    The dublin spicers?? Christ that sounds sooooo "gay".

    And comments on fashion are a bit rich from someone who can't string 2 words together without txt speak.

    Was in Dublin(outside Jervis SC) today and couldnt help noticing a gand of 6-8 young lads between 13 and 16 sporting the stupidest looking hair i had ever seen, long and straight at the back, spiked at the top, brushed to one side and flat on the front with red streaks goin at all sorts of angles.
    To add insult to injury, theese guys were wearing those gay sweat bottoms that are too short and elasticated at the bottom and up around thier ankles,
    I mean WTF, are the fellas gettin worse than the girls for personal appearence??
    Jesus!:eek:
    Brendan Kilkenny has kids?!?!?!?:eek:
    Who was that drunk?!?!:eek:


    Well you have to admit it sounds a bit like the appauling attempt of a hairdo he has.

    For the most part true for me too as I stick to my personal tastes, but for a while there unfortunately fashion decided it also liked my tastes... it felt weird...:(

    They couldn't look any worse than those grunger/goth pseudo-depressed, attention seeking muppets that wear black hoodies and leather trench coats on the hottest day of the year. Try not to smudge your make-up kids. Wouldn't want to look silly now

    Those trench coats were specially designed to keep you warm in winter and cool in summer!

    I dont know whats happened to kids these days (makes me feel old just saying it).
    I remember when i was 16, one of my friend grew a mullet, just for a laugh, in an ironic kind of way. We used to point and laugh at old metal videos where people like lars ulrich had massive mullets.
    We dressed in ripped jeans, flannel shirts, b&w converse, and had long hair. Sure we were all pretty much imitations of cobain & Vedder, but at least we didnt look like comeplete and total fcuksticks.
    Seriously, what the hell is wrong with these kids? do they not realise they look like complete tools? I have no idea where this craze came from, im assuming is some kind of bastardised evolution of the semi-mullet david beckham had a few years back, and these morons have just taken it to the Nth degree, but sreiously, someone needs to tell them "you look like complete pussies. you look like wimpy little bitches who spend more time primping your hair than doing anything else. Heres a fiver, got to a barbers, and get a rawblade. And stop being such a fcuking pussy".

    Are you unable to express yourself without calling people a load of homophobic names? I’m sure you’re the butchest and most fashionable person that ever graced us with your presence.

    It’s always been the right of passage for young people to experiment with cloths and fashions. I would advise some of you to open a photo album when you were young and have a good old laugh!

    I hear ya man.

    The worst is what I call the "downs syndrome" haircut.
    Its gelled heavily down the front in a fringe plastered to the face, tight on the sides, and spiked up on top. Makes it look as if they have a huge forehead and elongated head, much like a person with a chromosone disorder, which they don't have. Just an IQ and social individualism deficiency.

    I too find this very annoying, and to the OP, mullets should be left in the 80's where they belong... These "Hard" lads would've been beaten for even thinking about having a mullet when I was in school.

    i knew we'd rue the day we legalised haircuts other than short back and sides, we were much more individual then


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,295 ✭✭✭✭Duggy747


    Yea, the clothes are extremely gay-looking but that's the whole early 80's being back in fashion, still no excuse though! The hair is one thing but the clothes..............urrrgh, God!! It's like they went to a Yugoslavian bargain basement charity shop.

    Tight pants, checkered shoes, "zany" hair, vomit-inducing-top. It all screams fashion individuality..............if you dress the same as everyone else :confused:

    At least we can laugh now we have our straight back and sides and nice pair of brown slacks.

    Huh? Laugh that you've lost your fashion sense is it? Laugh that I'm an auld f8ck now wearin' sh*tty slacks?

    Mullets were cool when you were there age. There not going to grow out of it....there fashion sense will just change!

    Every age group has there own fashion sense. It's just the toolbags that never had any fashion sense in the first place that start wearing rubbish clothes. They have no-one to copy anymore.

    I don't like the way they dress either but I'm not trying to make it into a religion.

    Yeah and it's important to remember they look back on it when it's out of fashion...... but it's in fashion now in their social scene hence looks cool now.

    I bet they all think most of us look like planks.

    Ah yeah I see these everyday, we need the real knackers back! /rolls eyes

    Where did this "look" start?

    The funny thing is that the hardman attitude (that most of them have) doesn't match the gay appearance. Otherwise, I couldn't care less how they dress!

    I think in about 10 or so years they will look back at photos with a red face saying "what was i thinkin:o"

    I dont have to read past this post to agree. Twats.

    On further deliberation i believe its actually premiership footballers we have to blame for this phenomenon. They're the ones with the spice boy hair cuts, diamond ear-rings etc. but they all walk about with a contrasting hard man attitude to go with their pink shirts....

    I blame Steven Ireland and his contemporaries, who would have no problem walking around with a hard man grimace on his face, before he opens the door of his range rover sporting pink alloys/head rests/grills.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,374 ✭✭✭Gone West


    Haha, I'd say he thinks he's the shít as well.
    Look at that fly catching mouth, you can tell that he doesn't have a clue :)

    I've seen those nancy boys for a good while now. In my school last year, the mighty trend amongst the lads was to try to grow a 'tache. They only ended up looking like that freaky psycho baby belonged to Morticia&Gomez Addams in the Addams Family Values film.

    I liked that punk look from the late 70s in the UK. Looking at them now years later, they don't look like prats at all.

    That grunge look from the early 90s wasn't bad either if it was sported on the right sort of person. Like, some people just looked like they had just rolled off their mattress. On the other hand, some looked stylish. Chris Cornell always carried that grunge look well. BTW, I know it was only fashion mags and the general media who created that whole 'grunge look' stuff and that the bands roped into that 'grunge' category themselves were disdainful of the whole thing. Still, though.. Interesting.

    A "friend" of mine did this crimson-red mullet type look.. oh dear.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,508 ✭✭✭Jigsaw


    The best look is Canterbury track bottoms and trainers with no socks along with a rugby shirt. Perhaps get involved in rowing and wear the club fleece on a regular basis.
