Actually, we know it's been done before. Personally, I think this thread is awesome!

Going forward, I think we should try to improve the synergy between what threads people want, and what actually gets posted. And perhaps introduce measures to remove duplicate posts.

Oops, my bad. I misused the word synergy there. I swear, I'm stupider than a single-cell organism some times. But hey, happy days!

GTG, cya lat3r. I have to put some clean slacks on.

I use this word pretty often, and I dont see any problem with it, but are some people actually annoyed by the word "cheers" when used instead of "thanks".
Dont get that one myself.

There are also suburbs outside South Dublin.

I know that, but are they ever described as 'leafy'? It's all the connotations that go with the word that annoy me, using 'leafy' when they actually mean 'posh'

'Banter' and 'Happy out'

When a couple say "we are trying to get pregnant" or "we are pregnant" really annoys me. No, no you are not. If you are a man, she is pregnant. If you are a woman, you are pregnant. Unless you are both hermaphrodites you sound like a fukking idiot.

calling people" muppets". sounds so retarded imo. one of the worst so called insults anyone could have come up with

A few pronouns and you'd have yourself a nasty little sentence there.

messymess

"I could care less" meant when the person obviously means "I couldn't care less".

****in eejits, I could care less about them

Getting there

I hate when people say "ja know whad i mean?", ususally in a strong limerick accent at the end of every sentence. drives me mad. yes yes i do, if i didnt i would stop you and ask.

Duckjob

Irish people saying "Cheers" for "Thanks". This is Ireland, not England.

bearhugs

I thought that was really funny when I first heard it;

"Fancy anything from the chipper?"
"A curried chip"
"What, just the one?"

Junco Partner

lol rofl lmao


what ever happened to haha?:mad:

Canard

Retarted.

Contrary to the above post, I hate 'haha'. More specifically 'AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAA.'

You'd say a drink was nice, not 'SLURRRRRRRRRRP THAT DRINK WAS SO NICE.' LOL was made for online use, haha is a noise, not even a word really.

EverybodyLies

Stuff like LMAO or ROFL in everyday conversation. Obviously you're not. I'm right here.

shebango

'Pussy'

and

'At the minute'

Not quite a specific phrase, but the above reminded me of something that drives me around the twist:

Couples recording mailbox answering messages on each others phones. House phones are ok, but mobiles FFS. e.g. you ring Mary's mobile and get Johns voice going "Hi, this is John and Mary here". Eh, NO. This is Mary's mobile phone, You're an insecure freak, and if she's happy having that msg on her mobile phone, so is she.

Freefaller

The American use of "sick" as something good.
Oh my God that car is "sick" you're house is "sick"
"The Smart Economy"

Ave Nocturna

The whole "And he turned around and said... Then SHE turned around and said" crap really gets on my nerves.

Also, "Your ma" is beyond old at this stage...

Oh and the use of "me" as opposed to "my"

"Your ma turned around and told me me ma was roidin Anto and I turned around and says WHA"

:mad:

bohsboy

This new "much" phrase I notice in posts here. As in "annoying much?". :rolleyes:
