10 contacts every Irish person has in their phone

But you’ll never clear them out. No way.

1. A Lad/Lassie You Shifted Three Years Ago And Pledged To Text, But Never Did

Picture the scene. It’s a cold October night and you’re in Flannery’s, talking shite in the smoking area when a young man named Oisin comes along and asks you for a lighter. You don’t, but you strike up a conversation with him nonetheless.

Within minutes, you’re shifting and when you both decide to come up for breath, you exchange numbers. You promise to text him, but never do. Except for that time you accidentally include him in a “Happy Christmas!” group text.

Morto.

2. F**k Knows

You most likely met this mysterious person on a night out. After a few drinks and bops on the dancefloor, you became fast friends.

Unfortunately, you decided to assign them a ‘funny’ name in your phonebook and for the life of you, you can’t remember who they are. Shame because you got on so well.

3. A Delivery Man You Once Had A Back-And-Forth With

“Hi, I’m here with your ASOS package.”

“Oh crap, I didn’t realise you were coming today. Would you be able to come tomorrow at all?”

“Ugh fine, okay.”

“Hi, can you give me directions to your house?”

“Okay, so you’re at the petrol station, are you?”

And so on.

4. “Ruth Mc”

You did a group project with this girl about seven years ago. A friendship didn’t blossom and the last you heard, she was in Vancouver.

So now.

5. A Taxi Service In Co. Kerry From That Time You Went On A Weekend Away There

A few years ago, you went to Kerry and being the Sensible Sally that you are, you decided to save all the local taxi service numbers in your mobile.

You ended up hailing one in the end.

6. ICE Home

Ah yes, your “in case of emergency” contact. More for your Mam’s peace of mind than anything.

7. A Contact You Have Whose Presence Startled You

“HOW DID YOU GET IN MY PHONE BOOK?”

Until you realise that their number is clearly linked to their Facebook account.

Phew. 

8. The Arse Contact

*sits on phone*

“Who is R&$$$$$$### # 9?”

9. Person Whose Phone Number You Got On DAFT and Who Never Replied To You

Text #1: “Hi there, my name’s Amy and I’m just getting in touch regarding the flat! It looks really lovely and I’d love to check it out if possible.”

Text #4: “U there?”

Text #5: “Wrong number lol”

Text #9: “Please can I see the flat”
