The hungry D4 bird
Walking down Grafton St. just before Christmas - Passing by HMV as two D4 birds (bleached blonde) passed me.
I only caught one line of the conversation when one said to the other:
''I'm so hungry my fanny's chewing my leg''
I was stopped dead in my tracks - proper D4 accent and all.
Disgusting stuff

How to walk in the Snow
I work as a Garda in Dublin Inner City, while I was on the beat in very extreme icy conditions I walked past two elderly men on a very slippy path. I heard one of them advise the other
"Careful here Johnny, ya have to walk as if ya just shit your cacks"
I presumed he meant small but quick steps, good advice though :)

Powers of Persuaision
Two lads walking down Little Mary Street, one lugging a stuffed hold-all. The other lad is slagging him, so he drops the hold-all and starts to walk off. The slagging lad shouts after him 'No wait you USED to be a wanker, but NOW yer a legend!! To which the lad turns around all smiles to pick up the hold-all again. Best buddies no doubt.

Crying Game Player...
Walking through Maynooth one night during Freshers' week. I saw this girl coming towards me crying into this guy's shoulder. Inconsolable, so she was.
Guy says: 'Ah sure don't mind him, hes only an 'effin player! If he had every girl who he's slept with's flower, sure he'd have a garden!'
Crying doesn't even begin to describe the level of laughter I went to!!

At least he was honest
Was drinking in Temple Bar and went outside for smoke. I spotted two guards across the street collaring two teens.
Guard: "in accordance with the law, I'm now going to search you for drugs. Before I start, do you have anything on you, you shouldnt have?"
One teens replied: "Yeah, me brother's shoes"

Never work with kids
At the International Street Festival, guy doing his act pulls this kid, about 10 years old to help with his act. He gets to the part where he's going to juggle fire and asks the kid, clearly taking the mick given the kids age, if he has a lighter...
To which the kid replies, 'naw bud, left it at home.'

A lovely looking woman...dressed in a fake juicy couture pink tracksuit stands up an yells "ah yi weapon ya"! The driver of the car turns and kindly raises his middle finger and drives on.
