    Why would you not question the price of anything you buy? It's your money like

    Because 20c from €5.20 is less than 4% - and my time and peace of mind is worth way more to me than the odd 20c.

    But, be honest you're not doing it to save 20c, you're doing it to stand out or be noticed.

    To "Jar someone" or to give one a "jarring" in the northern part of Ireland commonly means to apprehend them, or in Dublinese "to give out" to someone, or to question someone.

    The only reason I know this is because a lad from that neck of the woods house shared with us at uni.

    I always do. In a place that's 5.20 a pint, I only give them a fiver for it. Haggle the fcuk out of them.Most don't jar me for the twenty cents, but I tip them it anyway.


    They might not jar you for the twenty cents but I'd say they'd love to bottle you instead!!

    Sorry I'll get my coat....

    Tip of the mickey ran around the head of a warm pint glass before pouring the pint might be an effective revenge act for a vindictive barman dealing with 'jarring'. Or acting the bollix as it's more commonly known.

    I've seen it done whilst going to the other tap as the keg was empty on the tap facing said bollix.

    That's not the way you do it.

    You say, I suppose you need two fivers down this way or some such. They are put on the spot and say no a fiver is grand, you give them six Euro, everybody is happy

    So you act the bollix because the pub charges 5.20 for a pint, and then you pay 6.00 for it anyway? Wtf is the point? :confused:

    Love when the pints are €5 cause it's easy to pay and you get decent change back not a load of coins if you say hand over €6 drink for a €5.60 drink etc

    Jarred = the act of ateing the head of somebody.

    It's in the bucking dictionary.

    Probably

    Cheap.Cavan.Cuunt. If you don't like the prices at the establishment then drink elsewhere or at home or not at all.

    Just cause its jarring?
    Whatever the fùck jarring is

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    I do.

    If you had a pub, and you could sell two pints for a tenner or one for 5.20, which would you go for?

    Two for twelve Euro are better again but there aren't many philanthropists like me around.
