    Someone once described a rather shapely female aquantaince he was smitten with to me with the words, "She has an arse on her like a pure bred Limousin"

    An old relative of mine, when the barman at closing time would go - " Are ye right there now folks"........"Ah, if we were right, we wouldn't be here".
    He had a big problem with the drink. :D

    A reply to almost any harmless statement (especially anything uttered in a workshop/farming environment ie 'up a bit'.... 'stick it in' ... 'give it a belt'..... 'drive it home' )

    To bring a bit of smut into it just reply.....

    'That's what she said last night!'

    To describe a woman who is a heavy smoker;

    'That woman smokes so much that if she ever stops havin her periods soot will come out instead.':eek:

    The old bull spends half the time showing off and more time on the job.

    Another one from the locality

    A notorious little weasel of a fella was working with a big quiet man.
    The little cross fella spent the day needling the big fella and barking orders at him and generally giving him hell.
    The big fella turned around to him and said "Wasn't God a great man all the same"

    "What the **** is that supposed to mean?" says the little fella.

    "Wasn't he a great man to make the all the cross men small or I'd be in right trouble "

    Lad ‘round our way drank so much, ‘it was throwing beer into a bucket’. He was about as useful ‘as tits on a bull’. The next day he’d be ‘shaking like a sh*tting dog’ and ‘sweating like a paedophile in a bear suit’. His wifes so ugly ‘you wouldn’t ride her into battle’


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 230 ✭✭Ding Dong

    Big girl in heels: She wouldnt be long ploughin a field for you/ she aint built for the soft ground.
    Good lookin girl: 1 fella takes a look and says 'i would anyway' friend says 'you would have to get my arse out of the way first'.
    Drive faster: Drive her like you stole her/ drive her like your late for mass.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,241 ✭✭✭✭Kovu


    To describe someone cross eyed - " One eye was going for the shopping, the other was coming back with the change"

    To describe a larger than average person- He/she has as many chins as a Chinese phone book.

    She looked like her face was on fire and someone put it out with a shovel!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,274 ✭✭✭Bodacious


    To describe a lazy fella... "that son of mine is the laziest b**tard that ever Sh*t behind two shoes!"

    "...better than any coleslaw"...... An old neighbour complimenting a nice cup of tea. I think Billy Connolly would like that one.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,034 ✭✭✭Bizzum


    In honour of virility " he has a flail on him that could poke rats out of a corn stack"

    Sick:

    Drive her like your late for mass
    A bird in the hand is worth 2 in a bush
    She had a face on her like a bulldog lickin piss off a nettle


  • Registered Users Posts: 294 ✭✭countryjimbo


    Surprised no one mentioned this one yet!
    "Might as well be hung for a sheep as a lamb"


    An old bull and a young bull were standing on a hill looking down on a valley full of cows.
    “Hey”, says the young bull. “Let’s run down and r*de one of those cows…”
    “No”, says the old bull. “Let’s walk down and r*de them all.”

    Describing a "loose" woman
    "like throwing sausages up O'Connell St!"

    As rough as a bear's ar5e / bag of spanners.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,395 ✭✭✭✭mikemac1


    I see says the blindman after someone, maybe the vet has or the accountant has given a realy detailed and technical explanation and you haven't managed to understand it fully

    Pure scandalous. The price in the mart/price in the creamery or tax demand is pure scandelous. Adopt a high pitched tone to emphasis the outrage

    Maybe not PC but a difficult ram or a difficult bull that was as soon as go for you as move is a dirty Protestant. How that started I don't know but Protestant seems to mean stubborn

    On that note Cloughjordan in Co Tipp is known as little Belfast due the local population. Nothing bad meant by it but it's noticeable who lives there

    Sharp as a sausage.
    Thick as a plank.
    Deaf as a post.
    Slow as a wet week.
    Blind as bat.
    Bald as a coot.
    Hoarse as a cuckoo.
    Strong as a bull.
    Sound as a trout.
    Weak (pronounced wake!) as water.
    Pissed as a newt.
    Hot as the hob of hell.
    Cool as ice.
    Fat as a fool.
    Lucky as a cut cat.
    Dry as snuff.
