Heard a good one during the week,

You're as good as ten men; 9 dead and one dying!

I worked with a bit of a blow ass years ago. Used to go away for weekend hunting and shooting with dogs. Had to listen to stories about how much ground he travelled in a day.
'You're a mighty man Pat'
'I am. I'm twice as fit as a man half my age'.
'So what you're saying so is you're 4 times fitter than any man your own age so.'
Needless to say he shut up after that.

We had a gob****e walking up our road one day. Lazy aul lad that knew everything. Anyways we had fenced around 10 acres that day (dived it all up into paddocks for the first time ever too!) but he was asking us all about it, how long it took etc, we just said a while of a day, and he went on to tell us how he fenced 210acres one day by himself, he was left by the road, hah! The lad had hardly a days work done in his life!

Are you making money from milk or milk from money

Nekarsulm

when something is very far from being right- "not within an ass's roar of it"

Or "there is a smell of you, would smother young whins"

foxy farmer

Heard a new one last night. Referring to someone who loves to chat and never stops- "that one would talk a rat to death."

jack of all

Another new one to me, when asked if you leave a tip for a service that's already dear enough- "I will not, why would you rub grease on a pig's fat arse?".

On very wet and wild day an auld fella looked out the window and said "you wouldn't put the wife out in that"

Oldtree

My grandmother (on my mother's side from limerick) was very fond of pointing out to me the "stupid is as stupid does!" Never really understood what she was going on about

She was the one that took me to the abattoir in Limerick at aged 6 to see the pigs being slaughtered. Luckily the pigs were already done and hanging in racks when we arrived phew!! The mother went nuts.

A large girl, I'd say she'd walk away from a fair heap of dung.

Kovu

Just when you mentioned a large girl Sam- The lad my father works with is a quiet sort of fella. He recently wanted to reinforce a few chairs in the local community centre as the 88's were damaging them.

Took me while to figure out that he meant two fat ladies aka 88!!

Sam Kade

Years ago there was a man working at the local creamery, he was always joking. A farmers wife brought two churns of milk one morning and she was hefty around the chest area as they were about to empty the churns of milk the joker said to her "begor May they are two fine churns of milk you have there"

"That's her" said the Connachtmsn to the bull.
"Now" says she and she threw her wooden leg high up into the air.

TheFarrier

Once heard an aul lad to exclaim "jaysus she'd pike bales for ya" in reference to a somewhat portly young lady

Nekarsulm

My neighbour married later in life, and his wife was a big strong woman. An older man in the parish saw her helping him cover the silage pit with tyres the first year they were married.
"jaysus lad, she was throwing them up like sods of turf"!
