What's with this "I've not had" shyte?

Biggest lickspittle on boardz

I see this creeping in to use recently.
'I've not done...' or 'I've not had'...

This isn't fcuking Coronation Street. This is Ireland.

We say have not, or haven't.

Feicim go bhfuil sé seo in úsáid le déanaí. 'Níl mé déanta ...' nó 'ní raibh mé' ...

Ní hé seo an Coronation Street. Is é seo Éire.

Deirimid nach bhfuil, nó nach bhfuil.

Plaisteacha Paddy bashterds atá sibh.

Did you mean to say you hear it creeping in lately?

This isn't fcuking synesthesia. This is Ireland.

We don't see words, we hear them.

And if you're only measure of popular vernacular is After Hours contributors then I suggest you open your front door and, wait for it.... go outside.

OMG....like.

If I ever hear "I was stood" or "I was sat", I will be going on a murderous rampage

Someone more energetic than me please explain to this guy what the apostrophe in "I've" stands for.

When he hit the floor, I was sat there.

Except the translation is rather flat by comparison. In the original, you get a sense of shock. The man hitting the floor is what drives the sentence. In the translation the sentence begins with you sitting down, which is uninteresting, and it has the man falling on the floor, instead of hitting it, which is less dramatic.

I realise how anal I'm being but there's a reason why many great authors have tried and failed to write 'everyday' dialogue.

Even if it be "I was stood....down from military service after the war" or "I was sat....on by a concrete elephant. It was wuite painful"

So, nothing is as bad as starting sentences with an unnecessary "so".

So, like this.

So, now I'm off to the shops.

You too, pal.

What I utterly detest is "I'm loving this" or "I'm liking that". What the hell happened to "I love" and"I like"?
And while I'm at it, speaking of past events in the present tense should be a Capital Offence.

I agree with you let the other shytes get over themselves!

Joking aside, sounds brutal imo. Good friend of mine has returned from the UK after a few years over there . He's at it all the time.

I think it's all the guys returning from UK.

They all say craic now too so it works both ways

Any fooker that says "Wallaa" should be summararily executed too.

"owning" is a new one too. Have you got a problem? Is it bothering you? Here's my advice, you have to "own" it.

Very American so it is.

On boards.ie, you would SEE (or read) words. You wouldn't HEAR them. So I was grammatically correct.

I was thinking something similar. Although I quite like the English when they say it.

But for us: leave it out

That’s been common in Ireland for generations. What’s more interesting is why Irish people are only getting annoyed now. I have an explanation for that too.

I am sure the OP will take this on board with enthusiasm and, like you, I look forward to his considered observations on the attached document and its effects on his opening presentation in the form of a carefully thought-out rebuttal.

Well the link doesn’t rebutt the op, to be fair.

Also, "my bad". I have been known to blush when I hear someone say it.

Am I the only one who read "I've not had a shyte" as the thread title? I almost started researching laxatives before clicking into this...

I'm now madly curious as to what "****ugn" could possibly mean.

Do English folk say that?, can't say I've ever noticed.

Yeah, but I had to read yours to do it. I can't even think of any words offhand that end in "ugn", let alone ones that need to be cens- wait, mine appeared with asterixes.

If there's a way to turn that off, I've never found it (or really thought to look for it, tbh!)
