what's the best/worst thing you have ever been called

doulikeit

Was out last night great night woke up on the couch this morning head busting feeling sorry for my self wife came down in awful humor took one look at me and spat this out at me "state of ye lying there ye rotten oul yoke ye" there was venom in it, v funny

poisonated

Some guy called me Philip once. That was pretty horrible.

I was called white trash in England once and spat at from a passing car.

Not the worst but one of the more interesting ones.

Lawrence1895

I was called 'Nazi' a few times in my former workplace

Praetorian Saighdiuir

Daddy - Couldn't be mine, i'm still a virgin!


I have been called everything and anything, although the only thing that annoys me is being called a "wuss".

El Horseboxo

N1gger or spic would probably be the worst. Wasn't even the words so much. But the anger and context they were used. One guy calls me boy genius in work and another older guy calls me dead eye. Nice compliments from some veterans.

Lawrence1895

Oh wait, it says 'best' things as well. 'Heathen', 'Pagan' and 'Atheist', have to be added to the list, even if only the third one is true

My first day working a senior member of staff said i was working like a black man .
I'm still unsure if that's a compliment or an insult. But I've always felt it was very endearing.

On a night out once this drunk woman dropped her phone in front of me and I was genuinely trying to be nice by helping her pick it up.

She took exception though and called me a "curly haired f*ck". I was shocked.

Compliment. Means you are hard working.

It is non PC to say it these days though.

Best thing I suppose when I was called a sliver tongued charmer or the devils best friend for my ability to tempt people so well. Thought that was amusing

Worst? Probably a few things but who tf hangs onto that and keeps that in their head?

castletownman

Oh yeah some lesbian told me once that if she wasn't gay that she'd ride me. I wouldn't mind but I wasn't trying it on with her at the time and she just randomly said it.

I was walking down Abbey Street in Dublin one day when two heroin addicts walked passed. One remarked to the other when passing me,

"Look at this ugly f*cker!*

In my defense, I have to say that neither of them were oil paintings themselves.

My wife once said I was just like her ex-husband during a row once.

Where To

I hate being called early in the morning.

Don't see how it fits in with the lazy black person stereotype though. Can' even keep our generalisations straight.

That awkward situation that goes as follows after someone calls you by a different name:

Me: "My name is actually keith16"

Other person: "I'm really sorry about that"

Me (and everyone else in the Universe ever been in this situation: "Ah don't worry about it, shure I've been called worse"

*Awkward and insincere laughter from all.

I was called back for a second interview

That is because it was from the days of slavery.

"Works like a n1gg3r"

The whole lazy black person thing I know nothing about. Probably some new modern slant of why Lazy Irish people are better than lazy non Irish people and deserve the Dole more. Or something.

Someone at work calls me Starla…cos it's a mix of the word star and my name…I think it's really really nice

In fact…I wanna change my boards name to Starla

I was called a Dub once by a man from Kerry. Still sends a shiver down my spine.

marketty

Just once I'd like someone to call me 'Sir', without adding 'you're making a scene'

somebody once called me a 'funny troll' on here, which is the best compliment and worst insult I've ever had rolled into one

Delighted I was, people are finally starting to see me for what I am.

Next time you argue, tell her she's just like her mother.

That'll teach her.

No it was 'change for a cup of tea' he was looking for. He didn't like my response.

Was walking my girlfriend back to her bus stop from mine today when some aul fella shouts "LESBIANS" as he passes... not the first time we've been mistaken for two women somehow! :rolleyes:

Bad Santa

This is a true story (no really).

Was in town one night a couple of years back and these fools were trying to pull the metal strings off the guitar on Phil Lynott's statue beside Bruxelles there. Myself and a friend pointed out that it wouldn't be too appreciated if they succeeded and least of all by members of his family.

The lads stopped but started mouthing off then and it was getting very close to punches being thrown and then one of them called me a "Ginger Cunt!"

Now, I swear not a ginger hair do I have but what was funny (afterwards at least) was that in the midst of this row, with bouncers trying to separate us, I said (with venomous anger):"Hey, my hair is blonde, alright!"

im the BIGGEST wanker in the world :D:D

I'm no bitch, I maybe a cunt alright but I'm no bitch!

G.K.

too mature, by schoolyard bullies at age 13 or so.

Thought that was just odd.

Bubbly.

I'd rather be called a bitch than bubbly. I'm still angry about it.
