Hi all you guys. Have I opened up a "Can of Worms" here, or is this the norm as to how things are done on this website? I'm completely new to this, and I find it rather amusing. Keep up the good and varied comments. JAMES D

Wow.

This is the most pathetic thing I have ever read.

Fighting online is like the Special Olympics, even if you win, you're still retarded.

It is with that, I give the Gold to "Ulster and Proud"...Though, I don't understand why he hasn't been blocked yet.

Seriously, Stephen, or Whatever your bloody name is. How old are you? I'd say you're acting like a 5 year old, but even my nephew has more respect than you.

Do you feel big insulting people on the internet? Being all hardcore with the keyboard

You must have the worlds most pathetic life, if you have to come home, hop onto your computer and insult people.

If we were all there with you in person...I imagine a few of us would be up for Murder in the first degree.....

Not your fault, it's just that we have a few people who tend to be rather argumentative.

Unless the next post on this thread is a comment on the original translation request, I'm probably going to lock it.

For reference, here is the original request:

Hey stupid, it's your wife calling! Will you answer the bloody phone? You eejit!

Here's what I suggested:

A amadáin, is í do bhean atá ag glaoch! Freagair an fón damnaithe, a ghámaí!

I also mentioned being unsure about "gámaí," but not wanting to repeat "amadán."

I also mentioned being unsure about "gámaí," but not wanting to repeat "amadán."

Or ''Uascán'' which is ''moron'', I wouldn't use amadán too since its at the start and to avoid repition.
