Skangers

SA = South Africa.
It says alot that he would prefer to return to a post-apartheid country that is apparently ravaged by violent crime where decent citizens have to barricade themselves into their homes than deal with the daily scum in our cities here in friendly old Erin, the land of the thousand stanley-blade weilding scangers.

Are skangers just a Dublin (Cork/Limerick) thing?

I can see exactly who you mean, in Dublin, but I don't see that many/any in the towns. Am I wrong?

Anyone else living outside the capital, what's your opinion on tihs?

Now, I am distinguishing skangers from Travellers, or in this thread somewhere have they become intertwined?

The way I look at it is that everywhere has their knackers (or red-kneck) but Dublin has a super-breed of knacker, i.e. the Skanger.
The knacker you can more-often-than-not ignore but the skanger... well the skanger is different.

Cork has it's fair share of knackers as well. Pretty much the same as the dublin breed except the cork knacker accent is sort of deep and the dublin knacker accent tends to be more high-pitched and shrill.

The first thing I noticed when moving from Cork to Dublin was the sounds coming from the back of the bus. In cork it sounds like a gorilla or an elephant or some other large creature having an ejaculation when they get over excited. In Dublin when they get all hyper and over excited it's like listening to a cave of bats or something.

No you get the the same inbred looking, tracksuit wearing, sovereign wielding scangers all over the UK and Ireland, and Eastern Europe for some reason too. I haven't seen any in countries like France, Germany, or Italy.

If you were watch some shows on BBC 2 about working class families in the UK you will see a lot of skangers. Also places like Glasgow have a lot also.

Do skangers know they are skangers? Do you know everytime they insult someone on the bus for askign them to stop smoking, or when someone asks them to turn off they mobile in the cinema, or when they are shouting at their friend who is usually 100m away at the time?

ColinM · 26-09-2003 3:14pm

In Glasgow and Edinburgh they are known as NEDs: Non-Educated Dregs (of society). I think it's a good name. It also helps to distinguish better between the sometimes overlapping connotations of skanger and knacker.

I would suggest something which we could put in the water which would steralise them....skangers breed skangers.

And yes...i think dublin has a breed of super skanger which has occured due to so much inbreeeding of the skanger gene that it has resulted in a pure strain of skangerism.

Also if anyone would like to form a hit squad to rid the city of these social burden then please PM me.

I'm only kidding about the hitsquad thing.

The something in the water idea is probably a better idea than ixoy's plan which involves rounding them up and shooting them. Of course in a civilised society we are unfortunately restrained from actually killing them.
It would obviously be the kindest thing to introduce some of the methods of eugenics and enforced sterilisation.

At the moment, there is a voluntary group in America who pay drug addicts to stop having children and voluntarily elect for sterilisation, and thus stem the vicious circle of drug addiction and poverty caused by having several children born with drug addictions and HIV. This programme may sound abhorrent to some people, but it is completely voluntary on the part of the drug addicts . I'll try and find some links later.

The only problem i have with that programme is the word voluntary.

What do you call a skanger in a white shell suit?
The Bride

If it walked it'd get mugged

Yip, i have seen a few 'super skangers' about. They are the ones who look deformed and would steal the eye out of your head as soon as look at you.

One of these were on the radio once, he brandished 15 sovereign rings daily. Don't worry, it didn't affect his job, as he never had one. :rolleyes:

I completely agree with you! I live close to these skangers too, and I ****ing detest them. For anyone trying to defend them, try travelling upstairs on the 27 bus sometime.
At the moment I'm in Calgary, and I'm really torn between moving here or moving to some remote part of western Ireland, definitely won't be staying in Dublin. Calgary is literally a breath of fresh air.

spooiirt!! · 30-10-2003 11:05am

the skangers arent that bad. they control the knackers. anyways im livin in germany now , so those mad b@stards arent a problem 4 me anymore. however, i do slightly miss there funny, quaint little accents. and german scumbags are pretty bad. therefore i propose the "International Scumbag Exchange Programme", because what would be more interesting than getting to see scumbags from all around the world!

loismustdie · 30-10-2003 4:50pm

yeah, we don't like yucky cats goin round but they take care of the rats, tis a viscious circle, someones' gotta do it

charlene · 16-11-2003 4:53pm

Utility,
I'd hate for you to really nuke them all if that's what it says
seeing that the block in the picture is the one that my family live in. I must say a splended choice.

an when you're in argos in future you should try thinkin about what you went in to buy or where you're going next because you should live your own life, i doubt the "skangers" waste their time thinkin about you

Couldn't be arsed browsing through the whole 18 pages. But so far this is the only post that I can take seriously. I was reading all the posts up to this one and thinking "My god, what's with all the hatred on this thread. Why do these folks have so much hatred for 'skangers'?" I see people with blind hatred for skangers every day and they're all against racism but then they turn around with this huge hatred for the group that has been so kindly dubbed as skangers. Maybe these people I know have a different definition of skanger than you people have, but theirs seems to be someone who has a kind of rough accent, using slang along the lines of "DEADLY BUZZ", and who dresses in reebok/addidas/what have you. As soon as you have these things, you're gonna be hated by those people.

