    All set.
    Are you all set? meaning "Are you done with that?", "Are you finished?", "Are you sorted?" The yanks use it all the time especially in restaurants when wondering if you have tipped them at the end of your meal. They always use it in work too, I probably hear the phrase over 50 times per day.

    Man cave is another one.

    "In retrospect I'm going forward, year on year, with the benefit of 20/20 hindsight, frankly I don't know whether I'm coming or going, but who cares with all those excellent unvouched expenses, ahead of me and eh, behind me, so to speak Marian, I mean Miriam."

    At the end of the day, basically, you're bang to rights with your thinly veiled but deeply satisfying historical analogy. Just sayin'

    Hold on, that's a legitimate description of something? What's your beef with it?

    'Randomer'

    As in "some randomer...."

    Just fúck off with this stupid crap. Fair enough if you're a bleach blonde surfer dude from California, that is permanently 'skunked' up living the surfing lifestyle. Otherwise cop yourself on twat.

    Lookit what I'm about to say carries great significance and wisdom and you should listen to it carefully as it will enrich your life.

    Often used by RTE hurling analysts.

    A lookit must be accompanied by the correct hand signal ( frozen karate chop) to be considered a valid lookit

    "personally, myself., and I can only speak for myself".

    Why can't people just say 'personally', we all know what it means.:mad:
