    Prepare to be outraged.

    Following out of curiosity...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,293 ✭✭✭billybonkers


    This happening now? Or was it over the weekend?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 292 ✭✭wizardman


    There ain't no party like a S Club Party Skerries Covid Party.

    Reddit Ireland

    TikTok vid doing the rounds of girls from North Dublin bragging about possibly getting/spreading Covid.

    I don't want to post the vid, as all the girls name themselves, their tags are evident, and I'm not entirely sure all them are over 18.

    So the story is about 35 girls booked a party bus to take them down the country for a mini-debs type scenario. At least two of the girls had recently tested positive for covid.

    The girls then make a series of tiktoks guessing who will be the next to test positive, posting pictures of them licking each others faces and bragging about how they like to share drinks with others when they are drunk.
    All the girls work in retail/restaurants around the same town. All them are due in to school (6th year) on Wednesday.

    How can people be so dim and selfish!?

    edit: People looking for some kind of proof.

    All Gaa and Soccer canceled in the town as girls were on teams. https://imgur.com/a/mgG7vOv

    edit 2: Latest suggestion is that the girls were working in cafes and pubs over the weekend while they waited on their tests to come back.

    I'm outraged out. Can't give a c*ap.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,588 ✭✭✭2ndcoming


    Seems all sports clubs in Skerries have cancelled all activities as well.

    WTF?

    I have zero sympathy for them if anything bad happens to them.

    I am beside myself with rage. Or am I.

    I wonder how much truth there is in this. Could very easily be doing it purely for attention and none of them actually have it.

    Of course if it is true then they're a selfish bunch of arseholes and will hopefully at least be ridiculed for some time for their sheer stupidity.

    Classy.


    Looking at that though, it just looks like kids spoofing to go viral and get those Tik Tok likes


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,987 ✭✭✭mikeym


    Can we lockdown Co.Dublin please.

    Too many muppets and tinfoil vests not following the guidelines.

    Better get their parents to resign just to be sure.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,694 ✭✭✭✭ACitizenErased


    There's a TikTok trend at the moment of people guessing which of their friends are going to test positive. 99% are fake. Not sure about this one though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,247 ✭✭✭milli milli


    If it is real (could be a spoof like another poster suggested) it’s a pity they can’t be arrested to make an example to others.
    A girl coughed in a garda’s face at the start of the pandemic and was subsequently arrested.

    They're all under 18 though

    If future gangsters can push a poor woman into a river and get away with it then it'll be the same here

    At no point in the video do they say anything which suggests they were trying to spread it? This could be completely made up

    I don't see where the whole COVID party thing is coming from that video tbh, it sounds to me as if there was a party, and some subsequently tested positive from it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,694 ✭✭✭✭ACitizenErased




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,128 ✭✭✭✭Oranage2


    Surely this can't be real

    It's very different and absolutely non comparable in context. The scumbag behaviour is at the same level though.

    If this party grows to a huge outbreak it's a whole different ball game.

    It's all fun and games until they try to spread it to the wrong person and he executes them.

    The law of diminishing marginal outrage is beginning to apply.

    Its over guys.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,748 ✭✭✭ExMachina1000


    Its clearly fake. Like obviously blatantly fake


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,270 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    This will be deleted. Someone on Reddit said they got an email threatening legal action.

    They sound like plenty of their Daddies and Mammies are in power positions.

    Good luck with that is my guess. Its blowing up tonight on twitter. That genie is hard to put back in the bottle.

    Are you gone daft? What are they doing that even remotely indicates they should be arrested and made an example of? J. Christ. A bunch of kids posting on social media. They're not hurting anyone. Teenage nonsense./pranks/dares.
    I'd shudder to think what you'd suggest for people who commit real crimes.
    ETA if they have committed serious crimes, fair enough investigate them but on the basis of that tiktok there's nothing in that.

    Their understanding of the internet must be limited :D

    They just have to be taking the p*ss. That or they're brain-dead.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,128 ✭✭✭✭Oranage2


    I'm actually too shocked to believe this.

    Hopefully none of them get seriously ill but it was extremely irresponsible(if true). But this was extremely stupid, can't see how anyone can defend their actions. (if true)

    Some of them do sound like they might have a learning difficulty though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,172 ✭✭✭cannotlogin


    Not the wisest or most mature group of young ones but based on the video alone, it could simply just be a case of one testing positive and then the rest guessing who will also be positive given they were socialising together previously.

    Immature, yes but no worst than that. Save the outrage until there's something to be outraged about.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,153 ✭✭✭✭normanoffside


    I’m shocked at the accents they have in Skerries.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,738 ✭✭✭Heres Johnny


    Ah, Whatsapp. That reputable source of information.

    Yes, read rest of my opening sentence. I said that.

    Second only to the daily mail.


    I asked Paddy power what odd of the daily mail running a story on this even though it's likely to be a prank.

    They said that they don't take bets on dead certs

    name and shame, high fines or if minors high fines for the parents

    will the reopened schools there have to be closed?

    I've just seen the video for the first time there and, wow, embarrassed for all concerned. Not just KPMG girl

    I won't link it as, if memory serves, it was banned on Boards and YouTube at the time after the girl's father took legal action

    Suffice to say, that if the Pub restrictions are extended, all the government have to do is play this video at the briefing and say "Here's why we think you're not ready for it yet lads ..."

    If this is not true, this is a bit more serious that the typical teenage prank, it's akin to shouting fire in a crowded theatre.

    Say it doesn't ton out to be true, this series of videos will likely lead to the suspension of sport in Skerries, and investigations to get to the bottom of it.It may also spark localized lock downs and other tightening of restrictions in the north dublin area.

    If it's a joke, no one is laughing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,982 ✭✭✭Polar101


    Not sure why anyone would post something like that on social media, but my outrage meter needs a bit more to get going. Such as a cluster showing up in Skerries.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,644 ✭✭✭✭punisher5112


    What absolute fcuking retards this generation seems to be....
    Tiktok is a load of balls too.

    These tools think it's hilarious


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,980 ✭✭✭s1ippy


    Is Tiktok private between friends or an open format where anyone can see? I thought it was probably maggot-acting at first but I'd say it's a prank now. Why would they say their name at the start like it's AA or something.

    Although the GAA Club in Skerries is closed because of multiple confirmed cases and clusters which have spread into the community because of close contact at training and parties so it's not outside the realms of possibility that those girls are a bunch of dense twits.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,094 ✭✭✭Ohmeha


    Horrible disgusting insensitive b!tches, I have family in the town and my elderly parents with underlying conditions regularly travel down there and were only down there the other day which will cause them so much concern

    It can be either. You can have your account set to private or public

    It's the new SnapChat for teenagers, they're never off it
