Everyone has their breaking point
One day walking down our main thoroughfare past the bus-stops outside the BOI, the crowds were heavy. Some girl with a thick Dublin accent, of about 18 or 19, was waiting for her bus. People must have been brushing off her and bumping into her on their way past, for all of a sudden, from out of the general din of the crowd she shouted out to the anonymous pedestrians, "the next person who bumps into me's gonna get a f**kin diiig!" Only in Dublin.

Sponge dilemma.
A bizarre conversation with a friend who had just bought his first car and was still a bit green about the whole thing:
Him: "Where I can get a 'car sponge'?"
Me: "Eh, don't you mean a sponge? There's no such thing as a car sponge... it's just a sponge."
Him: "Oh... (silence on the other end of the phone for a second) Well it's just that I don't want to get one with loads of bristles on it."
Me: ?!?

This blonde goes to the chemist................
My boyfriend had a cold so I was sent out to get him some tablets. So, into the chemist and up to the counter I go asking: "do you have anything for a bad head cold?"
The chemist lady said "yes, we have Uniflu here".
I reply: "Yes, I'll take them."
Chemist lady looking at the boxes: "Twelve or twenty-four
I reply: "No, he's 27"

Moving Floor
I was in Work waiting for the lift when a Girl I worked with came along. When the lift door opened we saw they had put a new carpet on the floor of the lift.
The girl said "oh look new carpet, I wonder did they put it on all the floors?"

A Dublin emergency
I work in a pharmacy and we get many strange incidents but this one tops them all. A 15 year old lad comes running in one morning looking rushed and out of breath. So Im thinkin, emergency, first aid needed, or he needs an inhaler. Runs up to counter, "Do ya sell stationary?" I check to see if I heard him correctly. "Em sorry this a pharmacy". To which he replies "Is there nowhere in this f***kin city that sells a rooooler at noyen a clak in da mornin?!!" I couldnt hold my laughter.

Dublin Wit????????
On my way to Dublin v Laois match, a vendor was selling flags, hats, horns, and all sorts of supporters items. A Laois lad in front of me asked the vendor how much were the horns? He replied €5, to which the Laois lad said that they were very expensive. On hearing that the vendor in a rich thick Dublin accent shouted back:
"youse better buy one now, for it is the only HORN youse will get to day!!!!!!"

Paki Surprise
I brought an English friend to the recent Dublin vs Meath match. He's from London but is of Indian origin. As we were leaving the match a bunch of Hill16ers were coming towards us singing, "I'd rather be a Paki than a royal, I'd rather be a Paki than a royal" by coincidence. I realised with horror what would happen but it was too late. As they passed my 'Indian' friend they saw him and started to rub his hair and throw their arms around him, singing louder.....As they past us by all you could hear was one wag going, "That was f**king great.. we were singing about pakis and then one arrived."

That told him...
All is quiet on a half-empty train sitting in Cork Station on Saturday evening waiting to set off. A three-year-old girl and her mother are sitting in the next seat down from me. Suddenly the driver comes on the (very loud) PA system to announce "We will shortly be leaving for Dublin Heuston, stopping at blah blah.." and the startled girl looks up at the speaker and screams - "HEYYY, SHUT THE FU*% UP YOU"
