You taking the piss of my accent boy!? :pac:

lol this thread could have been predicted as soon as the "do you hate culchies" thread was first posted. All it needed was one culchie to be offended enough, and lacking any sort of originality, to start an almost identical thread to get one over on us upper crust ignorant "jackeens", or this new "howya" entity, which im assumin is a scumbag.

so actually, this thread is really "do you hate scumbags/knackers"? Was this thread not covered already?

Probably, at least my accent will never been confused for a traveller.

And the travelling community are just as glad that they wont be mistaken for Howyas.

On a everyone hates everyone topic ... I was in Heuston station yesterday and a middle-aged Howya was trying to order a breakfast roll. Could barely understand his manky accent myself so it was worse for the foreign staff member (seemed to be Eastern European). Eventually he got what he asked for and with that he turned away grumbling ... "Fcukin blacks, cant even understand English". Rest of the people looked around in confusion as they server clearly wasnt black!

OP is just jealous that people from Dublin have laces in their shoes and wear long pants.

I wonder if he wrote this in between ploughing fields?

At least he bought the clothes he's wearing, and not nicked it off a randomers washing line, f**king ladies clothes aswell.

Had an encounter with 2 drunken howyas in Dublin at the weekend. I returned to my hotel at about 3am and while walking to my room I see a woman (drunkish) trying to get into her room. She asks can I help her with the card so i oblige. Anyway card isnt working (I think she was at the wrong room ) I ask her a few times is she sure of the room number and if so to head to reception to get it sorted. Ya I not dat tick was the response. Next thing this guy gets out of the lift and starts shouting 'F*ck off, be off wit ya continuously. She said dont be so rude but he kept saying "I know where hes coming from" like I wanted to shag his missus. I walk away with him shouting F*ck off and her shouting "Sary". He was a real scumbag and I could just imagine him giving her a few slaps when they got into the room.

Splendid example of the written english abilities of the country folk.

Well done you.

The difference is he probably realises he missed out his punctuation!

F'in grammar police again :rolleyes: - Dubs would be brought up on that score just as much if not more than country folk... btw that should have read English

You guys really don't like it when the boot is on the other foot do youse!

So first of all you copy and paste my post into a word processor in an attempt to find a grammatical error and secondly you assume that I am a Dub.

You are clever. Well done.

So first of all you have a go at nitpicking a perfectly valid bit of commentary just because a guy has left out some punctuation ... well bully for you...

Secondly I spotted the english mistake on my own ... but I'll be perfectly honest I did confirm it with a word processor.

Thirdly.. If you're not a Dub then you're an even sadder individual.

Fourthly thx for resurrecting this thread

Now go away and play with the traffic.

Edit: just thought of something else.... If you were actually praising the guy's English instead of being sarcastic now that would be really funny...hmmm

An important point here is that not all Dubs are howyas, but all boggers are boggers!:pac:

see this is da problem... Dubliners tend to lump all us Culchies into 1 group.... which c'mon now if you got any sense or in any way are a rational individual you know is not true. It's like the Brits with the dumb Paddy thing... there's plenty of examples of Tik oirish if that's all you want to see but it's not the whole picture... you see us 'Boggers' as you so eloquently :rolleyes: call us are smart enough to realise that there are many different sorts of Dubs.

You got your semi-Howyas, your Uber-Howyas. Your Solid salt of the earth working Class Dub. Your Middle class Dub - who can suffer from attitude issues at times due to not being a howya and not being able to pass as a D4 head either - if they get over this and are exposed to other positive cultural influences then they are normally bang on, if not they post derogatory things on Boards about culchies and foreigners.

Your rare posh Northsider from the likes of Clontarf and Howth etc.

And of course your D4 head - Who seem to be universally hated particularly from other Dubs I will add, and to a large extent I can't argue with that, but some(just some ) of them are alright 'n all.

I bloody love AJH's! I owe them my life!

One day I got a bit too playful with my dog and fell into the canal near Dolphin's Barn. I can't swim and the current was very strong. I started to drown! Luckily there was a most helpful local nearby who threw me one of her ear rings which I grabbed and held on to for dear life. I kicked my way to a shopping trolley near a bridge which I used to pull myself free from all the nappies and bagged cats my legs became tangled in.

As I struggled for breath, the local lady did offer me mouth to mouth but unfortunately I didn't have the necessary €50! She did manage to get me to a local garage where I was able to phone Jeeves who got the Beemer around to me quick smart! I fully recovered after about two hours and I was snorting porridge in Lillies like a TD that night!

....God bless you Howaya's! I salute you!
