What did he just call you?
I was getting on a busy Luas one day, just having gotten off the train. There were 2 young girls, maybe 11 or 12, holding on to one of the poles near a door. Just as the Luas stopped two guys were pushing past the 2 young girls and one of them said to the other "Jaysus, that tram is wedged". One of the girls looked to the other with a shocked face and gasped, "What did he just call you?".

We're only the little people
On the news yesterday, a Fine Gael TD Dr. Rielly was speaking of Enda Kenny - (something along the lines of) "he's popular with the public when it matters- at election time!". Yeah, because the rest of the time doesnt matter does it?

Island Hopping!
On a flight from Dublin to Faro last week we were seated beside a large hen party. The two girls beside me were chatting about their upcoming holiday and one asks:
"Is Portugal a big Island?"
Her friend looked at her, disgusted and shouts
"Don't be so bleedin' stupid! It's not an Island, It's part of Spain!!"

Contraception Dublin Style
Was on a bus into town. Mother with two screaming kids and I assume their grandfather. Getting off the bus the old man says in a strong dublin accent "I'm not having any more grandchildren, I'm going on the pill". Cue lots of laughter including the driver.

I was in an irish pub in Prague once chatting to the Dub barman about living in Europe as I've been living in Holland for 20 years myself.
He was back in the fair city on holidays telling his grandda he's now living and working in the Czech republic.
His grandda says "Czech republic yeah?, jay's that's great.Czech republic wha!"...He comes in a little closer and asks in a hushed tone, "Tell me son,are they black over there?"

Couldn't walk away from this!
Walking down Grafton Street with a bunch of friends, we see a guy playing the guitar. We listen for a minute and as he finishes the song we start to walk away, as he wasn't very good. He cries out,
"Ah heyoor! Ninjas killed me family, I need money fer kung fu lessons!"
Had to give him money after that!

Take that!
At a Take-That concert in Croke Park, the queue for the ladies' toilet was enormous. Two women walked into the gents toilet instead. They were confronted by a surprised man who asked them " What are you two doing in here?" One of the ladies instantly retorted "What the f**K are YOU doing at a Take-That concert?!!"
