    Right, well I did my usual walk round the park this lunchtime.... recently they have added some nice streetlighting to make the park safer in the evenings etc... Last week I saw 2 guys painting all the lights a nice clean white colour... Then today as I walk past them I notice almost every single lamppost now has *insert skanger bítch name here* LUVS *insert skanger bloke name here* with all these fúcking lovehearts all over the place... Do these people walk around the place with big thick black markers ready to deface anything new that or that might actually look nice. There must be over 30 lights now littered with some skangerglyphics... Jasus I'd love to catch them and give em a hiding, fúcking retards....

    Well at least these people seem to have some love in their hearts. From what Pighead can see you're heart is drenched in hate.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 603 ✭✭✭shatners basoon


    Just be happy they're not declaring they're love by bottling you!
    But yes they're simple idiotic folk and we all hate them.

    Especially when you're listening to music and whistling whilst walking down the street and one of em shouts at you "Whocha been so GAY foR?!"
    That doesn't even make sense.
    "Sorry mate, didnt quite realise it, i'll stop now"
    Fudging idiots!

    I live in a third story flat in Kimmage & had two windows broken over the weekend (By the unsocialable neighbours kids no doubt). I have double glazed windows and they holes on the outter pain look like very large pellets (I cant see them being stones) My neighbour got it worse with 5 on there two windows. Ok I rent the apartment but still.....what sort of scum bag society are we living in. :mad:

    Thin line piggy, its a thin line....

    Not to mention the fact that skanger love is a very ugly angry form of love anyway, or at least id presume so!

    There was a scanger halfwit down my way who wrote his name on a house that had just been plastered and he was caught,fined 500 quid,got his picture in the paper and got the mother of all beatings from his father.Cheered me up no end it did.

    Like that word!!

    The last week on afterhours has seen a lot of anti-skanger threads. I'm glad that other people feel the same way about these cancers on society. Do they not have anything better to do than hanging around in their dirty tracksuits defacing/stealing/destroying other peeples property?

    Yes, wonderful love they are programmed to do so they can mass-produce themselves and steal the government's money through the children's allowance.
    They's evils, I tell ya.

    If you want to study skanger trash in their natural environment, then get your cameras and come out to Leixlip, its full of them. They vandalise everything they can get their hands on, throw litter on the streets, the place is like a land fill with all the beer cans, chip bags and just basic rubbish lying everywhere. Now don't get me wrong its a lovely town full of history, but unfortunately the tracksuit wearing trash are multiplying at an unbelievable rate and have pretty much taken over the town. If your bored on a Saturday night just go down to the chipper at 3am and watch them kick the piss out of each other after they have chewed on a snack box. Why are scumbags attracted to glass ? you can always judge how scummy a place is by how much vandalism there is, and in Leixlip they have this thing about windows, they are always breaking them. As one long time resident said to me at the weekend "its a beautiful place but its full of scumbags, and I have to move away before my son hits his teens and turns into one too"

    Yea, black is a more regular colour for teh poles.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 37,214 ✭✭✭✭Dudess


    Has anyone seen that Chavs documentary presented by that reprehensible bitch Julie Burchill? She defends scumbags because they're working-class and salt-of-the-earth and middle-class people attack them etc, etc. No. It's because they're scumbags. Simple as that. Anyone familiar with the new apartments across the road from Collins Barracks in Cork? I lived there for four years and it was a lovely place to live until a whole bunch of skangers were set loose and trashed the place. Some cow who got a rent-free apartment in there decided to invite dozens and dozens of scumbags up for parties. She was in her late thirties/early forties. All her "mates" were under 16 and she gave them cans of Dutch and fags so they naturally thought she was the biz. Anyway, they destroyed the place with graffiti and rubbish. They trashed people's cars, ripped down drain pipes, climbed into gardens and on to roofs, pulled down satellite dishes, terrorised people's pets (two cats got doused in diesel and even though they didn't manage to set them alight, the poor things were so traumatised they had to be put down). And then they get stupid dumasses like Julie Burchill standing up for them!! As if they wouldn't piss in her petrol tank if they got the chance.

    Was this out in Deansgrange? Just saw all that graffiti today too. It pissed me off until I saw that someone had inventively graffitied the white line in the middle of the path near the SuperValu. Thought that was pretty original - although I'd hate to be Emma (apparently she's a fat slag)

    There should be a skanger forum at this stage.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,461 ✭✭✭Max_Damage


    What we need is to have a good few vigilantes going around and deal with this filth, because our judicial system isn't doing fcuk all as far as I can see.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,478 ✭✭✭padi89


    What gets me is eye contact.Your walking down the street and you make eye contact with someone,its usually a nod or a hello but with a skanger its "what the **** are you looking at?"

