On the same theme as the Tune Name Generator...

On the same theme as the Tune Name Generator...

Be prepared at your next session to say something even more Irish than "whale oil beef hooked"!

Next time someone messes up a tune, asks you to play Danny Boy, or just irritates you by playing an instrument you dislike, tell them:
Go n-ithe na gráinneoga cealgrúnacha do chuid calóga arbhair!
guh NYIH-huh nuh GRAWN-yoh-guh KYA-luhg-roo-nuh-khuh duh khwihj KAH-lo-guh AH-ruh-wir!
(Which means "May the malevolent hedgehogs eat your cornflakes.")

This is one of the funnier things I've seen recently. And perfectly G-rated, too!

This is another good one:

May a pitiless bureaucrat weaken your legs.
Go lagaí maorlathaí míthrócaireach do chosa.
guh LAH-gwee MWEER-lah-hee MEE-hro-kwih-ruhkh duh KHO-suh.

(I'm easily amused. :-) )
