Skangers fiddling with themselves

    I had heard about this trend for want of a better word but thought it might have passed the Irish skanger by. But no, before my very eyeballs yesterday this young fella walked past with his hands, right up above the wrists, stuck down his trackie bottoms. Then later at the bus stop another young lad, in full view of myself, obligatory little old lady and a bunch of his mates, stood there RUMMAGING for a full 10 minutes. I have some questions.

    For those of you in the know, are the hands actually going underneath the jocks?

    If I walked down the street with my hands stuck up my skirt having a good oul fiddle, would I get away with it?

    Is it supposed to mean something?

    Do skangers know they are skangers?

    Also possibly, should I just not look and mind my own business?

    I've been wondering this too. It's such a bleedin bizarre 'trend' much like the mullets and the tracksuits tucked into the socks. What the hell is up with it?

    Its probably another failed attempt at the "hard" look they all seem to want to achieve. "**** you, i'll scratch my sack if i want to"

    What is the world coming to..

    I for one would applaud you for doing this.

    It's all about not giving a sh1te what anyone thinks.

    They've been doing this for a long time.

    so long as your hand is outside the trouser area, grab away to your hearts content imo. Inside the trousers, pocket or otherwise.. that's a bit dodgy and best left to bedrooms, libraries or police stations

    that thing you did with your hands was str8 up gangsta yo

    I propose giving them scratching sticks-lets genteelise the practise to make it acceptable. Rather like the way blowing your nose into a hanky is much more dignified than applying a diget to a nostril and expelling the contents of one's head on the ground at a busstop.

    Try having a classroom full of them in front of you. Trouser rummagers.

    I'm tempted to get a big tongs and a packet of baby wipes someday and distribute them before class starts.

    The ultimate question right there.

    So long as your not a bloke you will.

    As someone who lived in town all my life, i can tell you this has been going on with teens around here as long as i remember. Was never into myself because my mother brought me up with a sense of respect and hygine.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,556 ✭✭✭✭Sir Digby Chicken Caesar


    you know the hand is the filthiest part of the human body typically? .. if you're worrieda bout hygeine you should be wearing gloves the whole time.. and changing them every half hour or so

    Love it :D

    seriously though, what are they doing down there?

    Is it squishing the goods? Or stroking? Or just scrunching it all up? Are they expecting to be kneed at any given moment?

    I think I prefered when they thought it was "gay" to so much as stand too close to each other.

    Yeah but if you'll excuse the pun, it's a different ball game.

    Whats worse is seeing them do it and then seeing them bite their nails or something!

    wha, you expect your gf to suck and lick it but you won't do it yourself?

    men, always with the double standards

    Maybe someone could start putting radioactive materials on the door handles of their favourite establishments and the little twats can sterilize themselves.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,220 ✭✭✭✭biko


    Take the opportunity when they're kinda defenceless and give them an almighty kick, through hands and all, in the groin.

    Serious question here for you Mordeth, Do you genuinly think it's ok for a man to play with his balls for ten minutes and then to clean his teeth with his fingernails? Do you honestly find nothing wrong with that?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,556 ✭✭✭✭Sir Digby Chicken Caesar


    it's not something I'd do myself, but only because I know how much my balls sweat. If I were blessed with a dryer scrotum, then yes.. maybe I would.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,060 ✭✭✭Anto McC


    I never heard of a man whose balls don't sweat.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,556 ✭✭✭✭Sir Digby Chicken Caesar


    right, but most men don't have to walk around with seperate bounty sheets for each testicle stuffed into their underpants.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,688 ✭✭✭Nailz


    "Sounds comfortable" you say?!? I wouldn't want people looking at me having a fiddle with the good oul' bollox!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,556 ✭✭✭✭Sir Digby Chicken Caesar


    it actually is, took a little while to get used to it but it really cuts down on jock rash .. and all that happens if someone tries to wedgie you is a smooth sensation of silk.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,799 ✭✭✭Tha Gopher


    Hands up who has never had a horn in work or on a bus that makes any type of walking that doesnt resemble Quasimodo impossible.

    Exactly.


    Now shurrup with yer bashin......


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,556 ✭✭✭✭Sir Digby Chicken Caesar


    actually, seeing as this thread is kinda moving off into it's own new direction anyway

    does anyone else find they are more prone to erections on the bus when they are really tired? never happens to me except when I got fug all sleep the night before, in which case the slightest bit of gravel on the road sends me sky high.

    it's probably to keep you awake and alert. *turns pensive* but why does it only happen at the end of the journey when you have to get up?

    Dunno why but on the Cavan to Dublin bus i always get a ragin horn around Navan. It doesnt matter if the women sitting beside me/out the window of the bus are exclusively either 19 year old blondes with tits bigger than my head, or old grannys with blue rinse. It has NOTHING to do with the view- ive been on the bus alone and got the same ive got when there are 3 18 year olds infront. Theres just something in the air in Navan :D Most men there must be on the sickie, making totally valid claims relating to spine curveture :eek:

    Fine ... but the problem isn't hands up, it's hands down ... in public, at least! God knows, I'm no advocate of sleeping with hands outside the clothes, but polishing the family jewelry on a public street is a bit much ...

    Hardly newsworthy considering we see the exact same threads brought up on a weekly basis at times.

    Defo a more probable explanation! :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 24,878 ✭✭✭✭arybvtcw0eolkf


    I'm glad this topic was brought up.

    I find it absolutely revolting looking at teenage lads, and sometimes older holding their bollox like this.

    I've a 15yr old son, whose arms' I'm break if I seen him do that.

    I mean, what in the name of sweet baby Jesus do they think their doing. Looking like two year old's playing with their willies.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,960 ✭✭✭DarkJager


    Thought the front of the pants is where they keep knives and sawn off shotguns when they're carrying them. Other than that its probably Jacintas crabs....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,831 ✭✭✭Slow Motion


    Could be worse, it could turn into a case of "you scratch my sack and I'll scratch yours" :D

    "Is that crabs or are you just happy to see me" doesn't quite have the same ring to it...

    Pretty off putting alright (just think how many such hands may have held any of the money you have in your wallet/purse) *searches for a vomit smilie but alas there are none!* but I have heard of worse:
    a lad out in public, his GF in front of him (presumable his GF anyway) & "his lad" down the back of her trackies. Some people have no sense of shame...:(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,575 ✭✭✭✭FlutterinBantam


    "Sense of shame"... "skanger"... not in the same thread please.
