    One that really bugs me, though it's a mispronunciation, rather than using the wrong word, is people who say tremendjus. Let me say this for the benefit of such people .. there.is.no.****ing.J in.tremendous. Got it ? Grrrr.

    Oh, and one for our northern contributors please. Why do you use "whenever" instead of the correct word, "When" e.g "whenever I had my dinner yesterday" How many times did you have your dinnner ? Very annoying.
    Out for a spell, got neglected, lay on the bench unselected.

    Northerners do have their own quare dialect. Not sure, being from Kerry (mind you the first thing Lim till i die said to me when he met me was that I was very well spoken for a Kerryman!) that I'm in a position to complain though.

    But anyway, a Donegal friend of mine used to always say 'but' at the end of a sentence when I would use 'though'. Like, 'Tim, are you going to the shop?' 'Aye, it's raining but.' Used to really annoy me, I think usage has abated recently but.

    In general Irish people's pronunciation is pretty poor I think, but it adds variety so I try not to get too caught up in any nerdishness. (but over emphasising the -ise at the end of words such as compromise, or emphasise itself, is one I can't go left unsaid though, a little beat noire of mine) Likewise, jumbling metaphors should be embraced. One fine example came from An Seanad in 1961 when it was said that parent-teacher committees might prove to be "the thin edge of the wedge which opens the floodgates and torpedoes the whole system of education."

    I'm pretty sure this was deliberate but it's a fine example from the thread on Padraig Harrington

    Yeah it was deliberate. Honest! Pretty funny one, if I may hail so myself. Oh God, this is all going down like a lead baboon.

    Did you ever notice that in every painting of Adam & Eve, they have belly buttons. Think about that...take as long as you want.
