artanevilla

You're the one starting the threads!

Maybe you should go for a lie down? Have a nice cup of tea?

What about culchies living in Dublin such as myself?

Pointless thread is pointless.

There should be a third option for "Dundalk". Voting "outside Dublin" isn't adequate enough to express the sheer joy one feels when letting the world know you are a Dundalkonian.

It's more than just a place. It's a state of mind. Come jump on Pighead's back and we shall experience Dundalk together.

I'd Rather fuck Sand then be a Dundalkonian

College in Dublin, but from Wexford and come back here a lot of weekends (and probably all holidays)

There's no omnipresent option. :mad:

Don't really think you're the type of person we want in our town anyway. Vulgarity may be cool in Dublin but in Dundalk we pride ourselves in expressing ourselves with eloquence and good manners.

How does one go about spoiling a vote in a stupid boards poll?

Answers on a postcard please.....

Are these 2 not the same? I've half convinced myself that they're not now.

I think you'll find that some of the most fervent anti-jackeen sentiment comes from bog-natives unwillingly resident in the capital; such is the plight of the displaced countryman, exiled up to Dublin to join the "service" or to further their new non-farming career in some other way; condemned to live out middle-youth in the bed-sits and drinking dens of Ranelagh town, forced into uneasy alliance with the scumbags, who are themselves exiles in their own metropolis. Such is the sad plight of the latter farming generations; their ancestors swallowed, digested and shat out the very soil till it bore crop that they may feed the little mouths of Eireann, but in vain it all was.

Irish Halo

In 2006 1,661,185 people lived in the greater Dublin area out of a total Irish population of 4,239,848 i.e about 39%. All things being equal this is the proportion of boards users that are from greater Dublin.

This is offset by at least two things:
1) 33% of the country is not covered by broadband (yes I know dial up exists)
2) Posters not living in Ireland or being Irish

Which I'm going to hazard a guess may cancel each other out, maybe ....

Kerry/Cork. So definitely not Dublin!

I hate wannabe Dubs.

You live in fcuking BRAY!! It's north Wickow not south Dublin you fcuking tosser.

D-A-V-E

i dont see how this thread can go anywhere, its pure logic..1 million living in dublin, 3.5 million outside dublin so the end result (if everyone votes) should be around 28.5% to 71.5%.

i mean, what are the odds EVERYONE will be from dublin on this?!

dublin should be the overwhelming minority

that greater dublin included wicklow, kildare,louth meath and a couple more, according to the last census (2006) dublin city and county had a population of 1,187,176 as the heading said its only dublin..not half of leinster so ratio is around 28.5% to 71.5%

There are no other cities in Ireland


Dublin has 1/3 of the population so it's no wonder most of the threads are about the capital.

I was born in Dublin, but have since moved to just outside. But i still consider my self to be nothing other than a dub

Outside Dublin, and happy about it.:cool:
In saying that though I do like going to Dublin for matches, Christmas shopping, Toys 4 Big Boys etc.

Think you'll find the % of people who live in/outside dublin to be, ehh... a fcucking hundred percent, op.

You either live IN Dublin, or OUTSIDE of Dublin. Pretty simple tbh.

How many people here are named David, OR!!! ... aren't named David?

Its a step down from a Drogheda - and if to prove it, is infected/cursed with two FF TD's.

Can't you see it?! ^ Being a bit long winded, the OP decided to call it the 'Pot / Kettle' option.

Is the '' white Hoss ''inn still in Dundalk ...or was that Drogheda ?:pac:

What's with all the Dundalk-hating?

All us Dundalkonians have met, and a large amount of you have gone onto our blacklist!

Duggy747

I'm a potato munching bogger who lives outside the Republic Of Dublin where only the richest of farmers can afford one of these things you call "The Internets"

I've no affiliation with farming which concludes I live in the internet

Though the fashion that people wear nowadays in the cities I find hilarious, like a bastard hybrid of the 80's and GHD. Trying too hard to stand out.

The thread is flawed. It is asking if you are a jackeen or a dub by asking where you live. Its a bad way of compareing. It would be easier to say where were you BORN

In Dublin ( Hence a jackeen)
Outside Dublin ( Hence a culchie)

More dubs now live in cavan than cavan people i would say! But using the thread voteing they would be considered culchies! The culchies in my village told me i would never be one of them which by my logic is fine! You would need to see the person that said this to realise :eek:
