I've only heard of two of these and had no idea that there was a "list" of Irish insults which to pull from when needed. More common ones are "a few sandwiches short of a picnic" "lights are on but no one's at home" "the train is at the station but no one's getting on" "the walls have ears" "mutton dressed as lamb" "I'll drink you under the table" and so on...
