“Póg Mo Thóin” is an Irish Gaelic phrase meaning “Kiss my ass,” often used as a playful or defiant expression. The phrase combines “Póg” (kiss), “Mo” (my), and “Thóin” (ass). While it has been part of Irish slang for years, it gained international fame through the Irish band The Pogues, whose name was inspired by the phrase. The band’s popularity in the 1980s, along with its use of the phrase in lyrics and album titles, helped spread “Póg Mo Thóin” beyond Ireland, making it a well-known expression of Irish humor and cultural pride
