Does anyone say "it's up me ho!e pickin' daisies" anymore?

holystungun9

As per title, for some reason this popped into my head. Haven't heard it in ages. I think it's time to dust it off again. Anyone heard it in the last ten years?

I havent heard that word in years,i remember when i was in 3rd or 4th class we used to go around calling each other a poxy bastrad,for some reason we all got a great kick out of it,think it might have come from one of those smokey and the bandit movies.

This ties into something my friends and I have noticed - the re-emergence of slang from our teens ie. the mid to late '90s.

Last weekend, I lost count of the amount of times we used the words 'shift', 'ride' and 'riding'. :pac: 'Shift', FFS! We're all mid to late twenties! I'm just waiting for people to start saying "Schwing!" again! :P

Kinda off topic (way off topic actually :P) The other day I was on the phone to a friend, when she was hanging up she said TTFN, not to bad you might think, but she actually just said the letters TTFN :rolleyes:

Rant over, continue..:pac:

No, but I have it on good authority, 'Hanging out of my ear singing Geronimo' is making a come back.

In my house, whenever anybody enquired about the whereabouts of anything, that was the standard reply. I can't remember the last time I heard anybody saying it. In fact, I've never seen it typed on the internet before.

Hmm... I think I might hide the remote control tomorrow...

Jesus Wept

I said it just last sunday, just popped into my head too, saw some daisies.

Haven't heard that in years.

Might be a bog town thing though.

Yakult

El Weirdo

No, haven't heard it but will often tell my 6 year old that it is "up Jack's arse picking cherries" when she asks where something is.

Whats wrong with ride and shift? What words would you use for them? Thats what people say around here all the time!

A) Way to not read the first post:rolleyes:
Bog town? Care to elaborate / keep digging a hole for yourself?


And what happened to the rest of it, it was "up me hole pickin' daisies, round the corner, turn to the left"


UMHPD!!

Haven't said that in 20 years but will find a reason to today.

Radharc na Sleibhte

Wanted it to be epic.

So TTFN is Ta Ta For Now?
Why would you replace the words with letters, theyre all one syllable anyway.
Some people really need a kick in the hole in fairness.

philstar

remember back at school on occasions the rough guys use to say to the sissy boys "you're afraid of your sh*t"

tan11ie

Nope haven't heard that saying in years......ya lemon ya, now i haven't used that since i was a teenager ..must bring it back:D

mahamageehad

Lol! Never heard that one, but if someone was bragging about something n you couldn't give a sugar you'd say - "big swing of a hairy mick3y"

I also remember instead of saying how's she going people would ask "How's she cuttin'?"
Your answer would reflect your mood, eg smoothly like a butter knife, or rough as a saw etc

epgc3fyqirnbsx

Haven't heard that one in a while

Another one I aven't heard in a while is "Well you can go and scratch my arse with a broken bottle"

Don't forget the "getting browned off" bit added to the end of it too :pac:

I always liked the sarcastic, "Big swinging dicky" retort when I was younger!
