The reality is, there's nothing all that great about Dublin.

But If you feel it's such a great place, why not move back...

You won't tell us where you're from. Ashamed, I guess.

I could tell you I'm from New York, London, Hong Kong...what difference would it make where I'm from?

It doesn't change Dublin, unfortunately.

You obviously had to leave it...I doubt that's because it's such a great place to be.

When someone from Dublin says you are, and then it leaves your mind in an instant...... Then two years later another Dubliner tells you, and then it leaves your mind in an instant, then maybe a year later another Dubliner tells you yor're a culchie and again it leaves your mind in a nano second..... And so it goes on and on and on and on and on blah blah blah :cool:

You're used to get slagged and called various names by jackeens that in turn get offended when you call them jackeens.

You refer to any vehicle with 4WD or AWD capability as a "Jape", except of course for any real Jeep which you call a "4be4".

I've definitely seen people get offended by it on the internet. I don't know about the real world, I've never used it, and rarely hear it used.

Anyway, the use of the J-word by non-Dubliners, and culchie by Dubliners says a lot more about the idiots who use them than the people at whom they are directed.

I find it so ridiculous that someone from outside Dublin would even think we would. It's so completely outdated that it's not applicable anymore.




Probably the one thing I would find offensive is the snobbery directed at North Dubs from some people from the country but I find snobbery offensive anyway no matter who it's directed at. Says more about the person doing the insulting than their "target" tbh.

You also use phrases like "he'd put years on you.."

Would it not be rich southsiders that would be directing snobbery at their northside cousins rather than anyone else?

Not in my experience, funnily enough. Most of the venom on Boards is not from rich Southsiders, it's people from outside of Dublin calling Dubs "skangers". I doubt Southsiders would be labelling Dubs "Skangers" or "Scumbags" now, would they? Don't tell me you don't see it.


Edit: No doubt there's snobbery there too but it's a bit of a fallacy to say it only comes from there. Anyway, this thread is not about them.
