    Haha. I meant, MMMMMMMMbuckko man.

    Oldest livin' junkie I'ver ever seen. Thought I saw him a while back in Spar in the village with a walking stick arguing with his mate.

    Small world or what?


    I finished school in 1996 and at that time I reckon he had about 2 years to live.Here we are in 2010 14 years later and he's still hangin on to life.He used to hang around with one of my neighbors and I remember him banging down his door one morning ,and when he didn't get an answer he took out a pen and tore a piece of a cigarette box off and wrote a note on it an posted it through the letter box.I told my neighbor later when he came home and he said that the note said "Gone to space -bucko"

    Sorry to the bloke if he reads this but one of my brothers was sayin one of his mates got a pint of orange from Ahernes and he was drinking it down the dodder while they were playin football when they were only young kids. Bucko asked for a sip an your man gave it to him said it's okay, you can finish if off. Bucko starts goin "Are you sayin I have the virus??" and starts chasin him.

    You have to take a lot of these with a pinch of salt.

    This one sounded hillarious.

    So bucko's on aston quay waiting on the 77a. when he noticed a brownie giving a guy a parking ticket in one of the bus bays.

    So bucko strolls up to the guy and asked how much the ticket was for, say it was 70 pounds, bucko suggests if he can get rid of it he would get 20 pounds. so before the driver can agree bucko takes off down aston quay after the brownie, pulls the book out off his hand and fecks it into the liffey :pac::pac:

    Then he turned and waddled off like a duck ,slanty at a 30 degree angle

    That kind of post is why people think Tallaght is a bad area. If I'm not from Tallaght, should I just stay away from Tallaght for good for my own safety? If I'm going to badmouth Tallaght I'll get the head kicked off me? It's crap like that why people think Tallaght is a bad area. The vast majority of people from Tallaght are nice people, it's people like you spouting that crap which give it a bad name.

    Jacinta: "Howayeh Chris....."

    Adrian: "Adrian, but anyway go on"

    Jacinta: "Sorry Adrian, yeh im from Tallaght and I just want to talk to that fella....hello?...."

    Adrian: "Yeah go on..."

    Jacinta: "Yeah I just want to talk to that fella...Anthony is it?....yeah he's a fcukin muppet"

    Adrian: "Well Anthony your a muppet, what do you think of that?"

    Be nice if people didn't make sweeping generalised statements.
