Nothing odd about Dublin

I was Dublin for the first time ever last month and couldn't have come across a more helpful taxi driver who took me straight from Dublin Airport to my mate's place in Cabra. While looking for the correct house number the driver says, "So, look, the even numbers are on that side of the road, and the uneven numbers are over on this side."

Mister cranky on the 39

Getting on a packed bus last week during one of the coldest days this winter. On the upper deck, a middle aged woman gets on and opens one of the windows. The man sitting behind her immediately picks up his mobile and dials:

Man: 'Hi how are you? Yeah? I'm sitting on the bus and if another person opens an effing window I'm gonna kill them right out! Okay, see you, bye.'

Cue strange looks from all passengers.

Damage

I sat between two students on the bus into town yesterday afternoon. They were both about 18 or 19, well dressed country girls coming from DCU I reckon.

They were carefully looking out the window at some male students who had just got off the bus and were walking down Dorset Street. One young man in particular was drawing their attention.

"I'd fockin do damage to him" said one young lady, decisively.

Healthy Sadness

On the 79a going home on a Wedneday evening, a couple down the back were chatting away. The man exclaims that he read in the Sun that it is healthy for you to be sad, on which the woman stated "Well then, I must be f**king really fit!!".

Dis is me stop

So this yung fella is on the 39 bus into town I wouldn't say he was older than 21 but I only caught parts of what he was saying.

The first thing I heard him say was "yer man makes his own bullets and ye get 400 rounds for $40" in his thick Dublin accent then I heard "f***** rapah" (I presume he meant rapid) then I heard him say was "I got a box and ye keep all yer weed in it was only $5 man f***** savage ye can keep a 50 bag innit"

Last thing was "dis is me stop" guess where he gets off….the four courts, surprise surprise!!!
