    Never ever go in the front door if you went in the back door first

    Always do your best to get back in front of some smug prick who undertook you earlier on the motorway.

    Keep your eyes straight ahead at the urinal.

    Upon entering said jax and there's 3 urinals, always pick one on the far left or right. NEVER pick the middle one as this will cause an immediate dilemma for the next user.

    And if there's 3 urinals and ones being used (it will always be the one left or right, NEVER the middle one) always take one where there's a urinal between you and the current user.

    2 urinals, one being used, into the wc with ya.

    Acknowledge a fellow motorist when he leaves you out of a side road.

    If you don't you're worse than Hitler.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,824 ✭✭✭vitani


    If you're waiting for a train/bus and want a cigarette, move aside so you're not standing in the middle of the crowd, smoking. Shouldn't need to be spelled out but there's a man at my train station in the morning who always does this.

    Always thank the bus driver - even if they're 40 minutes late and driving 10 km an hour while you're rushing to get in to work.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,939 ✭✭✭ballsymchugh

    Don't **** in the sink or urinal.

    Don't pick your nose or your arse in public.

    Don't ask an overweight woman if she is pregnant.

    sit on the outside bus seat on a bus to avoid sitting beside a stranger

    And if a stranger approaches in the hope of sitting in the empty seat, smile up at them with a broad gimpy grin.

    They'll move on and sit somewhere else or remain standing.

    Works every time. :)

    Never trust a fart!

    Made that mistake last week, thankfully I was taking a jimmy wizz at home at the time with only my jocks on.

    Not me. I would go out out way to sit there in this instance. Oh, and 'Bus Wanker'. :)

    If you realise you're walking in the wrong direction, stop and have a look at your phone before turning around.

    You can't run the risk of letting a complete stranger know you've been walking the wrong way.

    Don't go against or have a different opinion to any of the high horse brigade on Boards :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 469 ✭✭GoldenTickets


    When speaking Irish in a public place (especially on a bus), always conduct your conversation at twice your normal volume. When you speak in Irish it is essential that everyone within earshot knows how clever you are.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭The King of Moo


    Never post an unwritten rule on the internet, as it will stop being unwritten.

    Don't write about unwritten rules in a thread about unspoken rules.
