Your ass says "Juicy".
You listen to your whole music collection on your mobile phone. On public transport.
You have a daughter callled "Shaniah" or "Britney".
You randomly vandalise.
Your TV is far too big for your living room.
You have a fluffy pink steeringwheel-cover and matching dice.
You call it "me Growler".
The chipper counts as "Italian Food".

Anyone care to add to the list?

This whole celebrity culture thing is a farce, really, isn't it?
It's complete manipulation of young, naive people. High School Musical is a prime example. They even have HSM water these days. I know because my nine year old cousin had a bottle.
It's double the price of normal water, simply because it's "High School Musical".

Similarly, fans of a certain celebrity would buy anything associated with that person.
I'd be interested to know how sales of L'oreal products are doing, since Cheryl Cole's become a representative.

sales of cherry chapstick went through the roof when i kissed a girl came out.

You're probably right about the company endorsing the product providing funding. If it's an independently set up, new company though, I'd imagine funding will often come directly from the wealthy partner.

It is farcical for sure, unfortunately I don't think it's limited to exploiting naive young people. I'm 24 and know plenty of girls who religiously watch x factor, buy the gossip magazines, buy celebrity endorsed products etc.

Pretty sad reflection on a large section of modern society imo. I genuinely don't blame the celebrities though, the blame really lies at the feet of the mongs who fall for the whole thing.

If by young people you mean teenagers then you are way off the mark. I'm 15, all my mates are around the same age and we could easily tell the difference between a skanger and just another fellah trying to be a skanger.

for definition of skanger someone needs to put up a link to youtube video from athlone (I can't right now; youtube blocked and not using proxy)... the one with the 'female' asking the 'male' why he sleeps with hippos... it is taken on a mobile phone looking down into the street... it is scary... possibly a fake but funny nonetheless

This one?

You insist on paying child fare even though you're 21.
You stand outside you're school for the majority of school hours smoking.
You're 15 and have 3 kids.
You walk around your estate in large groups at the middle of the night, shouting and sitting on the garden wall of every house but your own.
You make sure everyone on the bus can hear what your saying.
You make sure everyone on the bus can hear the music you're playing.
You're friends congratulate you on your first ASBO.
You are completely Amoral, having never been subjected to right and wrong by your inattentive, uncaring and often absent parents.
You have an innate affinity to Hip-Hop/Rap
You have no desire to better yourself through honest means nor learn anything outside of car modification.
You love the tax-payer. They hate you.
You occasionally graffiti random places, letting people know you were there for no apparent reason- "Anto Woz Ere!"
When Chris Brown beat Rhianna you beat your girlfriend cos Chris Brown is "madt"
You and your friends hang around in gangs spitting a lot and trying to start fights with small children or anyone else that they could easily overpower.
It is medically impossible to walk by a male with long hair, without shouting "hippie!"
Your favourite places to shop are McDonalds,Burger King, and the local off licence.
Your mobile phone is a status symbol, and the louder you shout into it when talking, the higher your skanger status will rise.
You're 15 and got a pram for christmas.
Tayto bags are just as good as condoms....in fact, better!!!
You believe Sinn Fein are the greatest politicians to have ever walked the earth, however you still don't vote.
Humanoid in appearance, but primative and animalistic in nature.
You're 12 and wear a t-shirt bought by your mother, proclaiming on it your status as a "Slut"
It is impossible for you to use a public toilet without drawing on the wall. Usually a penis or "Up the IRA!"
You believe women are only suitable for procreation up to the age of 16.
Your male friends name's will always be abbreviated, with an "O" added on to the end.
You are a great fan of "happy slapping" believing it to be "tew madt" and great for those "f**kin hippies"
You think anyone who reads a book is a nerd.
The bigger and more aggressive the dog, the better.
All of your jewellery is from argos.
You consider yourself a golfer, yet you own no more than 2 golf clubs and only play in the local football field.
You can often been seen driving around back roads in your Citroen C2 with a "deadly" body-kit.

I could go on for weeks....

Your a skanger parent ..

If you have done the weekly shopping and the alcohol in your shopping trolly costs more than the food you've bought to feed your growing kids.

You give your kids crisps and cola for lunch. The crisps come from the large €1.50 for 12 packs.

If your kids mouths are dripping food dye from some cheap s**t sweets you bought them so that instead of having to give them attention you could chat with your fellow skangers.

If you feed your children processed junk and say things like "Sure they won't eat anything else".

Finally, your a skanger parent if your children scream 'f** off' or 'c**t' out loud and you laugh proudly and say "I don't where she/he hears it".

Southsiders are socially acceptable scumbags. They do coke inside and not on the streets.

you think your the man walking down the street in the daylight holding a open beer can or bottle, all the while not drinking so as many people will see you as possible, hard man strut is optional

I also forgot to mention that you're also a skanger if you hang out by that Evening Herald newspaper stand on O'Connell St, just before you turn down Abbey St.

Every fcuking day they're there. Raising a family there or something.
