What immediately screams "tosser" to you?

Jeremy Sproket

People who use the Irish language version of their name.

For example, people who were born, christened and registered as Paul Murphy, for example, who start going by Pól Ó'Murachú.

Are you still a 27 year old or whatever Swedish girl?

hamburgham

People who don’t let their dog do any sniffing when out and turn the ‘walk’ into a forced march for the dog.

Jim_Hodge

Diarmuid Sproicéad has a certain ring to it.

I don't like it when people just switch to the Irish version of their name but it's their choice and doesn't make them tossers.

StreetLight

Anyone who pronounces the word definitely as 'defin-eye-tely'.

So people doing the smallest bit to reclaim our culture?

Actually; those who piss on Irish culture. As if British subjugation didn't damage it enough

Moghead

People who constantly go on about "the woke" like some kind of boogeyman.

I don't consider myself woke or anti woke but in my experience those who bemoan wokness are tossers.

retalivity

People with any of the following:

• D4 mid-atlantic accents
• a North Face jacket
• Grey tracksuit bottoms
• an Audi or BMW
• Linkedin pronouns
• Face tattoos
• a fag hanging out of their mouth while heavily pregnant

Goes double for the German font reg on the Audi/BMW

Leg End Reject

People who talk themselves up - how intelligent, wealthy, successful they are. Bonus points if they're rude to those they consider beneath them.

Conversely, people who poor mouth to take advantage of others, especially when they add in imaginary drama and misfortune.

It's ok to be average, life isn't a competition.

Jim_Hodge

People who are all sweetness and light to those they want something from but are rude and insensitive to everybody else.

All Gardai don't have body cams yet.

Jim_Hodge

Is tosser a unisex term?

StevenToast

Any male with a haircut that took longer than 10minutes.....anyone trying to look like theyre from peaky blinders or knacker mcgregor.....i dont know what they call it....fade or some shìt...

Give me short back and sides...bit of scissors....get me out of there...

hynesie08

If you're not in work and I can see your lanyard, no one cares dickbag.

NIMAN

Own a dangerous dog breed.

BrianD3

Trilby and Fedora hats

For an extreme example, see the smug wnaker in the Mr Green ads.

Also lads smoking huge cigars who seem to think they're Tony Montana. Usually have half their shirt buttons undone too.

Be right back

Those who have a big set of keys hanging off their belt/ waistband..

Even worse. People who loudly and demonstratively speak Irish to their kids in public. Most middle class thing ever.

screamer

Tosser is a male te to me, so Floppy hair, black shirts, scarves, novelty or brightly coloured socks, Mercedes Benz driver and a gobshite who goes around public areas with their phone on speaker. Oh and lastly the brown shoe brown belt brigade, tossers all.

Donald Trump

Electorate too

Glencarraig

Anything with the name Healy Rae

People who throw rubbish out their car

Hoody over the head in gym’s

Psychlops

People that add pronouns to their bio or whatever.

Larbre34

Smoking hash on the street / park / train station.

I'd also second the 'no socks'. Male humans over the age of about 6, have no excuse for not wearing socks with long trousers, ever.

As for this, it should be a capital offence...

cj maxx

Manbags slung over their shoulder. Twat !

4Ad

If they're white honkeys from Rathmines, yes, but not black people or rastafarians.

You take time for a bit of scissors action? Pfft, buzzcut, like a REAL man 😂

‘Skin fade’ btw, but I know the Hitler Youth and Conor McScumbag style you mean 😁

Tossers? I dunno, like men in slim fitting suits drive me bananas, but I dunno, it’s just cos they look a bit shìt, tosser seems more of a personality trait 🤔

Jim_Hodge

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/120222086#Comment_120222086

I'd certainly agree that tosser is a personality trait rather than a matter of appearance. Many of the greatest tossers look just like any other person and can be any age.

GIMP

My own haircut games less than 10 mins, I’m female… alas a bit thin on crop

Be right back

Those who snap their fingers at wait staff.

Cybersecurity people love to hang tons of stickers, labels, emblems, badges, etc about their equipment & person, competing for tosser of the year. If anyone has heard of DefCon (Google it) it could be re-titled TosserCon

Atlantic Dawn

People who tell you they have an EyePhone rather than just say jaysus phone.

Neck/face tattoo's unless you have over €5 million to take out of the bank tomorrow.

People using yachting/sail bags as every day bags.

Men dying their hair/beard where it's clear they basically bought a variant of Valspar Jet Black and lobbed it on.

Any grown man who goes by initials as their first name JP/PJ etc, real name usually turns out to be something unrelated like Marcus.
