    Anyways I am a miserable wanksalot, so maybe I should expand my vocabulary.

    maybe its mentioned already but the term 'simples' at the end of an explanation is still used. drives me nuts.



    also sticking on 'you're welcome' at the end. like when you ask a question and someone comes back with a glaringly obvious bit of advice that clearly you had not considered. and usually its crap advice. for example...



    me: does anyone know where i can get a few pairs of jeans fixed in town...got some holes in them


    internet person: go to Dunnes and buy a sewing kit for a 2 euros. do it yourself. you're welcome.

    Some lad used to post the strangest of situations and wondered why certain people said or acted in particular ways. The gas thing was that it was obvious he was the problem and not everyone else.

    Yeh, it's generally not a helpful answer. Its clearly some kind of snark, hence the sneering "You're welcome".

    I also hate

    "I'll wait"

    It is used by someone who thinks he has an unanswerable question. Generally the question is wrong as in

    "So you think the Moon isn't made of cheese then? Do you have sources for that..

    I'll wait"


    The implication is that he will be waiting a long time. I tend to answer by saying "Of course you re going to wait. Why would somebody get back to you immediately"

    Anybody using that phrase is generally a twat.

    Thats reasonable if someone continues to watch something they hate, to contribute to a thread about that program.

    That said the radio forums would close down if people didn't post about what they hate. And the LLS thread too.

    so many, most already mentioned, and I'm probably forgetting loads

    - quotes a post with one word reply "This"
    - "there I said it". Usually after posting something in now way controversial
    - Post a link with "I'm just gonna leave this here"
    - "wow....just.....wow"
    - post a reply with a sarcastic "you're welcome", often with "you're" misspelled
    - That's how we ended up with Trump
    - random one but really, really annoys me (probably says more about me tbh!). People posting Amazon bargains where the price is lower in Ireland as UK VAT is removed with Irish VAT only added if the amount is > €22. "Oh look, this is reduced. £12 on the website but £10 for us".

    RCC = Catholic church - usually said by some embittered auld dhrip whose arse is still sore after all those years


    AGS - De Guards, said by some smarmy git trying to sound official


    DRLs - Strip of LED lights on posh cars. Oft said by the kind of eejit who gets involved in a heated debate about fog lights and fast lanes


    ICE - Ordinary car engine. Said by some dope who doesn't realise the battery in a car is really just for turning the starter




    "Per corner" - when talking about buying tyres they're known as "corners" instead of "tyres" :confused:


    WRC - Train line going through tuam and some other places - Said by a member of the Irish Bus & Greenway appreciation society
