After literally no demand whatsoever, some important revisions have been made to the D4 rhyming slang.
While the vocabulary was already quite extensive, it’s come to my attention that there has never been a public update. Phrases are getting old and overused. If I hear someone say they’re on their “Tobler” once more, there’s a strong chance I’ll crack up.
So, below are the proposed new additions to the D4 rhyming slang vocabulary. Your feedback and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Donnybrook Fair – Au Pair
e.g. “You know yourself, things have been a lot easier since we got a Donnybrook Fair in.”
Ballymaloe – Poo
e.g. “I’m livid. My new Dubes are covered in dog’s Ballymaloe.”
Mrs Brown – Town
e.g. “Let’s get a few vodka soda water limes into us and then we’ll get an Uber into Mrs Brown.”
The Leona – Luas
e.g. “Not to brag but I’ve probably never paid for a ticket on the Leona.”
DJ Spiral – Viral
e.g. “Did you see that video of an asthmatic squirrel wearing Uggs? It’s gone DJ Spiral.”
Ballybrack – Shellac
e.g. “Gals, I’m livid. Have to go get my Ballybrack done again, it’s all chipped off!”
John Wayne – Champagne
e.g. “I’m absolutely parched waiting for a glass of John Wayne.”
Nutri Bullet – Mullet
e.g. “Have you seen Sorcha’s new haircut? I swear, it’s a Nutri Bullet!”
Sally Hanson – Handsome
e.g. “Deco is gorg. He’s so Sally Hanson” (Can be abbreviated to just ‘Sally’)
