WTF!?!?!

I'm from Cork City. The city itself has 125,000 people and if you include the suburbs there is close to 300,000 people. Cork is far from a little town, it is a city. Dublin is bigger alright but I Cork is way bigger than the likes of Portlaoise, Killarney, Athlone, etc.

Whinging about Dublin whilst having no qualms taking advantage of education or employment opportunities in Dublin. There are plenty of places I dislike, unlike certain turf chewing brethern I'd never even contemplate living in any of them .

Being from Cork.

Talking about Cork, even if no one else is.

Thinking everything goes back to something about Cork.

Being paranoid about whether everyone else thinks Cork is brilliant.

Being defensive about Cork because they suspect that not everyone else thinks that.

RTE.

Tayto Crisps, a synonym for crisps.

The Farmer's Journal.

Hang sangwiches.

Mundy, playing Galway Girl at every party.

Donal Og O Baelach

Don't forget - ye were all culchies once. This nations progress was fuelled by turf pulled out of the bogs by ye're fathers, and ye're fathers fathers. It's proud traditions and lore were invented at a thousand cottage hearths. I for one am proud to be what ye call a "culchie"; and in answer to your question - I like porridge, mart day, and Desirae Spencer.
