People who say mom or mum should be pelted with balls of their own shіt

Seriously, it's "mam or ma", NOT fucking mum or mom. You are NOT American and you are NOT British. To a certain extent, I can understand mum being uttered ... but mom .....?? fuck right off you transatlantic **** bag.

If you're American or British living in Ireland, then fine, otherwise say MAM or MA!

This is Ireland.

People who say people should be pelted with balls of their own sh1t, should be pelted with their Mom's balls.

Most of how Irish people speak is British English tinged with some Americanisms. And a tiny bit of hiberno English.

Why concentrate on this?

What is it that spurs a person to create such a **** thread

KingBrian2

It is usually homophobia or racism that causes such passionate statements. On an issue like this it boggles the mind.

In Kerry we say Mom. That's what I call my Mom and that's what she calls her Mom.

Ha ha same. She'll always be my mam.

Mammy

My brother and sister both say "Maaa" and it gets more pronounced when they have a few drinks in them. :mad:
However I have discovered that if I reveal to others in our company that the "Maaaa" will get worse as they have a few, the company will start taking the p**s out of them so they stop saying it!:D
Now how to stop the everyday use of it?

Of all the possible prejudices to hold this is bizarre, kind of like hating people for a having different coloured socks. Just won't have it, just won't.

I think the most important question this brings to mind for me is "Who the hell cares?"

Freudiangirl32

My 5 year old son has autism and speech delay so when he talks he sounds very proper and calls me mummy...its cute

My 3 year old says "mam"

I have 2 complete opposites

I would rather be called mummy than mam.

Each to their own

Egyptians say Mummy.

foxatron

Ive been giving this some thought. I personally only say Mam, it would never feel right to say mom or mum. The furthest variant of this would be when I need to communicate with her but she is not in close proximity, it then changes to "Maaaaaaaaaaaam"

my sister in law has four teenage sons, none of whom are even capable of wiping their own arses let alone making themselves something to eat or drink.

It sounds like the Welsh valleys in their house at times.

Three words you'd never expect to see in the same sentence.

Mam for me!
What bothers me more is the 40+ year old woman in work who still calls them mammy and daddy..

DEFTLEFTHAND

We weren't allowed to call her anything else other than Mum. She'd smack you if you did.

__Alex__

Mum

I say 'mammy'. This would probably also displease the OP.

Lots of Irish say 'mum' and always did. Lots of Irish people have an English parent too.
