumpy in a field.

    "I'm WTC" or "I'm David Gest" would be better phrases, IMO.

    I'll say it! You could pull the hands out of the arms, the arms out of the sockets, the head off the torso and the legs came off too. You could also take each leg off the hip thing individually. :D

    Do people actually say those phrases? Sounds like something you would hear straight from the mouth of a douche bag.

    Say what? Explain that one more time there champ.

    A Legoman that is taken apart is deemed in bits.

    Nice one Parsley ;)

    No, they're just possible replacements that fit in better that the legoman analogy, since those things are actually in bits.

    But he didn't say he was a legoman in bits. He said he was legoman, which is just one bit. See? :P
