Has a public moustache on their upper lips if they're male and a teenager, has a council facelift if female. If overweight, women must wear belly tops. Tracksuits are necessary - any attempt to return shellsuits to chav de rigeur is welcomed.

Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

Is this a Doobalin thing? Fellow smokers expressed surprise when I pulled out a 20 pack of JPB there last Friday. "Only skangers smoke those", I was told.

Never used to be that image attached to them up there...

"Trackies" tucked in socks with those really big nike trainers. Truely horrible. I really don't understand how they find that to be "fashionable."

I must say though, these threads always have the habit of brining out the worst in people. €20 says someone will get banned before this thing is closed

Males: Perpetual scowl on their faces, they assume they are from the wrong side of the tracks and are living in a socioeconomic trough surrounded by well to doers. They hate the idea of being less intelligent than others, so smash stuff and people in some sort of dramatic artistic representation of inner genius and self loathing.
Wardrobe: Nike air max, tracksuit, gold rings acquired either through someone owing them money for hash or the half price jewellers on Henry St.

Females: Learned how to read off the back of pregnancy tests. Cant wait to get "Mard-ied" to "Whacker". No real aspirations in life, just keep firing out the sprogs till the government stops paying per head. Occasionally get the bus into town with friends, comment on all the other women on the bus. Hoping for one to make a comment back so they can jump her and beat the crap out of her for having a shnizz that doesn't resemble the Dublin port tunnel.

Wardrobe:Tracksuit or pyjamas depending on distance of journey outside of council palace. Large hoop ear rings. Sovereign rings on all fingers.

I dunno, I'm from Dublin and I'm far from being a skanger (long hair, leather trench-coat and the like) and I smoke John Player Blue, I know a lot of the dirt-bags smoke them aswell but I've never heard of this "only skangers smoke JPB" thing, everyone in Dublin smokes them don't they?!

And isn't there a thread in Feedback recently about this subject? I think it reached over 100 signs of a skanger

People like to slag how others dress. Tracksuits are the fashion. Simple as. Just because it does nothing for you doesn't mean it's ridiculous they wear it. Just like other people wear certain things they consider to be in fashion.

So fair enough if you say that tracksuits are the first thing that come to mind but your not better than them purely on the fact you don't wear what they wear.

I guarantee that those who saw you smoking JPB were either smoking marlboro/lights or camel lights.
Sheep mantality on both sides of the fence when it comes to cigarettes in Dublin.
I'm almost tempted to start smoking JPB just to piss those people off.

Right. I've a thread in works.
It'll take a couple of weeks as I'm bookmarking certain posts at the moment.

That was intentional!! Haven't you noticed that as soon as they hit puberty they start growing moustaches and the attempts are invariably dreadful. We termed them pubic moustaches when I was in secondary school - but then that was more than 12 years ago!

They ask random people for cigarettes then say something foul to them if they the person doesn't give them one.

Hang around shops.

Randomly goes around asking people "Ya ever been pooonched in the faze before?" *WHACK* Punches the guy in the face and says "Shweeeeeh... Now you have". One guy did that to my mate before on Paddie's day 2006. I kicked the fooooken crap out of him!!!!

They should all be exterminated. And no, I'm not posh, I come from a "disadvantaged" (Kinda) area.

Usually the oul "have you got a smoke" is the pretext to an attempted mugging/beating. Anytime someone dodgy comes up to me and asks for a smoke I'm ready to let rip.
