Other ways of saying "that's the best'

    In, NZ, we Irish have a reputation for having a way with words. Today at work a manger asked me for some more phrases for "that's the best thing" e.g. the dog's bollix, the cat's pyjamas and the bees knees. He said I was Irish and should have loads. I actually couldn't think of a single thing and I think the reputation of the Irish in New Zealand could be in jeopardy. :)

    Does anyone else have any more I can dazzle him with tomorrow?

    Its hella awesome

    One thing to note about the term "hella", its use makes you automatically and irrevocably homosexual.

    So be careful..

    The Mae West

    Mae West is old hat. Fred is the wave of the future! Funnily enough Mae/Fred is only really used when something's not the best. e.g. "I'm not feeling the Fred West"

    "That's the Cadillac of <insert category here>" is another one.
    "Cream of the crop"

    Or you could be one of those annoying people who says 'uber' this and 'uber' that.

    It's brand new hat.

    That's the cheese!
    or
    That's the shot!

    Re: Mae West, I've only ever heard this used as a negative ie "I'm not feelin' the Mae West."


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 724 ✭✭✭cock robin


    Thats better than a kick in the arse.
    Sure the good Lord himself could do no better.
    Fannytastic.
    Sure its beyond compare.
