Chinese Take Away
Roy Keane is going through on goal late on in the game and ends up clattering some chinese defender who has to be stretchered off.
Player being stretchered off field and some 6/7 year old kid turns to his Da and goes, "jesus Da thats what you call a chinese take away!"......needless to say everyone around him burst out laughing

You're NOT Tony Hawk
One day when i was on the 69 bus there were two skater punks behind me. As we were driving down the quays we passed that wierd white bridge thats before the Haypenny and Millenium.
One of the Kids says to the other "ya know what'd be awesome, if ya went out and walked on the white pipe on the edge there." The other Replied "yeah that'd be Extreme, Do ya Double Dare me,I'll Grind that i will."
I watched the news for the next three nights to see if there were any storied about kids drowning in the Liffy Because they were imitating a VID-JOE GAYAM

Just Desserts
I was havin lunch with my collegues a few days ago. The canteen had cheesecake on for dessert. One of the girls at my table was looking longingly at the desserts, another one of the girl said "why don't you get a cheesecake?" to which the first girl replied "because I don't like cheese"! "Lucky it's not rockcakes!" came a response from the table beside us.

That's very decent of you
While sitting behind two teenage girls on the bus about two years ago I overheard them talk about a third girl they didn't like.
To illustrate her point, one of the girls said that the girl they were discussing had taken her lighter when visiting the previous night. Exasperated, she said, "It's feckin' shockin'! I mean, I'd steal from shops but I wouldn't steal from people."

Those feet weren't made for walking
Talking to a guy outside the Gravediggers in Glasnevin a few weeks ago who was telling me that "de brudder" wasn't too well. I asked him what the problem was and he replied.
"Jaysus, his feet are in bits, he can't walk, he's absolutely Shank's mared."

de Valera's finest
Food shopping in town yesterday, I left my basket at the till to grab one more thing. I'm back 20 secs later to find an old woman had skipped me...
Me: "Haha, sorry, you skipped the queue there."
Old wan: "No. There was nobody there."
Me: "My basket was there, I was gone for a few seconds."
Old wan: "That means nothing. The basket could be anything."
Me: "Huh?"
Old wan: "Are you American?"
Me: "No?!"
Old wan: "Yes you are. You're American."
Me: "I'm Irish!"
Old wan: "Yes well, you've been infected."
Me: "IT'S NOT A DISEASE!!"
Old wan: "Yeah well...."
Me: (consternation)

A roll with two sausages please.
While ordering a sandwich at lunchtime I ask the girl behind the counter "Can I have a roll with two sausages please?". The girl makes up the order, hands it to me and off I trot to eat me lunch. When I opened me role, I saw that she had given me a roll with two sausages and CHEESE!
Shows how polite we are in the city.

A couple of years ago outside Fireworks nightclub I overheard some Ginger bloke who had just got kicked out for being too pissed. He was on the phone to his mates inside. It wasnt good enough for the bouncer in fireworks that this bloke had been kicked out, he had to have a go at him while he was on the phone as well. "Ringin' yer mammy to see whats for dinner are ye?".......To which the pasted punter replies "No, im ringin you're mammy to see whats for breakfast!"

One of those cringe moments
On the bus two young lads get on. The older boy, too cool to be seen with his younger brother, sat at the back of the bus with his mates. about 10 minutes later the younger lad comes up and says at the top of his voice:
"Mammy just rang, she wants us to get off in the village"
His face was priceless.

Drinking while Travelling
Not in dublin (but involved a dub). 1990 world cup, staying in Yugoslavia and taking day trips to the Ireland games. Palermo airport was a mess, people pissed drunk everywhere. We get on the aircraft and fly to Split in Yugoslavia. As we were walking across the ramp to the terminal. I here this shout. "SPLIT!?, SPLIT!?, THIS IS'NT F**KING DUBLIN!!!".
(A drunken member of Jacks army managed to get on the wrong aircraft.)

A frustrated Peg Sayers Wannabe Dub!!!!
Sitting on the 123 coming home from town one saturday three or four Italian Students get on and sit down the back. For about 15 - 20 mins they are talking really load in their native tongue... an auld wan sitting two or three seats up and directly across from me keeps looking around and them and muttering to herself....
Getting completely frustrated at this (as everyone else) the auld wan turns around and in the loudest Dub accent screams "Ciúnas!!"
