We Irish invented Arse.... just like we invented feck instead of f**k. Its just a nicer way of displaying your anger it is... i think the English adopted these words once Father Ted appeared on our screens a few years back. :-)

BTW, me grandmum (born Dundee, Scotland, 1894, God Rest Her Soul), always used the word "arse", but isn't it just like the Irish to be claimin' they invented somethin' first? Bloody boggies! No offense, me gramper was a Higgins, so I'm as much Irish as Scots... BB
