Check out www.overheardindublin.com for some amazing quotes from the people of Dublin, classic stuff.

Here is just some of my favourites...

I was standing at a bus stop on O'Connell street. There were two girls beside me talking in Irish to each other. Next thing you know, two local dubliners walk by and hear the two girls talking. One of the dubliners looks at the two girls and says -

"Hey ****** off back to yer own country"

In Roddy Boland's in Rathmines one night I overheard a group of Italian guys (tourists) trying to chat up two Irish girls and not getting very far.

One of the Italian's started waxing lyrical about one of the girls and her "beautiful pale skin" and said: "In my country, you would be a Princess"

To which the Irish girl replied "And in my country, you'd work in a chipper, now ****** off".

On the train home from work a couple of years back when I overheard two elderly ladies having a chat
Lady #1: "It's awful, when I was coming in this morning a man collasped on the carriage. I think he had a heart-attack. I must watch the news tonight. If he died they might give it a mention."

Lady #2: "Oh God thats horrible. I hope he didn't buy a return ticket."

My mate's mother was walking towards a bus stop on parnell street. A bus pulled in just before she reached the stop she went up to talk to the bus driver.....

Mate's mother: "What number bus is this?"

Bus driver: "Its a 40, it says so on the front"

Mate's mother: "Yeah, but it says 40a on the side and 40c on the back?!"

Bus driver: "Well I'm not going sideways or backwards!!!"

Dublin woman in Jonesboro Market at a garden ornament stall.

Woman "Whats that?
Salesman: "Thats a sun dial"
Woman: "what does it do"?
Salesman: "when the sun shines on it you can tell the time".

Woman: "What will they think of next"!

While watching an ad for concern, the voiceover says 'These people have to walk for 3 miles every day just to get water', to which my 5 year old nephew replied 'why don't they just move closer to the water?'.
