    do any of you guys even know the definition of culchie???

    For those that don't:
    Culchie = a person living outside the Pale who possesses a very low IQ.

    I have seen Jacks calling Masters and PHD grads from Wicklow and Kildare "culchies" :rolleyes:

    Getting back to the question at hand, Sackville street anyone :eek:

    Everyone from outside the pale has a low IQ though.

    So yeah, your definition holds up I suppose.

    Fishamble street.

    Johnson's court

    I used to love Dundrum Main street til it got ruined by the Dundrum Town Centre

    Many a time I'd take a wander up and then end up at Crazy Prices to wonder at all the secret items hidden in boxes :) Them were the days!!!

    Other than that? I love Johnson Court - It's that tiny little road the leads from Grafton Street to Powerscourt centre and has all the jewelers along it

    I almost forgot.

    Holles Street.

    I was born there :D

    I take it as a compliment when I'm called a culchie or whatever. Simply because it implies i'm not a dub.

    Coke St.

    Fellatio Terrace.

    It's "Coke Lane" - bottom of Smithfield... Presume "Fellatio Terrace" is an attempt at humour...

    Back on topic -

    Foster Place beside Bank of Ireland, College Green, could be great - it's one of my favourites. Shame that BoI have closed the Arts Centre there :(

    i dont like streets, i prefer roads, they're more friendly and i feel more comfortable walking on them....... jaysus what a dull topic


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 271 ✭✭Lynibeth


    Leeson's st. :D

    Nah.. I dunno.. Eh.. Capel st.. All those sex shops and then there's the hemp shop and nirvana.. It's pretty cool

    Pale, outside the Pale.

    Dawson st. for me thanks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,124 ✭✭✭missmatty


    Wexford & Camden Street ftw, I remember when there was nothing much going on there at all.

    So if you've lived in Dublin for yonks and have 2 higher degrees are you still a culchie, is there a cut-0ff point or are you doomed by birth? :D

    You got me there. There is no "Fellatio Terrace"!

    Well spotted on the Coke Lane by the way. That was a breadcrumb for sharp eyes to spot. I'd give you a gold star but I used them all up on your ma.

    Nassau street is by far the worst street. Too long, too many buses, too much people, narrow paths, building at the mo, and **** all good shops on it.

    Was at a Bohs match recently and the Bohs fans kept on singing over and over again "We're from Dublin so we're better than you" over and over again at the Cork City fans.

    That basic simple chant sums up Dublin arrogance..kinda fun..and kinda true. Drove the City fans mad ;)


    my fav street is parliament st.

    I love all those streets in Amsterdam with the coffee shops and the ladies of the night in the window. Dutch Heineken is WAY nicer than the slop we get over here as well.
