  • Gosh watch this woman for 1 min and half your IQ will be gone

  • @BonhommeHero

    True dat.

  • Oh dear.

    I can't add anything which hasn't already been said.

    Or in an Irish accent, "I don't tink I can add anyting dat hasn't alreddy been sed - it's a good deal, y'take it! D'y'like dags?"

    haha (actually that was Pikey) - (actually that was a Cockney take on Pikey)

    Irish is more like, "I'm from Belfast, am a gud person, and I like aaal d'people - but I'll fukkin fight anywan - any toym - any fokkin whehrrr - f'nothin' y'fukkin cunts ye!"

    hehehe

    (actually Belfast is north innit?)
