Some Irish folks put the "so" at the end of the sentence, which is pretty out there.

You could normally say... So, I had a nice day today. Or in Ireland they'd say... I had a nice day so.

Which makes no sense because it would be fine to say... Um, I had a nice day... or even Ah, I had a nice day.

But I had a nice day um, or I had a nice day ah, would make little sense.

Logically, if someone says I had a nice day so... The response would be- yeah so what?

Which implies a lack of concern/interest in most English speaking countries.

'So' is a trending word. It took off like wildfire about 2 years ago in the financial media. Since then no-one....and I mean no-one, can answer a question without beginning with 'so.' Such herd mentality, such a pathetic desire to appear 'trendy.' It's the usual cheap m.o. of business speak, to kinda impress the audience that you are 'with it.' As a phrase, it will disappear as soon as the hoi polloi use it as nauseum. When everybody uses 'So' as a prefix to every sentence, it's time for investment fund managers to disown it and move on to the next incredibly cool, funky phrase.
