    I dont know if people still do this but when I was in school in Munster 'fair' meant 'a lot'.

    e.g. "She's a fair beor"............GRRRRRAAAAWWWWWWW!!!!!

    It's still goin with people from Tipp and Waterford

    "Well boy it's fair warm outside aint' it?"

    It's not the words that annoy me - it's the accent

    My everyday saying which definately pisses everyone off is:

    "I don't care what they say about you, you're alright"

    Anyway it's run its course but if anybody wishes to purchase the patent pm me :)

    When people use the word 'sure' like this, "Ah shure isn't it a grand day!", "Ah shure go on, I will have a cup of tea."

    My very favourite, "Ah shure it'll be grand!" :)

    When pronounced correctly it's "Asher" :)

    Ooh, there's one in Cork "sure how bad!" which seems to mean "sure that's the way it's supposed to be/don't worry about that" so somebody says "Jaysis like I was gattin on there at me 21st, completely pissed, can't remember a thing like" and the reply is "sure how bad, it was a 21st"

    Someone I know was doing her college dissertation on suicide in the traveller community, she was on the phone to her dad and started giving out about all the work she'd to do, and he goes (all in a strooong Cork accent)

    "what's it on anyway?"
    "suicide in the traveller community"
    "what's that?"
    "well da, we're trying to find out why their suicide figures are so high, loads of the young men are killing themselves and it's getting worse"
    "sure how bad" :eek:

    We are all guilty of at least one of the above; but I cannot justify them.

    The most susceptible to memes are younger females. They can hardly utter a sentence without one.

    People who use a sarcastic ''Err a sure''. Like ''Err a sure it's not all bad''.

    Same with a post above, the ''Sure how bad'' is annoying too.

    So she goes "Really?"
    Then he goes "Swear to god"
    So she goes "You're can't be serious"

    So I goes "Stop saying 'he/she goes' or I'll stab you in the face" :mad: :D

    It's annoying when an attractive woman says that because it leaves you thinking "yeah and I wish I was on your tits and all".

    Double-standard. It's not fair goddamit! :mad: How would the ladies like it if blokes went round complaining about everything and finishing the thought with "it really gets on my wallet, ya know!"

    "Bwaha...aawh Happy Days!" - Cant stand that saying.

    "CHHHUUUUTTT YER MOUT(H)!" - by the local scumbags.

    "aw haw haw, Fíonn! Put your log into me!" - general toff-ery.

    "Cummere til I tell ye..." - random aul fellas in pubs.

    "oh?.....I was scarleh!" - female teeny bopper.

    I could go on.
