Do knackers know they are knackers?

donfers

I was on the bus today and there were a couple of knackers at the back. Between their mobile phones blaring out dance tunes and their dodgy accents I could just about hear them saying "Do you know him, he is a right knacker "(Juno hem, hays a roide nakur).

I had a quick giggle to myself and shook my head wandering if they were aware that they too were knackers. I considered going politely over to them and explaining the whole concept of irony (I hoped they had notebooks with them) but then the bus came to my stop.

As I left the bus to make my way to claim my job seekers allowance I caught my reflection in the window, hooped ear-rings, a five year old o'neills shell tracksuit, a crewcut and a permanent angry look on my face and worst of all, white socks pulled up outside of the tracksuit!!!!! :eek::eek::eek:

Could I too be a knacker????

The hooped ear-ring thing just makes me a bit camp/transvestite/transexual wannabe...I can live with that but a knacker aaaarrrrrggghhhhhhh!!!


But enough about me, do knackers know they are knackers??

Fago!

Yes they do do don't.

Nope. Knackerism is something you can only see in other people. Nobody likes to look down on themselves with smugness and disgust.

If a tree falls in the woods and nobody's around to see it, do the other trees laugh?

I often wondered why they put their socks over their trousers, where didi this originate from? Do they think the look like cyclists or something. This combined with runners and tracksuits they must think they're elite athletes

If a knacker falls in the woods, and nobody is around, then does the knacker make any sound?

Good sir if we did not support our finest engineers and latest technologies, we would not have the steam tractor, the spinning jenny, or child labor factories to produce shower curtains, nor would we have convenient hand cranked showers!

A lack of foresight is your limitation sir.

Do middle class laptop weilding career-getters know they are impotent, uniformed slaves conditioned from the day of their birth to become nothing more than cogs in the system? Probably not, and I'd say they are about as self-aware as your average knacker.

why so serious?

Most knackers and chavs are gangster wannabes, just look at there bebo and facebook profiles, nothing but "2pac" and "Biggie" quotes.

The Knacker race is held every hour on the north side of the city where the young contenders and potential inmates of mountjoy, race away from security guards or if in an senior race the Gardai, affectionaltely know as 'da fooking pigsa'

Competitors preferably dress in tracksuits and runners for comfort, tuck their socks into their shoes for safety reasons. A shaved head or crew cut is usually worn for aerodynamic purposes.

The competitor will eventually be caught by the pursuers and will be rewarded by repeative strikes of a baton. There are no winners, the biggest loser is society.

a knacker to me isnt the way someone speaks, their accent or anything like that. Its more their nature. You can have whatever accent and still be the scum of the earth.. you would think the irish would have recognised this by now....

Knackerism isnt restricted to the working class areas or people on buses playing music.

I'd say all the money and quality of life means they don't care. They certainly commit less crime and assault less people, and burden the state less.

Knacker =/= Real person

seriously though, the statistical likelihood is that at least one person who has posted on here is a knacker or has had sexual congress with one

Is it? Please explain.


Knacker:

1) A person who disposes of dead or unwanted animals. (COD) The person who collects dead and diseased animals from farms in order to salvage any products of value (eg, hides and skins, meat for pet food) and dispose of the remains, usually to a renderer.

2) One who makes knickknacks, toys, etc; One of two or more pieces of bone or wood held loosely between the fingers, and struck together by moving the hand

3) Someone who buys old buildings or ships and breaks them up to recover the materials in them.

Not all travellers are knackers, and not all knackers are travellers. A knacker was a job once upon a time. I am not sure how popular that trade is now. I would hazard a guess it is all but gone.
