    A few years back Dec 8th was the day the Culchies came to Dublin en masse to shop in Dublin in the ''Big Shops''. Now they have a big shop beside them, Tesco. Pennys, Easons, Harvey Norman ets.
    They also have internet, online shopping etc so the day of the ''Culchie'' is gone as they can get whatever they want without coming to the ''Big Schmoke'' I think Culchies are a thing of the past. Pity ! Who will I slag now ? Are you still a Mucker ?

    The junkies that line the streets of Dublin.

    I'll just open my popcorn and sit back and watch the Dublin verses Culchie war unfold before me.

    I'm born and bred in the back arse of nowhere and never had to go to Dublin to buy anything. We've always had shops here. Why do you need to slag culchies? Why don't you slag the Dubs who relocated to the countryside during the boom?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,029 ✭✭✭shedweller


    Plenty not too far from me. I'd be considered a culchie where i work but the real culchies near me make me look like i live on ailesbury road and have a chauffeur!

    So because you don't see them going up to Dublin on the 8th of December anymore, in your eyes they ceased to exist?

    You obviously weren't just listening to Derek Mooney. Ritchie Kavanagh was on with his new song. While he is cutting albums, there is proof the culchie is not extinct yet.

    I have a voice like the 'Stand Clear, Luggage Doors Operating' man on Bus Eireann buses. And I've chased some cows up a road with a stick while going 'gwan, woop' in the last six months. And I love ham and cheese sandwiches with a bag of Tayto.
