Scobies

ccd

What on Earth is a Scobie. Heard the phrase on televison last night, some guy being interview along with Glenda Golsern [ Skanky Ho] Kept mentioing them. He was being interview by some chick who kept speaking out the side of her face. I think the show was called the cafe. This chick seemed to know exactly what a scobie is

Im not 100% sure but I think its just another name for a nacker or a scumbag... Dont quote me on that tho

So this woman on the tele was cheekily referring to her fello panel member as a multi coloured plastic string?? that explains that so

A "skobie" is just another term for a scumbag. It's used alot in munster (heard it in cork and limerick).

rubadub

A lot of the time it is used before other terms like
scobie scumbag, scobie knacker.

Someone (from Louth, living in Lucan) used that very word in conversation last night, wtf, there's enough words to define a scanger, why do we need more!

The word is "scobe" and it comes from Limerick. Its another word for a scumbag/knacker/sham.

Used in context in Limerick: Look at the tackies on that scobe.

They are scoobie strings, as in the ghost hunting dog, not scobie which has correctly been identified as a scanger.

Could have also been talking about the program 'Pure Mule' where one of the main characters was called scobie.

county

i stand corrected

kurisu

According to some other post from some other thread -

Scobie is our word for Chavs. You know, blacked out 2 door '93 316is with 4" exhausts, rubber bands for tires, lowered seats and suspension, "Lexus" lights and a front splitter that also doubles as a parmesan grater. Generally, a scobie has a predilection for white tracksuits, baseball caps, waaay too much aftershave and hair gel. They tend to communicate in a series of one or two word sentences "Story?" "Happening?" "Dedly" "Rapeh" and so on. House music emanates loudly from gaudy woofers. They have a very strong sense of community, but are generally feared and loathed in equal measure by the rest of the motoring public.

Check out the pics:D

Reminds me of the Dance Tent at oxegen.

going back to the OP, was that 'the panel' you saw it on?
the guy who played the character called 'scobie' in Pure Mule
was on, hence the calling him scobie..

skye

A scobie is a new craze up north... kids are making them from plastic strings which are woven together in box shapes - they are worn around the wrist like a bracelet

nadir

I'd argue that it's more from Munster than any specific city. I've heard it in Limerick, Cork and Kerry for most of my life.

Scoobys are those plastic coloured strings that are woven together to make bracelets/keychains. They're been arounf for ages, much like knitting, and are just getting popular again now. It's the new fad. Great fad I think, getting kids to be creative and have something to show for it.

Scobe/Scobie/Skobie/Skobe are all words that mean scumbag/knacker/skanger/undesirable person

Rb

The guy on the Cafe along side Glenda Gilson was Paul Howard, the author of the Ross O'Carroll-Kelly books.
As said above, skobie = knacker/skanger etc etc.
