Ah, Google. You know us feckin' gobshites better than we know ourselves.
Having stumbled across a funny definition for an Irish slang term on the search engine, we decided to check out what else they had in their locker.
When we found out, we weren't disappointed. Some of the definitions of our favourite words are absolutely gas and the example sentences they use are even better.

Which ones have they missed? Let us know in the comments.

'On the hop' would also have been accepted.
Straight to the point.
That's the whole shebang now, thanks for reading.
