Not sure if this was a fake or not, but if that kid did kick the ball at the fella on the bike then yer man should have punched the head off him, and the auld wan too if she stuck her mush in.

I reckon it may be a fake as the mother reacted amazingly quickly so either it's a fake or she was looking out the window and saw the kid kicking the ball at the cyclist? if real then the kid should have got his head kicked in, hate scumbag kids who think they can get away with anything just cos they're kids :mad:

The Arklow accent is absolutely awful. I've lived here a few years now and I still find it hard to understand someone with a thick Aaarkla accent.
Makes them sound like their shoe size is larger than their I.Q. (which if you've ever been here and talked to many of the locals you soon realise is not very far from the truth).

Belfast in particular or any strong Nordie accent I find ugly as hell and an assault on my ears.

D4-pretentious and affected.

Geordie-makes them sound thick. Cheryl Cole *shudder*

Pretty sure it's real. A friend of mine lives down the road from that house and said they're all pure cnuts.


But yeah I do hate the Cork accent the most.

Have you the real Dub accent or the fake D4 accent? When you say the Cork accent I assume you mean the city accent. What's a smelly accent?

In Dublin, general skanger accents are awful.
In Ireland, any accent is disgusting except for a non-skanger Dublin accent; sorry people but you all sound like pigs.
Outside of Ireland, the Spanish accent, Brazilian accent, Welsh accent, various English accents, Eastern European accents, Italian accent, are all horrible. The worst of all is probably a Northern Irish accent. Foul.

Oink oink! :rolleyes: seriously, generalising much? where do you come from and what's your accent that you can be so insulting to the entire country except for those you judge to speak in a "non-skanger Dublin accent"??

What is that anyway? some loike D4 accent that's totally sham? :rolleyes:

I'm from Tramore originally (pretty neutral with a touch of Waterford and you'd be hard pressed to tell where I'm from if you didn't know me) so I can assure you I don't "sound like a pig" tyvm.

I really can't stand most Dublin accents. I think that's about it.

I feel my Cork accent has gotten stronger over the past few years. No idea why. I don't know whether to be happy or sad over it.

Be happy:)

The Liverpool accent is pretty sh1t.

And Puerto Rican too. Take Rosie Perez for example (White Men Can't Jump), now that's a fcuked up accent.

I hate any accent with a tool speaking it. But I was watching come dine with me the other night and I found myself detesting English accents. I have never minded them up to then, but something inside me snapped after seeing that show.

Offaly. Sounds like someone taking the piss out of talking.

I have many friends in Wexford and i like the place. But god some of the accents down there are atrocious, like some people there attempt to talk through their nose.

That's not pure Derry, that's fake LA mixed with Derry.

Her accent has improved with the fake LA, when it was just pure Derry it really was cringeworthy.

Worst accents ever have got to be the Birmingham/Black Country, London & Yorkshire accent.

I don't really mind any Irish accents, except the fake American tinged D4 one.

I think it's because it's very distinct and also a bit nosy. I actually love cork accents i can't understand why they get slagged of so much.

I really don't like any posh Irish accent, particularly the D4 one. I find posh culchie accents are very similar to D4 accents, just with a bit of a different intonation.

For the people who say all Dubs sound like scumbags, I think that's a bit unfair. I have a West Dublin accent, very similar to the inner-city accent, but I'm pretty well spoken.

This thread actually reminds me of something a friend of mine, who is a linguist, said: "There's no such thing as a bad accent!"

I have a really sh1t Dublin accent where ya wouldn't know where the feck i'm from. I really like the D4 accent though...is that weird?
