There's always one..

I was at the cinema in Dundrum, to see the film 'Mamma mia!'. There was a scene with a wedding, and the priest was played by Niall Buggy, who played 'Henry Sellers' in Father Ted. In 'Father Ted' Niall often said 'Because I'm Henry Sellers!!' One of the lines in the scene was 'why'? Somebody behind me shouted at the top of their lungs.. 'BECAUSE I'M HENRY SELLERS!'. It took a while for some of the people in the cinema to catch on, and when they did, they burst out laughing.Most of the younger Audience looked very clueless.

Holy Haircuts

In the local barbershop a guy in his 60s, called Mickey, was getting a trim. The barber, who obviously knew him well,was making smalltalk as usual.

"Well Mick, how are things, how did the holliers go. Were you telling me on your last visit that you were going to Italy or somewhere like that?"
"Yeah" says Mickey, "Rome, great so it was."
"Were you near the Vatican" asks the barber. "Did you see the Pope?"
"I did" says Mickey getting fed up of all the questions. "I was talking to him and all."
"And what did he say to you Mick" Says the barber.
Mickey replies "he asked me 'who did that to your f**king head Michael?'" to laughter from us all in the barbershop queue.

They are running the GAME !

A number of years ago the FAI were holding one of their "night of the long knives" meetings in a hotel in central Dublin. There were numerous people being accused of all sorts and tempers were wearing thin. At the end of the meeting and after a few people had walked the plank one of the board members (who was still in place) who was very aggitated at the nights events was heard saying...........

"There have been some very serious allegations made here tonight and I know the alligators"

CLASSIC

Maybe he worked in the Everglades during the summer.............

Your guess is as good as mine...

Was at DCC amphitheatre for the 'Kings of Concrete' show and overheard this very odd bit of conversation between two very respectable looking young fellas sitting in front of me after a young lady had left their company.

Guy 1: "Here John, was that your mad one who you sent the picture of Benicio del Toro's c*ck to?"
John: "No no, that was my sister, the one who borrowed my Wonder Woman costume!"

Lisps are funny...

To set the scene a person with a sizable lisp goes to catch a taxi in central Dublin....

Passenger (Said with a lisp): Can you take me to Earlshfort Terrasche Pleashe?

Taxi Driver: Are you taking the pissh out of me mate? Have you been in my Taxshi before....(also said with a lisp)

In the whole confusion the taxi driver gets out of the car ready to belt the guy, with neither of them knowing if the other was trying to take the piss out of them. The most awkward laugh I've ever had.
