You are a skanger if...

If you couldnt be more scum if you deep fried your tracksuit.

You are not drunk, there are multiple public houses available for you to use, but you choose despite being a fairly well spoken and hot young lady to pull up your dress and have a piss in a corner beside the pub at 9pm.

If you try to get your bird into Portmarnock Golf Club

Deepest sympathies.

if you think the soapbar in your pocket is what bob marley was smoking.

if you think sinn fein are great, and the only irish phrase you know means 'our day will come'.

if you have a 'going out' tracksuit.

if the first thing said to you when you're wearing a suit is "would the defendant please rise".

if the gardaí know your family history.

you wear your neck jewellery outside your celtic jersey.

you wear a celtic jersey on a package holiday.

I had the misfortune to live beside glorious "skangers" of this type for a year and these were some of the skanger acts

- if its a hot summers day it is perfectly normal to bring your couch into the front garden and sit on it drinking your daily intake of 15 bottles of rolling rock
- Permanently have a mattress out your back garden and lie on it on summers days no matter how many times cats have pissed on it.
- Insist on calling your neighbour thomas even though he has told you on numerous occassions its not his name.
-Send your five year old to the shops across main roads without assistance and then scream at her what has taken her so long
-Go the whole hog and wear pyjamas constantly except for special occassions
- Play Whitney Houston and Eminem alternatively until your neighbours lose their minds
- Steal neighbours bin tags even though you dont require one cause your scamming the system.
-Buy bangers of cars leaking oil, drive them half cut even if you dont have a license and block your neighbours drive so that the sap cant leave for work in the morning
-Sit slackjawed on your neighbours wall if they are getting work done and comment on every aspect of it.
-Your runners look like those ones that hang of power lines.
-Use fake tan as ifts shower gel.
-Croak repeatedly at those f%^kin dopes who have more than 100 words in their vocab
-Give the impression you are a fitness fanatic by constantly wearing tracksuits until closer inspection shows up your badge of honour hot rocks burns.
-Act surprised when your neighbour wont lend you his mobile to ring your drug dealer cause you have no credit and need your money for drugs as opposed to topping up your credit
-If your standing at the bus stop rip off the timetable as you now know what time the bus comes at on Friday for the visit to Wheatfield/Joy

I could go on!!

This has come up a few times. So AH is either full of Gardai or lots of people spent time in the company of skangers.

If you wear a huge diamond earring in your left ear, much like your rapper idols.

Caco

You walk out in front of moving traffic with your hand up expecting it to stop
You speak loudly down the phone to your mate (i.e. dealer) on public transport about future prospective transactions

That right there was one of the main reasons I left Bebo! (aside from it being rubbish, generally.)

You're a skanger if your boyfriend is also your brother.

Ah here, some of ye're descriptions of skangers are just descriptions of teenage fads. eg TyPiiN LiiKE DiiS BaBii, earrings, pink t-shirts, tucking trackies into socks.

Agricola

If you drive a white mid-ninties Glanza or Civic with crazy alloys.
If you're 5ft 7, and wear a basecap cap which makes it look like a cap is actually driving the car by itself.
If you listen to crazy jungle music in your Glanza/Civic which makes my teeth vibrate while Im sitting behind you at a traffic light.
If youve bolted a funnel off the titantic onto the back of your tiny car.

That is all.

yerayeah

If you drink cans of dutch around town at any hour of the day.

If you plaster your hair to your forehead with gel.

If you wear those skin tight underarmour and the like to clubs...

They have their own brand of shoes now? Maybe that's why they all wear the same ones.

irishultra

I've had a knack call me foreign when speaking irish.

basically skangers hate the brits but embody the worst aspects of that (British) culture.

Hallmarks of a skanger:
supports 'the pool', or are Manchester United or Celtic fan. Normally has not idea who Celtic are playing or any of their players but say you support them because they're 'Irish'

Are apathetic or have a hatred for non-anglophone culture.

Obsessed with celebrity culture. Love shows like Britains got talent and X-Factor.

Read papers like the 'Irish' sun and the 'irish' daily mail.

i would imagine alot of peoples favourite holiday destination is one of the canary islands given that its the only place in "europe" guaranteed warm weather year round, you could have been more specific ie skangers never leave playa de las americas or playa de las ingles the entire two weeks they are there
