4. You're some boyo.

7. Well, aren't you the cat's pyjamas?

8. Ah sure, you're no fun at all.
Definition: I really want to spend time with you but the only way I can convince you to do that is to tell you that you're no fun, but you are a lot of fun. Exactly the opposite of what I am saying here basically.
9. Ah, will you stop talking shite?!
Definition: Oh, please continue, you are hilariously funny.
10. Ah, your Ma!
Definition: We're so bad at compliments that we need to bring the family into it. "You're brilliant" to which the reply is inevitably "Your Ma!".
