    I'm from the west and between 2004-2009 people used to say you "rehab" a lot. Never understood it, rehab?

    People who worked in the Rehabilitation Institute (people with some sort of disability).

    I haven't heard 'ya split decision' in years.

    Years ago when EVERYBODY seemed to be from a good wholesome family unit. Insulting somebody for being from a single parent family or for being an actual b*stard was common..

    There was a kid in my school universally called John Daddy Gone.

    Same at ours , one poor lad was called "run away ray" after his long gone father

    "Ask me brown" or "I will in me brown" / general use of the word "brown" to mean arse.

    I remember "mentaller" being used a lot. Same as "spa" I suppose.

    "Benny". Anyone remember "Are you a Benny tied to a pole?" No idea what it meant.

    It meant if you weren't tied to a pole you were a homosexual on the loose, I hope that clears things up for you :pac:

    A friend of mine from Kildare uses the word "Stook", as in "you're a stook" (rhymes with "Luke"), which I'm quite positive is an entirely made up word of her own devising.

    still use that one meself

    Probably been mentioned, but 'dork' and 'bet down' have sadly been consigned to history.

    Unless, obviously if you live outside dublin in which case you can look forward to those insults, along with the advent of skinny jeans on men becoming fashionable, over the next year or so

    I remember people calling each other "mongoloids" when I was younger. Pretty offensive term when I think back on it now.

    Didn't hear "mongo" so much. Where I lived, there were no abbreviations on that particular insult, for some reason.
