    Her mother is from Iceland, I think, hence the accent but yeah it does sound a bit wonky.

    Nice sandwichs though.

    I would not mind her buttering my loaf or making a sandwich with her .


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,587 ✭✭✭Pace2008


    Is thst an Icelandic twang? I always though she just had a hideously put-on accent.

    You're right! Very similar.

    IMO both completely fake and put on.

    cant stand her if you ever watch her show she says batter instead of butter


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 447 ✭✭Jay Pentatonic


    I was told she lived in Canada for a while, probably has something to do with it

    She knows her way around a kitchen, and soundproofing isn't as expensive as it used to be

    just sayin


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,706 ✭✭✭fonecrusher1


    Annoying accent but shes kinda hot in a i'd ride her & then take a sneaky poo on her face as she sleeps, waking her up just as it drops on her face sort of way.

    Im sure you know what i mean.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,575 ✭✭✭✭FlutterinBantam


    She could melt a bit of butter on the top of me knob, so she could, and floss it with those teeth.:eek:

    That would do me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,333 ✭✭✭earlyevening


    This is about the third thread I've replied to about RA in the last few months. Cant stand her contrived accent.

    Will never go near an O Briens sandwich place thanks to her.

    Delete as appropriate:

    This semi-famous Irish man/woman is attractive/unattractive - I therefore definitely would/wouldn't shag/touch her/him with mine/yours.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy

    Surely their blandorama sandwiches would have had that same effect long before they hired her to endorse their enterprise?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,417 ✭✭✭reprazant


    She hasn't lived in Dublin since she was 18 do I doubt she has a put on D4/american-twang accent.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 34,567 ✭✭✭✭Biggins


    I'm genuinely guessing this must be a person that appears on RTE?
    Happy to say, I don't watch that station very much at all (mainly cos' its crap) so I wouldn't know her if she stood in front of me.
    As to her voice, never heard it.

    There's nothing "strangely attractive" about her. She is attractive!

    ...That she is an unknown.
    People mention names here and some don't know them automatically so some context with the name would help besides saying she in an advert. One of thousands floating around on air waves!

    She has TV show's and stuff, google her, then tell us whether you'd like to bang her or not, regardless of her flaws, that's usually the way we approach these threads about women in the public eye


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,174 ✭✭✭RhubarbCrumble


    Can't stand the woman, and her awful fake "D4" accent.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,073 ✭✭✭sam34


    i cant stand her

    however i do feel a bit sorry for her, considering who her inlaws are.

    Thats fair enough, cheers for the info.
    I'll give this celeb' a miss and get on with doing other things. :)

    She has spent more time living of Cork than in Dublin.

    She has also spent time in Canada [according to Wiki] and has an Icelandic mother.

    There is more of a chance that she does not have a 'fake D4' accent that just having a mixture of different accents.

    She went to the Ballymaloe cookery school and managed to wrangle her way into Darina Allens sons pants. From this she got herself a book and TV deal.

    Personally I don't think shes a great cook, and her voice is just so effin' painful..
    makes me want to gouge out my eardrums with a "battah"knife..

    I wonder how many different ways we can spell butter as she pronounces it..

    She knows her accent is annoying. She said she wouldn't change it and that's just to piss us off even more.

    UGH! :mad:

    At least, as a 36 year-old, she will never have to worry about her father-in-law making a pass at her?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,333 ✭✭✭earlyevening


    I see there is a Facebook fan site for people who hate her accent.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,739 ✭✭✭✭starbelgrade


    That O'Briens ad is fairly annoying alright - especially that line where she says something like "after years of experience, I know what goes into making a good sandwich".

    What retard doesn't know how to make a nice sandwich? A f*cking 5 year old could make a sandwich that they like.

    And to make it worse, she puts celery in the sandwich. F*cking celery - you may as well put dog sh*t in it just to make it even less apetising.

    I'd still do her though.
