Standing Room Only
Was boarding a flight back to England after being over visiting family when this girl gets on and asks the stewardess "eh, have yiz any seats left?" to which the stewardess looks at her as if to say "did u really ask that?" before replying yes. the wan turns round and says "great i won't have to stand then"
Something tells me she'd never been on a plane before!

There will be Blood
I watched "There will be Blood" with my boyfriend the other night. For those who haven't seen it, Daniel Days character falls down an oil well at the start and hurts his left leg, he drags himself back to surface and drags him body across the ground, my fella says "oh look its just like Christy Brown all over again but now he has use of everything except his left leg"!

Androgynous Rocker
While practicing for a gig, the next band had a very feminine, long haired rocker type waiting for his turn to play. One of the girls who was hanging around pipes up: "Do you ever get mistaken for a girl?"
His quick witted reply: "No, do you?"

Outta his Head
I was out in town one night when three heads walk by, one of them far more drunk than his two mates who were propping him up in the middle.
Suddenly he pipes up loudly
"Here lads come on and we'll go to the George for a dance wha"
His mates clearly embarrassed
"No Mick were heading home, come on"
(Two mates whisper over the top of his head to each other "F**k sake if he could hear himself")
Mick "F**k sake man whats the harm in havin a dance to a bit of Kylie? Good music that is"
Friend "Jaysus, his ma was right, wine and beer do make him feel queer"

Overheard incorrectly in Dublin
It was my first week working in a supermarket during the school holidays and I was busy packing shelves. An old lady asked me for the jacks, so I brought her to the ladies and said I'd wait outside. She looked puzzled and asked me why I brought her there. I said it's because you asked for the bathroom....
She said, I'm looking for AJAX
I still cringe everytime I think of this

de yodder
Was travelling from Limerick to Dublin on Bus Eireann and the bus had stopped for a break in Borris in Ossory. After a while the driver got on and explained in his heavy Dublin accent that we were going to wait for a bus following behind, then this bus would become an express to Dublin and if anyone needed to get off before Dublin they should get onto "de yodder" bus.
Two little old ladies sitting near the front
- "What did he say?"
-"He said a yellow bus is going to bring us to Portlaoise!"
