English term or phrase: shite
You're full a shite...he said looking straight at me.
When you hear that coming in a slick Belfast accent, there's no mistake. Nobody was looking for trouble. Nobody had said a word to him. He seemed very drunk and his dark eyes looked across at me with intense rage or intense stupor.

tu es un con


Explanation:
Cette expression peut aussi servir de traduction a l'expression en question. Contrairement a "tu racontes que des conneries" elle decrit la personne en question, et non seulement ce qu'elle dit. Tu racontes que des conneries serait plutot utilise quand "you...shite" est utilise dans un cas particulier (par exemple entre amis)alors que l'expression ci-dessus serait plus agressive (contexte?) et ferait reference a quelqu'un qui est antipathique a la personne qui parle.
