    Saw three nuns after mass today scrambling to get into an old 3-door Nissan... shouldn't have made me laugh but did.

    And getting pushed into a road by two dozen undercover policeman who then proceeded to leap onto the big bloke behind me was quite strange.



    I'm sure everyone's got mental stories... I'm bored; tell :D

    They were probably Christian Brothers incognito and on the run.

    I once scrambled a nun on the bonnet of a three door funnily enough!

    I thought they looked like men but presumed that was just because they were nuns....

    I remember when I was a little kid sitting out on the footpath. There was a big squashed snail a few meters down the path, dunno how I remember it being there. Anyway, a man was walking up the path and he stopped, took out a tissue, scooped up the snail, put it in his pocket and walked on.

    I'm pretty sure that's what happened :s

    I was on holiday a few years ago in Spain with my mates i heard a crashing sound so i went out to the balcony and looked down the road. A little van had overturned on its side and a group of Spaniards just pushed back onto its 4 wheels and it puttered off without a bother! No one on the street seemed too fussed about it like it happens everyday! :eek:

    That reminds me of a story from when I was really young, couldn't have been more than 4 months old.

    I was a grand sunny day and I ws in my pram being pushed when all of a sudden I needed to have a poop. Anyhow this guy starts staring at me as if I had two heads. I really needed to go, but the fecker kept staring.

    Can't poop when some dodgy fecker is staring you out of it.

    I was nearly in tears. :mad:

    A transvestite.

    Who was 6'4''

    Who wore tonnes of make-up

    Who dressed like a 1950s housewife

    Who was right behind me when I turned around.

    Were you bending down at the time?
    And if so, will you be more wary about where you bend down again?

    I once saw a man waiting for a train in Neesden in London wearing a blood stained dressing gown and drinking a bottle of champagne.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,359 ✭✭✭Overblood


    I was waiting for a bus one day in Clonmel. Went into the station to take a piss. When I walked into the jacks I was hit by a wall of stench. Smelt like poo. Probably was. Anyways so I take a piss in the urinal, I hear the toilet flushing, and this fat guy, about 40 years of age, walks out of the stall. I knew by the cut of him that he wasn't all there, he was kind of retarded. He was muttering to himself. As he was walking out the door I saw that there was scutter all over his pants. I said to myself "feck, some chance of getting on the bus with scutter all over you boy!". I was also feeling sorry for the poor fecker who was looking after him.

    Went back outside anyways to have an auld shmoke. There was an odd smell.

    Saw the scuttery man wandering around like a lost child. He didn't have a carer or nurse or anything, he was all on his own. Whoever let this guy loose on the streets should be shot I thought to myself. Myself and all the other people waiting for a bus were just watching this guy wandering around the front of the station, talking to himself, with scuttery shit all over his pants. I was half thinking of ringing the guards since this guy was in no way able to take care of himself, he could have escaped from the local looney ward or something.

    He made his way over to a phonebox outside the front door of the station and threw in a few coins, dialled a number, while holding the door open with his scuttery arse. The glass door of the phonebox went all brown. Since the door was open, we could all hear what he was screaming into the phone.

    "I did it again!! Oh jesus I did it again! I'm at the station! Oh jesus wha! I did it again! Sorry!"

    While he was on the phone, a woman who works in the station came out with a bucket full of brown water and poured it down the drain, she had the most horrid look on her face. She was obviously after cleaning out the jacks after him. I'm really glad I didn't have a peek into the stall on my way out. I can only imagine what it was like.

    Anyways, yer man exits the phone box and returns to wandering around like a lost child, covered in scutter. Everybody is still watching this guy. Mary & Maggie smoking a fag saying "bejaysus what's up with that lad?"

    A few minutes later a car pulls up in front of us, the driver is an old-ish lady, about 40-50, absolutely mortified look on her face. She didn't even get out of the car. Scutter man waves at her and waddles over to the car and opens the door. The driver is like "get in get in!". So scutter man turns his arse towards the car and gets in, arse first. He's pretty fat, and tall, so he puts his arse on the head rest, and then he slides his arse all the way down the seat as he sits in. Remember, this guys pants were destroyed in liquid brown scutter. The driver nearly pukes. Scutter mans arse finally reaches the seat and he closes the door. Lady drives off. Twenty people outside the bus station are left there wondering.... what the FCUK?!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,378 ✭✭✭Borneo Fnctn


    Scutter man baby. It's all about scutter man.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,277 ✭✭✭poisonated


    I have two
    1)When I was in Paris having dinner I saw a man pickpocket someone...It was one of those situations where you dont know what to do...I didnt want to be hunted down by some p.issed off french man thats for sure

    2)when I was in New york,there was this homeless man with a sign saying "will allow you to tell me off for 2 dollars" or something to that affect...anyway I didnt have the balls to do it but my brother started telling him off...your man looked like he was really getting angry but then just laughed and said cool thanks or something...that was very funny

    actualy I have another one
    I was in this German hotel when an old man came up to me and said you have to take off your swimming togs to get into the steam room...That was scary,needless to say I just walked off as quick as I could...I must have been around 14

    2 stories.

    Was in birmingham one year with some mates and walked into a mc donalds (Classy I know) when all of a sudden I hadn't even closed the door and some old man dropped dead walking behind me!

    The other was one night In the off license I worked in. Standing counting cash while the others are cleaning and dicking about. Knock on the door by the security guard. he barrels in the door knocked to the ground and two seconds later I was looking down the barrell of a baretta (by the looks of it)

    Anyway instead of ****ting myself I threw the money under the counter and just started laughing saying "who are you ....will you give it over taking the piss!!"

    I got pistol whipped and took about 2 hours to sink in that I cud have been shot dead in the head! weird!

    I heard a few young people out the back of where i work one day. I thought they were out smoking or just loitering about as young people do so i went outside and sneaked up to the side gate out the back. It's a big steel gate. I looked through the hole and i seen a girl down on her knees sucking some guy off! They were probably only about 17 or 18. It was about 3 o clock in the day. I couldn't believe it! Got the rest of the staff out to have a look too! Funniest thing i've seen in ages

    In Galway one night, lots of people around and a mildly rowdy atmosphere. Traffic moving very slowly through the large number of people. Three drunk lads decide to pick on one tiny car for some reason and start pounding on the bonnet and laughing. Big noises from them.

    Ten seconds later the doors of the car open and four Garda jump out. The lads were immediately turned around, pinned to the car, handcuffed and taken away. Brilliant, it was.

    On a weekend away with friends a long time ago, sitting on the Stanstead Express into London. Trains fairly empty so we're sat right up front having a few drinks when it slows to a crawl. The driver announces that there is a delay up ahead and it might take some time to clear. We continue drinking. After a while the drivers door opens and he sticks the head in to see whos making the racket. We get chatting and he says his folks are Irish and that the delay was because someones jumped in front of the oncoming train up ahead.

    Sure enough we look into the cab and can see flashlights in the distance between us and the station where the cops are collecting bits of the lad off the track. Apparently he cycled up the platform as the train came through and veered into its path.

    Anyway, driver finally gets the all clear and says we can stay in the cab as long as we don't touch anything. Tempting and all as it was we were too busy looking around us as we crawled through the station. Eerie stuff. Couldn't see much to be honest, but there sitting on the edge of the platform was a fully laced up doc martin.
