Teenage nancy boys

bitemybanger · 07-07-2008 7:34pm #1

Was in Dublin(outside Jervis SC) today and couldnt help noticing a gand of 6-8 young lads between 13 and 16 sporting the stupidest looking hair i had ever seen, long and straight at the back, spiked at the top, brushed to one side and flat on the front with red streaks goin at all sorts of angles.
To add insult to injury, theese guys were wearing those gay sweat bottoms that are too short and elasticated at the bottom and up around thier ankles,
I mean WTF, are the fellas gettin worse than the girls for personal appearence??
I think in about 10 or so years they will look back at photos with a red face saying "what was i thinkin:o"

truecrippler · 07-07-2008 7:36pm

I can't comprehend these people neither.
They also think they're really hard, have they ever looked at themselves?
Vain metro sexual "hardmen".... eugh never heard of one.

Goths. Punks. Emo kids. New Romantics. Hippies. Mullets. Afros.
This is nothing new. The trend may have changed but young people dressing stupidly and thinking that they are cool is nothing new.
At least we can laugh now we have our straight back and sides and nice pair of brown slacks.
I really miss my Slayer tee-shirts pink hair and piercings though.

If this is your first time to see that you don't get out much!

tribulus · 07-07-2008 7:39pm

Standard Henry St. posse tbh.

They're SpiceBoys, always a solid form of visual entertainment when they come into the shop.

And so will us children of the 80's when we look back on our x-works jeans and elipse shirts.

And the 70's children

... and the 60's ...

Every generation has some trend thats cringeworthy at a later date. This is theirs.

Kiera · 07-07-2008 7:40pm

Ah leave them alone. I bet you wore embarrassing clothes when you were younger!

Showing your age me thinks!

You should see some of the muppets around cork. I saw this fat kid in town at the weekend with long hair at the back, stupid red dyed hair tattoos on the side and the the top of his head looked like roadkill.
WTF do these **** ask for when they go to get a haircut?

Rb · 07-07-2008 7:43pm

It's the new look for knackers in Dublin.
Last year it was blonde hair and sparkly studded earrings with stripey tops and sweat pants tucked into their socks so it's only a slight variation.

brick tamland · 07-07-2008 7:45pm

you just dont know whats cool:p:p:p

thing is in times gone past trends were universally accepted. i dunno what fúckin tv show or kooks record these fúckwits got a hold of that told them this was cool....

Yeah but this trend is cringeworthy now!

Absolutely devoid of any individuality. I see them all the time and they all look identical...Ive also noticed that they all walk around now together in groups with earphones in their ears.

Is this some sort of covert communication device on which they share fashion tips or can they simply not even stand each others company they are so dull and pathetic?

Atm, I'm sporting blood red hair, numerous piercings and a Dillinger Escape Plan t-shirt. One of the few pleasures of not having a job.

Round up the mob to beat up the nancy boys?

Not much different than people in the 80's/90's going around with their ghettoblaster on their shoulders

Yeah its cringeworthy for an older crowd, not the same crowd wearing the style.

Same as the rave gear would have been cringeworthy (maybe) to older siblings when the 80's crowd were wearing then.

Don't think it can exactly be described as camp!

I was one of those.
We listened to Pearl Jam and Soundgarden and it was great.
Then some dick would come along and try to put on some dance music radio station and I'd put out a cigarette in his eye and push him into the Liffey.*
Good times and I still dress the same and listen to the same type of music.

*Actual violence may not have occured.

KBarry · 07-07-2008 9:26pm

I thought mullets were cool when I was their age. They'll grow out of it.

Princess Consuela Bananahammock · 07-07-2008 9:34pm

Jaysus, you;re begininning to sound like a mierablle bunch of Victor Meldew type fvcks.
"In my day we didn't wear our hair long. We had it short. And we were whipped if it touched the collar by the locla priest. And we're bettter for it!!"

Thank fvck for when the day comes that Ireland renounces it's freedom and gives into some sort of coded practice that makes short hair mandatory. And everything else. Fvck, look at the time. 1984 already. I'm outta here.

They're doing that on purpose and would be delighted to know you have noticed it. I know for a fact if you go up and tell them they look like camp nancy boys they will give you a fiver.

Bingo. Go back far enough and i imagine all of us will think "****, i used to look like a plank".

Except me.

I live on the cutting edge of fashion.

kowloon · 07-07-2008 10:06pm

:pac:Thank fook I was never fashionable.

phenomenon · 07-07-2008 10:25pm

They couldn't look any worse than those grunger/goth pseudo-depressed, attention seeking muppets that wear black hoodies and leather trench coats on the hottest day of the year. Try not to smudge your make-up kids. Wouldn't want to look silly now

Feelgood · 07-07-2008 10:28pm

Man I love this thread, quite possibly the best thread in the world.....

dr.bollocko · 07-07-2008 10:32pm

My leather trenchcoat still fits!
Anyone with a Cure tee-shirt pm me. I will swap for two pairs of pop socks and a Jason Donavan cassette.

Ah yea they look like Gob****es but they aren't harming anyone.

Paris , Milan , London ..... Navan!!

It was skin tight jeans, slayer t-shirts and pony tails in my day, im sure the boring crew at that time thought we were all a bunch of nancy boys too!! F**k'em!!

+1...unless of course Navan (or insert any other blade 3 back and sides Irish town here) is now an influential centre of self expression and anti-conventionalism.

BraziliaNZ · 08-07-2008 1:24am

I wonder what tourists think when they see these little f*ggots, is it unique to Ireland? I was hoping it would be over by now as it was going on 1.5 years ago last time I was in Dublin. Feckin' Xworkx jeans etc. weren't that bad come on, at least we didn't gay up our hair like Ziggy Stardust. It wouldn't be quite as bad if their fashion stood for something like punks or mods but this carry-on is just the gayest thing I've ever seen, AND the so called hard little kids dress like this. Do they still wear white converse? I remember if you wore converse around the tough kids years ago you'd be called a fag. God.

Sully · 08-07-2008 1:25am

Down here its changed, very quicly, from the side of your hair being cut in streaks to the top half of your hair being bleached.

Btw, whats with the weird earings? You know, the ones that form a hole in your earlobe..

Well the most irritating aspect of it all is the fact that these little troglodytes have notions above themselves. They use GHDs ffs. Faces like smashed crabs every one of em. I think i prefered scummers when they had shaved heads tbh. Get back in your box ya dirty corn-beef faced fooks.

doonothing · 08-07-2008 2:53am

I know, in work the other day, a group came in... They started fixing each other's hair.
Imagine transporting them back two years and watching their past-selves beating the unholy crap out of them for being such tools.

Xavi6 · 08-07-2008 3:03am

I blame JD Sports. Ever since that chav shop came to Mary St. knackers have taken up residence in there and come out sporting the latest Fred Parry, Lacoste and Sergio Taccini polo shirts and cotton bottoms that are two sizes too small for them. The hair cut is just the crowning glory.

Skangers the lot of them.

anonymous_joe · 08-07-2008 3:04am

The technical term is gacker.

ok I found this on google, apparently the fad is over according to the "Dublin Spicers" - "SO DERS NO MORE SPICER TING NE MORE OK NE1 HU STILL IS IS JUST GAY NOW N OUTA FASHION!!!! "

KTRIC · 08-07-2008 7:55am

That sort of carry on was very fashionable recently (2007 and first half of 2008) in Germany amongst the young Turkish lads. They looked even worse than the Irish lads to be honest.

To be honest I haven't seen one in the past month :rolleyes:
