IF STAR WARS WAS SET IN LIMERICK

    Chewbacca would look roughly the same except he'd only be about 6'6"
    tall, from "The Ciddy" and have no name. He'd have the same amount of
    body hair but would also have tattoos, would permanently smell of drink
    and wear a leather waistcoat. LOVE and HATE would be tattooed to his
    knuckles. He'd work as a bouncer in Kilmurry Lodge..

    Obi-Wan Kenobi would invariably be referred to as the Big Fella..
    People trying to start a fight with him would refer to his mother or
    describe him as "you big ****ing knob"..

    Darth Vader would be referred to as "Da Feen" and wear the mask because
    he was viciously attacked by a drunken wino one night outside Todds and
    still bears the horrific scars. He would be a member of the Kelly family
    and would be driven around in the back of a hiace looking for a fight
    off the tinkers down Rebouge..

    Princess Leia would be called Princess Leanne and would have her hair
    dyed blonde since she was 12 and be referred to as a "byoor" or "your
    one". She and her 5 year old would live in the Chicken Hut and would be
    the prime catch..

    R2D2 would refuse to go out on the streets after 10pm because of the
    number of students who would try to puke into him or tie their bicycle
    to him, or take him home to decorate their sitting room in Elm Park. He
    would also refuse to go the Ennis Road for fear of being run over by a
    drunken Volvo driving Ralph Lauren clad rugby player..

    Gangs of "wahs" hanging around outside Arthurs Quay park or Ballinacurra
    smokin' gonj and carrying stanley knives uttering things such as "djuno
    wad I mean like?" or "wad are you say'n ?" would also seriously endanger
    his life..

    The Ewoks would be the annoying little *******s that go looking for
    fights with guys 3 times their age and 4 times their size. They'd hang
    around Cruises Street and instead of chanting mumbled songs, would shout
    obscenities such as "Come on, do you want a fight you faggit" or "I'll
    knock you out" at passers-by or the Hari Krishna's selling books of a
    Saturday morning.. Instead of having flimsy bits of clothes made out
    animal skins, they'd wear baggy, puffy Adidas, Nike and Le Coq Sportif
    sports clothes in flouresant colours..

    The Battle for Endor would actually be just rival youth gangs from
    Southhill and Moyross..

    Jabba the Hut would be a pimp, living down the dock road in Ranks..
    Along with all the prostitutes and drugs, he'd also dabble in a bit of
    radio piracy. He'd be the main D.J. and would play dance music all day
    long. Things like this would be heard on the station:"I'd like to give a
    big shout out to Jacinta and Tommy, dair in O' Malley Park. I know Tommy
    and he loves feekin de byoors. We'll have somethin' from de Vengaboys
    dair for yu in about two minites."

    Luke Skywalker from Tatooine would be Mikey O' Shea from Killmallock and
    would get a baitin' every Saturday from the Wahs hangin' around in the
    Savoy Cineplex down Bedford Row when he'd come into the city. He would
    be referred to as a "****in' spa of a Farmer."

    Although proficient in over 3,500 languages C3PO would still be unable
    to understand what anyone who works on the DELL line says. He would be
    referred to in the local vernacular as "a ****ing queer"..

    The storm troopers would be called "De Shades" and wouldn't fight the
    rebel alliance, they'd drive around in "Paddywagons" and spruced-up ford
    mondeos and be involved in high speed chases at 2 in the morning after
    stolen honda civics around the Roxboro
    area..

    The Millennium Falcon would have alloy wheels, a body kit, 5 spots on
    the front bumper and the chassis would be no higher than 4cm off the
    ground and would often be found abandoned near the Roxboro roundabout or
    down de Island field. It would have a 'No Fear' sticker in the back
    window and a Supermac's "UP LIMERICK" sticker dating from 1996 on the
    windscreen. It would have four spoilers and a muffler on the exhaust and
    be constantly tuned into Kiss FM.. 'The Launch' would be heard from
    miles around from the five 90 Watt speakers placed around the interior..

    Princess Leia would get captured by Darth Vader because it's hard to run
    very fast when you're wearing 5 inch platform heels and a tiny silver
    mini-skirt which keeps hiking up over your **** every two steps.
    Especially through piles of puke outside Supermac's..

    Very funny n' very true. One thing though..
    If Starwars was set in Limrick would the knackers hanging aroung Chawkes looking for faaigs still be just be the knackers hanging around Chawkes looking for faaigs or would they be cast as a different species of scavengers?

    And what is it with 12-year-olds dying their hair blonde? So many of 'em do it down my way you'd swear it was contagious. You'd mistake the gaff for Sweden!

    My own personel favorite used to be the goths who hung out in front of Todds. Don't know if they're still there or not, but they used to make me yearn for suicide and The Smiths, for some strange reason..

    Say hello to my little friend !!!
