    There's an Irish racehorse trainer who's well known as Boots Madden. Even in the media he's known as Boots. No idea why.

    But he has two sons, both jockeys. Socks and Slippers.

    Had a drunken discussion a few years ago with a few friends and the topic of local gossip came up. One of the lads (named Peter) said the worst kind of gossip would be if someone branded you a pedo, to which someone replied Pedo Peter, and that stuck for a while.

    Local fella called Bull, no idea where it came from.

    Anyway he had 2 sons and they were instantly given the names Bullock and Calfeen when they were going to school.

    Mate of mine was called chickenwings.

    He performed oral sex on a female who was menstruating, and afterwards looked like he'd been consuming BBQ Wings.

    This is f@cking deplorable...

    It's also a load of balls. I can't imagine anyone would do that and then appear with a blood covered face to show all his friends so they could come up with the nickname.

    Azzy.

    Old bloke I knew. When he was young, he wanted to be a boxer. He trained and fought, stuck to a good diet and didn't smoke or drink til he was in his late 20's.

    Got the nickname from people asking his da, "Azzy (has he) had a drink yet?"

    I know of a lad who was Chip Murphy, he wasn't quite the full spud..... Another was Gorta cause he was so thin he looked like the lads in the ad for Gorta in the early 80's and the best for me is a lad named Ford in college brought a stunner to his college ball and she wouldn't let him kiss her until he coughed up extra cash... clearly a fan of escorts

    I'm not saying that it doesn't mean "have sex with a menstruating woman", I 'm just saying that it also refers to cunnilingulating* a menstruating women, specifically for bikers.






    * a perfectly cromulent word.
