Stretch Limo's = Skangers

intheknow

Would you get into a stretch limo ? I see them all the time. Most of the time someone is hanging out the window shouting "Me Bollix"...and thats just the women ! Stylish my arse. I would put them up there with shiny tracksuit wearers ( and pyjamas) and the great smell of brut ! I would rather walk....End of Rant !!:mad:

Stretch limos are so early 90's. Stretch hummers are the new fusheezie or some such.

/edit: iirc there's only one stretch hummer in Ireland.

I think they are very tacky.

They are Skangery.

They're usually full of children in my experience, in the 8-12 age bracket.

I saw a pink stretch limo on the N2 exit of the M50 yesterday *shudder*.

So late-70's you mean?

Personally I don't like the idea of sharing cramped quarters with a bunch of yobs. However I guess for these people growing up on council estates with 5 to a bedroom as they do, it's just like being at home.

Dooom

Well yeah, but Ireland didn't really catch on to it for a while.

No These are Skanger Limos...................

totally agree, having worked in a nightclub my experience was that it was usually knackers on hen nights using these vehicles. the issue here is that poor people have a crazy idea of how money is spent by rich people take a 50 cent video as an example the rapper is drowntureed in gold, surrounded by leather bound books and driving fast cars. i doubt the man can barely read let alone critique literature. poor peoples perceptiom of wealth is the reason why they waste money on material goods as soon as they get any on stupid things like stretch limos

Yes and its in my pants.

I have seen these limos going around. Usually filled with drunk skangers thinking they are great being about to shout stuff out of a moving limo. Little do they know, you can do the same in a car, Limo's don't have any sort of special powers.

Cake Fiend

As above, scangers like limos for the same reason they all wear €100+ runners. Because they have a warped sense of material value.

I'd like to see one where the driver has tried to go round a 90 degree bend on a single-track road. Has anyone ever witnessed this phenomenon?

I'd like to see the one where they try to do it on the side of a cliff, roll off and explode. But that's just my warped sense of Internet humour.

Did by any chance you call the OP a Bollix earlier?

I'd get in/use one and I'm not a skanger.

Hmm.. did I just ruin the thread?

Seconded.

When I see someone hanging out of one I just laugh at the skanger that thinks they are important/that people care.

I saw the exact same one (probably) in Raheny a couple o nights ago. I entertained the idea of hiring one for all my straight male friends for a laugh

I like to humour them and shout and wave back. Make a skanger feel important. Even if it's for just one day

monkey junkie

As others have said, they are for scumbags, foolishly thinking they can buy "class". Trying to buy class by renting a pink limo with Playboy logos on it is totally retarded.

The remind me of some deluded skanger I once heard saying, "I've got class, I drive a Hyundai Coupe."

Ay Cee

Had a similar conversation the other day. I remember being younger when you might see a limo a year and think "wow, I wonder whos' in that" now it's like "who does that feckin' eegit think he is".

As for ""I've got class, I drive a Hyundai Coupe." -

Not exactly a boast now is it? Let's recap on the list of design classics from Korea.... Hmmmm..... De militarised zone?.........ehhhhhh......hmmmmm. Nope.

Stretch limos. Oh God. Fat laydeeees with belly tops, orange makeup an cellulite of the face. Looking like that, one would suppose that traveling in a pink limo would not be the best way to keep a lower profile.

What's the big deal about mostly Kids having fun in limos, there's no problem in people having mainly harmless fun. Live and let live.

As for all the class discrimination crap, well it reflects poorly on the posters and without even drilling down into the specifics.

Who gives a ****? If the opportunity to get in one ever arises then walk. While your friends have fun you can be safe in the knowledge that your not a skanger, just abit of a knob.

Putting a plural in an apostrophe in a thread title? SKANNGGGEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Oooooooooooooooold thread.

And just to provide something odd, 89 million babies have been born since the last post on this thread.

Judging by the responses here, now is probably not the best time to try and market my Stretch Lada Samara.

The skanger has evolved a lot lately, they dress like gays, have sonic the hedgehog hairstyles and tuck their trousers into their socks? And some even use straighteners, these are known as 'the pretty boys', they wear a lot of designer clothes too? Whats with that?

I don't think much of stretch limos in Ireland, however when I was in NY there was literally hundreds to be seen per day and I often wondered who was in them (given that it's manhattan). Even got a stretch back to JFK since it worked out pretty cheap.

zuutroy

Plus I posted here 10 mins after the guy who dug it up and my post disappeared

They work in trades so up until now have had a bit of cash to be splashing on themselves given they all still live with the ma and don't have any expenses
