Killinarden, Jobstown, Tymon... I rest my case.

Chavs.

layke · 25-09-2005 7:53pm

I work in Tallaght and there are FAR FAR worse places.

Yes it was bad 10 years ago, but i'd feel quite safe walking about at night now.

Problem is the bad name is still there many years after.

Motion to lock seconded.

Gick · 26-09-2005 8:03pm

why the hell do you guys want to lock this thread,if you don't like the thread no-one's forcing you to read it,now stop trying to ruin it for everyone else.Back on topic I hadn't noticed Tallaght changing at all during the last ten years I think other areas are just starting to get back aswell and are making Tallaght not stand out,look how hard the Perrystown and Orwell chaps think they are thse days

Dave! · 26-09-2005 8:15pm

Yeah, gotta love Orwell-heads tryin to seem tough, lol

Gick · 26-09-2005 8:31pm

they're havin a war with Perrystown at the moment,tryin to out-schmad each other..throw some of them into Ballymun,see how they cope

Hal1 · 26-09-2005 8:37pm

Ok, so tallaght might have matured and grown in recent years regarding, infrastructure, business, hospitals and hotels, but the name the place has still lingers on like in alot of other areas too. Alot of this imo opinion comes down to people living there (and I am not just having a rant at tallaght, other areas too, but its tallaght this time round

) Lets just hope future generations will learn to better themselves and not resort themselves to violence and other criminal activities made in these disadvantaged areas.

Gick · 26-09-2005 8:49pm

nah future generations of areas like Jobstown won't be any better than previous,you hardly think the sons of knackers will be geniuses do you

Haha Tallabans, I like it!

Gick · 28-09-2005 3:08pm

didn't think the words Tallaght and best would ever exist in the same sentence

Giblet · 28-09-2005 3:58pm

And why is that? I'm from Tallaght, are you going to start stereotyping me now? Idiots.

super_furry · 28-09-2005 4:06pm

It's just one troll really - this 'Gick' plank seems to be trying (and failing miserably) to create a middle-class snob persona for himself. The fact that he can barely string two coherent words together kind of defeats the purpose though. I predict a swift banning.

Gick · 28-09-2005 4:11pm

okay,your calling me a plank,yet you wrote ''without kind of''surely you meant to say I can't ''string two coherent words together'' without making a mistake?but then again you are from Tallaght so maybe you're just an idiot,and as for me TRYING to create a MIDDLE-class persona,I live in a big house in Terenure and my shoes probably cost more than your whole wardrobe,so I don't need to try,I'm upper class and you're jealous *edit-that guy's changed his post now,but he had made a stupid mistake in his grammar while slagging me for my vocab,oh these Tallabans

chern0byl · 28-09-2005 4:20pm

Not from Tallaght myself, but have lived there for a few years now. Even in that short time it has improved slightly. Lots of development etc. There are certainly areas which are rough..extremely rough.

I live in Deselby which is very quite but we are right against Kiltalown which is not a "no go" area but does have huge problems.

Tallaght will always have rough areas and an even rougher reputation.

Your trolling is terrible and what is with all the pointless punctuation. There is no ruling class in Ireland, so there isn't really an upper-class either. No-one is jealous of your blatant idiocy. Of course it's to be expected from someone who regards "wardrobe" as an important issue in society. I think Paris Hilton has the same mind set. What's your lineage or career that makes you think you're upperclass!?

Gick · 28-09-2005 5:17pm

Well I'm a pupil who gets good grades and I live in a big house in a nice area and am loaded with money,wardrobe's are important,If I went out around here wearing a burberry cap and a tracksuit and cheap jewellery I would get insulted no-end

Giblet · 28-09-2005 5:24pm

I guess you don't own the house, or have a job. So you're not independant and you don't really contribute to society. How does this make you upper class? Good grades are respectable though, so continue on, maybe you will learn a bit more about your surroundings aswell. I myself have a 4.0 GPA (95% avg) on my course so I respect people who have worked or work as hard as I do. To stereotype people from Tallaght is ridiculous as I'm a student of Tallaght I.T (my first choice, they follow the course structure I prefer) and know lots of people who well educated despite of their backgrounds. I moved away from Tallaght a long time ago but I don't hold any resent for anyone there even though I didn't really like it there.

Gick · 28-09-2005 7:50pm

Living in an upper class area and living an upper class lifestyle=upper class.Just because you say I'm not changes nothing,can't blame you for not liking Tallaght though
