    Ross O Carroll Kelly is a legend

    Loud, pretentious with a fake accent, wearing sunglasses 24 hrs a day and are normally full of sh*t.

    I always thought The Sunday Independent was a bogger paper?

    Not for decades, thankfully. It's far too trashy for the conservative big farmers and shopkeepers who would have purchased it until Tony O'Reilly too over. Just look at The Sunday Independent lineup: Terry Keane, a more fake person is hard to conceive or, Dudley Edwards, Harris, Myers, Cruise O'Brien, and a huge array of insignificant people who write really, really, really trashy superficial journalism. Made for the D4 brigade, then.

    i walked past 2 having a conversation on south anne st, i burst out laughing their accents were that exaggerated. the worst i had ever heard and ive been to my fair share of rugby matches, general d4 habitats!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 3,077 ✭✭✭Rebelheart


    Seriously, has any linguist done research on where they got that accent? Is it a recent affectation or have they spoken English like that there since the 16th century or something?

    You're an impostor. A true D4 would say "Ross O'Carroll-Kelly is a ledge."


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,905 ✭✭✭✭Handsome Bob


    On a woman, you've got the frazzled hair.....the orange skin........the constant sour face......the skinny jeans/leggings.....always has starbucks coffee in hand.......and of course, the obligatory UCD student card.

    On a man, you've got an air of entitlement........the needlessly loud conversations and laugh.......the rugger jersey.......carries his wallet and car keys in his hand......and of course, the obligatory UCD student card.

    D4's for all their education are usually pig ignorant labour voting champagne sipping 'snobs'.

    Labour?! Only if they're trying to rough it with the commoners!

    You see, I'm old school D4 so the transition must have passed me by, probably appeals to the wannabes or the noveau:D its a big problems around here but its easy to spot the new arrivals with their over sized 4 X4 and mortgages:pac::pac::pac:

    D4's voting Labour? Yeah, and I'm a fcuking millionaire. ;)

    they are not that bad, some people on here seem to have a very high opinion of themselves.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 264 ✭✭sron


    Heard a girl on the 46A the other day who would mention some insignificant problem to her friend, let out a moan and say "Stress of my life!".
    It's those odd turns of phrases that give them away.

    Shallow, superficial, rootless people who are the backbone of the readership of The Sunday Independent. Not much substance at all to them.

    Not the sort of people you'd find at a trad seisiún, or having down-to-earth chats about real things and real characters in real pubs, or keeping in touch with family in rural Ireland, or interested in the GAA or generally part of Irish Ireland.

    Yes, the true Jackeens.
    What's all this talk of 'real' things about? Have you been getting stuck into some existential philosophy recently?

    Well she is from D4 (ish). What do you expect?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,178 ✭✭✭_Bella_


    I was wondering as I have been called a D4. I admit I do go to a private school and yes I do intend to go to UCD (not to do an arts degree) but I don't wear fake tan, I do like rugby but I actuallly do understand the game, I don't spend an hour trying to mess up my hair!

    That's all right because all the D4s go to Smurfits. :p

    people from private education, who as a result, have transcended the need to limit themselves to the standard turn of phrases and given their elite status and segregation from the proles have developed many terms and saying that the general public fear them... and as Yoda says... fear leads to anger...anger leads to hate... hate leads to the... NORTHSIDE


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 5,671 ✭✭✭BraziliaNZ


    in fairness, these D4 types seem to exist here in Clontarf too, and probably in other pockets of the northside. Westwood gym, where I go, has a good few of them, they all have the same messy barnet and wear some kind of Canterbury gear and talk about Belvo.

    I'm almost entirely sure they're bred in a lab in UCD.

    As long as you maintain reasonable distance they can be quite nice to look at, but get close and all illusions are shattered. Still, they can be fun to listen to when I manage to get out of bed and into the library.

    (Yes mr. funnyman (you know who you are) it does say Blackrock in my location, and yes, I did say I go to UCD. In fact I did arts a few years ago no less. Any other questions... hmm? HMM?)
