D4's

a 'gang' of lads didnt jump on his head(of course i'm merely going by hearsay from people i know, some of whom are close to those involved so take with a pinch of salt). i'm gonna be honest, if was the northside i'd think scumbags, yes, only because i feel (stereotypically) that southside people from good schools would have more cop on that to behave like that, so circumstances and explainations IMO are merited. i know alot will disagree with that point, but i also know alot will agree...but sure isnt that what forums are all about

exactly Being honest, I would have thought the same as well, but it's a lesson I've learned from this episode.

We still talkin bout "D4s"?

All the profiling is bull****.
There are dickheads in Abercrombie hoodies.
There are sound people in Abercrombie hoodies.
There are dickheads in Dublin 4.
There are sound people in Dublin 4.
There are dickheads in Blackrock College.
There are sound people in Blackrock College.
There are dickheads in 'rough' areas.
There are sound people in 'rough' areas.

There are dickheads in every corner of the world.
There are sound people in every corner of the world.

Anybody who berates or abuses or casts the members of entire societies/geographical locations/postcodes/institutions/lifestyles/whatever else into the same category (when it is not based on fact) is closed-minded, ignorant and basically racist.

Unless of course you know every single person in said society/geographical location/postcode/institution/lifestyle/whatever else well enough to form an opinion on each individual. Then you are entitled to your opinion.

Otherwise, grow up.

that sentance makes no sense Anybody who casts the members of entire societies/geographical locations/postcodes/institutions/lifestyles/whatever else (casts them into what...catagory's, classes or type?) is closed-minded, ignorant and basically racist.

how does me stating that in general northsiders are of a lower income bracket then south siders make me a racist, ignorant or close minded?

I have respect for the ppl from dublin, i always found them to be really friendly and i love dublin city but after reading this whole topic i feel the majority of u havent done very much for the 'good' image of the city or the people in it. thats how it seems to someone not from dublin. everyone is talking about groups and sterotypes within dublin...when really it would be easy for anyone like myself from outside dublin to put u ALL under one 'group' or 'class' after reading this topic...

I actually blanked a 'wannabe' D4 bitch back in April or so.

Now it's not like me to blank a good looking chick or anything but I met her on a night out in Drogheda. She said to text her and all, and as you know if she won't shag ya on the first night she has to be half decent!!

Then one day, myself and a friend were in Stephen's Green Pk, enjoying the only decent weather of 2007, I was texting this chick, who happened to be in a year under my sister, doing the same course in UCD.

Now it was down to my sister's infornative lingo to me telling me of how the shams like to refer to "BT's" etc.....

low and behold, I was texting her, she had been in Grafton St, I said what were you up to - she was all "well just dropped into BT's to get xy + z

I never spoke to her again.....

True Story.

edit: she was from Julianstown

edit: My ma's from 'D4' also - Ringsend!!

I didn't bother reading after the first post so sorry if the OP turned out to be a troll. Just wanted to say that it pleases me greatly that my betters seem to be functionally illiterate.

fake tan and wearing pointlessly expensive clothes is vanity. vanity is bad for one ones self psychologically and also it is a bad example for younger children.

one shouldnt spend that much money needlessly on ones appearance. just wear the clothes that you need. cheap and practical. and give the rest of your extra money you were willing to spend on stupid clothes to a charity, like cancer research or child abused children. whats wrong with pennys? cheap, good practical clothes.

stop being so self absorbed, and give back to society.

Pennys clothes are cheap!



and badly made

you pay a higher price for quality
