Thread Name: BS: Irish expressions for St Patrick's Day?
Subject: RE: BS: Irish expressions for St Patrick's Day?
Well O'Brian...**BG**

You did say that you knew you were setting yourself up with this Thread ..!!

So now you know some of the expressions that will totally P** a lot of drunk people off at a gig on St Patricks day IF they speak the Irish!
Sometimes if your doing the gig and all around you is madness just tell yourself, if you can't beat them join them:)

If that is the case may I suggest you say to the Bartender, as you step over the unconscious drunk Body in front of the bar,
Tabhair dom an rud céanna mar atá ag an fhear ar an urlár!
(pronounced, Toe-er do un rudd kear-nah marr ah-ta ig un arr air un urr-lar )
Which means,
Give me the same as the man on the floor!
Then if you have enough of whatever he had and you decide to use one or more of the less polite suggestions you will be numb enought to feel no pain!
I would steer well clear from the 'Kiss my Arse" in Irish or English myself..but...hey there is many a man that has chnaged from a Saint to Warrior once he has drink taken..:)