Anyway, loismustdie, you're damn right.

quank · 16-11-2003 8:43pm

Seriously now. How long have the people that are supporting these skangers lived in Ireland? God! Do you know what they are like, I live in Blanch, not many, but quite alot still. Alot of my friends HAVE and/or nearly been mugged by skangers..... and WAIT!
It's ONLY skangers that have mugged or nearly mugged my mates..... the ones with the typical dress code and obvious accents

loismustdie and co. ....... you're blinded with idioticy(SP?):rolleyes:

Töpher · 16-11-2003 10:46pm

personally i have a hatred towards them, and i'm not gonna try to deny it. mainly because i've been mugged or just had the **** kicked outta me so many times by them i find it hard not to hate them! now i know not all skangers have mugged me, or beat me up, but, i dont wanna take the chance to get to know the rest of them any more than i want to be gang-raped in the phoenix park!

i have to say i think i have a lil more hatred for them than ANYONE, we should get together sometime, i think we'd get on quite well,,,,

in my eyes these people are the lowest form of human beings on earth!! a few years ago me and my friend were in the square in talla, it was quite late, but SIX scum decided to start on me because of WOT I WAS WEARIN(go figure) we ended up beatin the **** outta them(teh most joyous moment of my life),,,

in my 5 years of living in talla, my mothers car windows have been broken FIVE times, my bro's car was broken into THREE times, one time he interrupted their fun and chased them away, they came back ten minutes later with some friends and decided to throw a FIVE FOOT steel pole through our front room window, nearly hitting my mother, also from stuff like that we have had constant stones at the window and fireworks through the letter box, but by far the worst was when my bro's girlfriends car was TORCHED right in the front ****in garden,,

so to ANYONE who tries to defend these ****in pricks.. FUK U!!,
come and live where i live for a week and we'll see if u feel the same way!!

u say ur da is a gard and this has turned u away from being the same thing, i am the opposite, next year i'm applyin to be a gard and god help any of these fukrs.. anyway, i'd love to move out of this ****hole(ireland) but i feel i have a duty to stay and help other people who have gone through wot my family has gone through,,

anyone ho disagrees with me in anyway, i dont give a fukk.. kiss my ass

Töpher · 17-11-2003 12:07am

exactly! crucifixion is too good for these bstrds!
i live down by the rds, which luckily is quite a good area, but once a year the magical funderland comes to town! scum of the world unite. every year we have to pay hundreds on replacing windows that had full bottles of beer flung thru them or car windows smashed etc etc, you get the picture. i know it isn't as bad as some of you have to face daily, but theres something scary about walking outside and seeign 600 scumbags outside your house at the busstop. lol. surprisingly never been beaten up there tho, thats alwatys elsewhere.

D!ve^Bomb! · 17-11-2003 1:17am

i think we should form a social club,, no skangers allowed of course!!

by the by,, i have decided that in the last days of my like, I WILL buy myself a baseball bat, insert a rather large rusty nail in the end of it and proceed to walk around my estate in talla and begin to beat the living **** out of anyone i see sittin on a wall in freezin cold temperatures, drinkin a can of dutch gold or have a 3 litre bottle of cider, askin each other ''got any skinz bud?sound'', pretty much everybody in my estate..

i say i'll do it in the last days of my life as it seems pointless to go to jail for years,if i wait, i will have lived a long prosperous life and shall die happily:)

anyone who thinks i'm jokin, keep an eye out in the news in bout 50years;)

anyways, who's up for the club?

Yeah we'd lose a few innocents in the process of the 'Cleansing', however it would be for the good of the entire nation, if not the world.

Of course, I wouldn't really nuke 'the knacks' - I'm not a total asshole! I wouldn't waste the price of a nuke on those knackers...I mean, why use a nuke when conventional explosives would probably do the job just as well...

niallith · 17-11-2003 3:12am

tbh i cant stand the ****ers there all jus inconsiderate bastards i dont really care about how they dress but they jus knobs only thing that makes me not ben proud of irish is them they jus giv every1 a hard time.and they jus start on yah for no reason
my friend got a stone in the head by one of them b4.we was jus walkin through the area and then started thrown stuff at us and he had to go to hospital to get stitches i dont c how any1 could support them..

spooiirt!! · 17-11-2003 8:48am

exactly. were not judging them on their horrible clothes or ridiculous accents, but because they all act like ass holes all the time. they mug people, intimidate people, and also count as optical pollution cos of their ugly faces and little taches.
