    Can anyone help me out? A translation for " raping our ears" would be better".

    I wouldn't recommend using that phrase in any language, to be honest, but the translation you have in your opening post is pretty close to what you're looking for.

    Interesting blog, so far we have learnt that:

    "Hipsters" are *****, Hipsters seems to include a lot of people, but they're all ***** and elitist.

    People who speak Irish are also ***** it would seem and elitist.

    People from D4, Cork, Waterford and Derry have atrocious accents (Maybe they are also ***** and elitist, unfortunately these groups have not been discussed in detail.)

    I suspect this is due to these people not being "mad crack" like the owner of the blog, although at this stage I can't confirm that.

    Your blog reads like it was written by a cranky 14 year old. And you have a typo in the title of your latest post. That's kind of embarrassing.

    Anyway, we're done here.
