    One that gets said quite a bit around Ardee way is -

    "He is the two ends of a bollox"

    Meaning that he is more than just "a bollox", hes a bollox through and through.
    "The two ends" is used with a lot of different words at the end...

    You can have "The two ends of.....

    a nyuck
    a bollox
    a c*nt
    a bastard
    a larrier
    a git
    a gob****e

    etc.

    I have never really understood why someone is the "two ends" of anything, but it makes some kind of weird sense.

    My old boss used to say that a lot. He was from Carlow and funnily enough he himself was the two end of every negative epithet you could throw at him.

    I wonder which is worse: on a bus to blanch, or on the dart to Bray?

    Loike I dunno roysh!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,799 ✭✭✭Linoge


    The MOST annoying... 'chick'. "Hiya chick" "Are ya going out later chick" "Any news chick" "OK chick" "See ya later chick" and so on and so forth. How annoying. Do I look like a fncking little yellow bird?
    I think this word is made even worse by the fact that it is usually false, bleach blonde, fake tan bitches who talk like that.

    • At the end of the day
    I once shared an office with a guy that used that in pretty much every sentence. No matter if it was work, pub, sports related or whatever.

    It drove the rest of use spare. When slagging didn't work we started to fine him £1 (it was pre-Euro days). We cost him a fortune. Fair dues, he did pay up at the end of the day :)

    The ones that annoy me....

    1)Where an anicdote begins with 'Come here a minute ....' as tho you are in a different house rather than sitting right beside the orator.

    2) I've myself been guilty of saying 'at the end of the day' quite a bit ... tho thankfully not in a David Beckham accent. Must get shock treatment for it.

    3) I used to work with a girl who said the word 'basically' in practically every descriptive sentence she ever formed. After six months of having to sit across the room listening to her on the phone telling every customer how every one of their queries could 'basically' be achieved .... I basically wanted to rip off her head and sh1t down her neck.

    4) The ultimate annoying phase (usually used by Dublin scummers) inserted into conversations is of course 'D'ya know what I mean'?. Well if you could speak English and construct a coherent sentence without the words 'bleedin' or 'jaysus' every 2 seconds then I'm sure I would begin to my friend.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,009 ✭✭✭✭The Muppet


    Well basically what really p's me orf is people that begin every sentence with the words "well basically". This tends to happen frequently when you get some joe in his/her 20 minutes of fame being interviewed on Radio/Television .

    Oh ya, roysh, Lucan, ya.

    Bleeding massive so e is.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 519 ✭✭✭cujimmy


    As far as I am concerned people who use "fillers" of what ever type are either lacking in self confidence or have a limited vocabulary. It tends to be the latter in most cases.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,400 ✭✭✭Maximilian


    I hate the way some English people say "I was sat there"

    Didn't this phrase start in the novel 'The Great Gatsby'?

    And it was mocked in The Simpsons.

    I believe it was episode with Homer tripping on the chili. And he came into the kitchen in the house and Bart was saying to Lisa "So i says to Mabel, i says"..

    :)

    that was a great episode too, with johnny cash as the space coyote.

    I sympathise cayjun tiger. Was on the bus on the way home from cork (was seeing the girlfriend) and there were these scumbag dublin skanger girls down the back of the bus. They weren't making too much of a racket although hearing their annoying accents from time to time was a tad irritating. Anyways after the half way point for some reason one of the girls decided there wasn't enough room down the back of the bus and decided to move half-way up the bus (near me). This was bad enough untill she start talking to her friends down the back of the bus, screaming the place down. 'Ohhhh Jaysis i know ye... den he went der and was ridin yer wan and then i said here you roiii and then he said yer not me moh anymorrrr now fuuk off'. And so that went on for the next 2 and a half hours back to dublin from the stop off in kilkenny. What was even worse was the fact that just after crossing the border from kildare into dublin she said 'jaysis i bet i'm annoying everybody on dis bleedin bus buh i dun cayar'. I felt like saying 'jaysis love ye feckin are now will ye shurrup and be quieeehh or i'll dek yeh!!!'. So... basically any saying that any skanger has ever uttered.... ever. EVER!!!
