Don't call me that in public.

The automatic response when somebody says "Jesus Christ!" in exasperation. It implies that the person thinks you are divine compared to their sorry ass. There is also an undercurrent of blatant self-promotion, in that it's fine for them to call you the Lord behind closed doors, but you don't want them embarrassing themselves in public. This usually pisses them off, but it stops them from whining.

It can also be used when someone yells, "Jesus!" "God" or some related phrase.

Does not necessarily need to be used in public.

Mary: "eh my God, it is soooo hot outside. Jesus Christ!"
You: "Don't call me that in public."
Mary: "What?"
You: "You heard me."
Mary: "What?"
You (patronizing): "Shhhh..."

pulling an emer

moving into a house and starting a relationship/shagging/kissing/all of the above with one of the housemates.
Also known as shitting on your own doorstep, or shitting where you eat.
Rumoured to have originated in Dublin a while back when a well-known social butterfly started a relationship with a new housemate not long after moving in. Has since been used extensively in colleges throughout the capital.

I moved into a new gaff last week. There is a hot guy living there. I might end up pulling an emer on that shit

Pulling a Palin

Using terms like "blood libel" and creating other controversy in a never ending cycle to keep oneself in the spotlight long after their 15 minutes of fame has expired. Also creating drama to make it look like they're the victim after saying something stupid also applies.

I thought that horrible band would just fade away but they're pulling a Palin and now they have a reality show.
