No you are most definitely wrong. I actually quite like culchies, I have slowly come to accept them over time. It is not really a chip on the shoulder type of thing.

But McCreavy was overlooked with the decentralisation plan, very unfortunate for everyone really.

As I said culchies are fine, it is the climbing, settling ones that move up to the big smoke, they are the problem, they are the ones that phucked everything up.

It is all their fault in fairness, their school choices are elementary after that.

You really should not be giving RTE any credit for the accent, you're reaching too far there pal. Giving RTE credit for anything is not advised, they really don't deserve it.

As I said the accent was developed by ambitious young female culchie types, who wanted rich husbands.

It's 2019, there's about 200 different nationalities in this country and most of them in Dublin yet you're bladdering on about culchies like it's still 1985 when there was nobody else here.

I’m fairly certain most people from Dublin put on their accent, no matter what side of the socio-economic divide they’re on.

Blackock boys certainly dont put it on. The natural, genuine Rock accent, is perfectly good, and is indeed very characteristic of that school, and does also convey an authority, distinction, education level, and leadership character, that defines them as men of the highest quality.
Its when others ape it, and just dont manage it, that the poor and flawed effort, combined with them not being really that class of person in the first place, clearly comes off as fake or wannabe, and has the offputting effect that tends to be referred to and charicatured as a D4 accent. But very different to the pure or authentic Blackrock college accent.

Stop moaning ffs

Change the accents in that video to that of lads from de flats or ballyer and you’d see those defending these clowns banging a very different drum.

Those posh schools and latent homosexuality eh?

Some amount of resentment and jealousy in this thread. It’s utterly pathetic.

I can tell you this, if any of you were face to face with the lads in that clip you’d be singing from a different “hymn sheet”. That’s for sure.

It’s all so easy to “have a go” when you’re poured into a chair, hiding behind a computer screen.

If it was a bunch of kids from Kildare shouting about savage crack or kids from Dublin 1 shouting about a deadly buzz it would be completely innocent and fun and so is this!

What’s even more torturous is Jim McCabe Dublining up his accent and trying to be one of the lads. He always seems not quite sure how Dubliny to go.

Oh I just love the D4 accent and humour, dry wit and they're actually nice people.
Especially when they are down the country, great banter and they're very polite and friendly.

Never had a bad experience with them to be honest, and have a few good friends from there.

They're not as standoffish as people say they are.

The genuinely posh Dubs are great craic altogether and so are the ordinary working class too.

The ones I find insufferable are the narcissists who try to pretend they are really posh and then after a few drinks the facade drops. Seems to a be a far higher ratio of them from Dublin compared to all other counties.

The biggest pains in the hole in Dublin aren’t the lads from the fee paying schools, but the fücking rude, poorly educated, loud, and obnoxious ‘salt of the earth’ sorts from places like Finglas and Ballyfermot.

Taxi driver sorts with an accent that would wither small plants. You’d find a lot of them in Hill 16 on a match day.

I live in the place, pal. And like it. All I’m saying is that most lads from the fee paying schools are dead on, while the ‘sure I’m as Doublin as Ronnie Drew’ sorts are nearly always complete fücking arseholes. A lot of working class Jackeens have a very romanticised view of themselves.

There are decent and unbearable people in all sections of society. To say most lads from fee paying schools are "dead on" is a ridiculous statement, just as saying working class dubliners are "nearly always complete fvcking arseholes" is a ridiculous statement.

If you have an axe to grind at least admit it's your axe to grind and stop assuming to tar large groups of people with the one brush.

While I agree with what you are saying it seems to be fine for people to “punch up” at the D4 heads but it doesn’t work the other way.

Just look at what happened with all that “outrage” over the schools rugby chants of ‘We Pay Fees!’ or ‘Your Father Works For My Father’?

There’s a “double standard” there and no is talking about it.

I’ve no axe to grind. It’s my personal opinion based on experience that the commonly held narrative that people from the south side are knobs, while the average True Blue Dub is as sound a man as you’ll ever meet is false.

The True Blue Dub is usually a poorly educated knackball who mistakes vulgarity for wit, and who is jealous of anyone who isn’t as common and lazy as he is.