    I have actually witnessed several young hooligans whipping giant permanent markers out of otherwise empty pockets at various opportune moments. It seems they do carry them around in case a convenient situation presents itself.

    You guys all sound like you were beaten up in the playground as kids and are now spewing your anger as adults. I don't have any problem with skangers...we need them if there's a war and have to send the dregs into battle.

    I see graffiti as a pathethic attempt at territoriality.
    These idiots seem to think that they can just mark their territory like animals, and that it actually means something.

    We need to bring back the whip / cane.... 10 lashes per offense.

    I agree with this. A night in the slammer is not wnough for them, in fact for some it probably welcomed so they can boast to their mates. They would not be so quick with 10 good lasarations accross their back.

    nah...a coliseum where u could put 30 skangers in with 30 D4 types (some rugger BUGGERS to even it out). I'd pay handsomely to see that, and even bring my own popcorn and peanut M&Ms.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 589 ✭✭✭MrSinn


    This kind of thing is not unique to Dublin/Ireland
    Some people here should try going to a few countrys in Europe where nothing is safe from graffiti and vandalism,the difference here is when its defaced its left that way


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 605 ✭✭✭Crania


    What the hell is happening to this country with the unbelievabe amount of scangers. Thye are everywhere, every samll town and village in the counrty, its not just Dublin and surrounding areas. I live in a small town and the place is littered with them. Its just seems that in todays world, once a boy gets to about 12 or 13, he becomes a scanger, its just the 'cool' thing to do. What kind of a society do we live in? The discipline in this country has gone to the dogs, parents are too busy to discipline their children. I think tis only going to get worse, this country is getting more violent by the day, in 20 years the scangers will be the majority.

    Its always been that way,we just use different terms now,today its scangers,when i was growing up it was referred to as having a bad name


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51 ✭✭macfran


    I totally agree with CoolCiaran, the youth of today have no respect (having said that ) there are some lovely well mannered teenagers that I know, but last week I had an experience with a potential skanger.
    Two youths were walking by my cottage on a canal bank when one of them decides to attack by throwing a stone at my window. I was standing in my lounge and saw him throw this stone , luckily it hit the frame and the glass did not get broken.
    What is their problem?
    I live there and I am no threat to him or his family so why attack me.

    Probably the reason they didn't manage to set them alight was because the cats were doused in diesel, and diesel isn't flammable. It's not even inflammable.

    OP, replace "Skangers" with "the youth of today" and you might sound like less of a total prat.

    In my opinion, anyway, though it seems like alot of people agree with you. Am I wrong in thinking that there is a sizeable anti-"skanger" movement starting up, in Ireland, these days? /me sighs.

    We're all doomed.

    [edit]Ok, I just noticed macfran's post, ^^ and I felt the need to point out, how this is my attempt at ironic sarcasm. I mean, when I was a kid (not too long ago) we were oft accused of being out of control and reckless. Then grown-ups would tut and say, 'the youth of today, huh?'. In my mind, that is exactly what you are doing here, in your so-called-rant, however you go one step further and attach the stigma of "skangers". As if, your peers and you would never have put graffiti on a thing in ye're lives. If thats true, ye must be some of the few. Cos I know I certainly did. Oh knoes, I must be a skanger![/edit]

    Right. So I suppose i am a skangerist now is it... My use of the word skanger was used to describe someone who has no respect for anyone, their property or public areas etc etc... I could easily have used the word knackers, chavs, scobies, scumbags, howaya's etc... There is no need to analyse the exact definition of the word 'skanger'...

    Away with ye to your Vin Diesel fanclub...

    Hate skangers.

    My house mate came home from work on the 65 bus with an interesting skanger story last night.
    Told me there was a lad sitting beside him smoking herion. Not a care in the world. Just smoking it and talking away to other passengers, nobody said a thing about it.
    What the **** has this country come to? where you cant even sit on a bus without that **** going on.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 270 ✭✭Katykaboom


    Le sigh. Its not only skangers who deface piblic properties. My brother is going through his little phase of graffiti at the moment, but he actually saves his pocket money and buys spray paint. He tells me he only does it where there are designated areas. I do not buy this, I was 14 once myself. And he is not a skanger.
