You can't stand next to an open car boot without someone saying 'you'd get at least 3 bodies in there... yuk yuk'.

I lose the will to live every time I hear that one. What's yours?

Remarks about Dolly Parton's big boobies, usually made by middle aged men. Dolly must be well into her 70's by now ffs.

Irish people moaning about the weather.
You'd think they're used to living in Florida and then suddenly it's like craggy island out there.

OldNotWIse · 26-03-2018 02:38PM

"Broke the internet" or "divided the internet"

"Where it's at" - it's where it IS ffs.

"And then some" - some what??

"Truth be told"

Starting an answer to a question with "so"

And the usual plethora of sh*teology about the weekend, oh sure it's a short week, you won't feel it now, wishing our lives away we are, ah sure we've had no spring, the weekends are getting shorter, any plans for the weekend , did you do anything for the weekend, how was your weekend, looking forward to this long weekend" on and f*cking on and on...

I hate when I'm playing conkers and someone whips out their old chestnut that they polished through the winter. Game Over.

**** who make a complaint about some minor issue and then tack on "no wonder the country's ruined"

How exactly is the fcuking country ruined? How did a late bus or a mother letting her kid run amok in the supermarket contribute to this "ruining" of the country?

How have these minor complaints ruined other countries where they've occurred?

The rain coming down at an angle of 45° and some doddery old gobsh1te says; " Soft day, thank God". It's not "soft"; it's sh1tty, you senile old fcukwit.

Never in my entire life have I ever heard that said.

In response to how are you -

"Can't complain... Well I can but sure who'd listen?"

Boom boom. Even funnier a thousand times later.

Tell me how · 27-03-2018 09:06AM

When away on work trip for a few days or your company has visitors who are staying in the locality and someone mentions any time after five and there's jokes made about "We'll all be drunk by then" or "We'll be having that meeting in the bar" followed by raucous laughter.

I shiver at the thought of going in to the same hotel bar every night and drinking with the same people you've been working with all day and, final nail in coffin here, talking about work.

'Old chestnuts' that drive you mad
