    A serious pet peeve: Idiots who sit there on the bus, train or tram and just blare their rubbish gansta rap music out of their mini CD player for the rest of the train to hear. These people should be provided with a hefty fine for disturbing the peace and for being general all round d1ckheads!!

    I and im sure the majority of good law abiding citizens of Ireland would prefer to hear "like i was doing like this like this like today" than some chipmunk sounding, random noise.

    JJ Kavanaghs college bus. Nenagh to Galway but I think it starts in Carlow.
    If you know the midlands you know JJ Kavanagh

    Just under two hours of fiddly eye di die jig music blaring every Sunday night :mad:

    ask the driver to fuck them off

    Sometimes it's the driver who has the music on max volume

    you probably like listening to the sound of your own voice to. I dont listening to rap btw its heavy metal which needs to be played loud

    Just look at the guy or chick playing the music... a stair down... it will get madly awkward and the person will turn it down.. Works for me.

    Unfortunetaly there are people like that.. But remember - its crappy music for you, and your music is crappy to other people also. So it works both ways, not only for gangsta-rap ;)

    I threw three people out from the computer lab yesterday because they were saying ignorant **** like this: By which I mean talking sh!t about people with southside dublin accents. You know the expression "Pain in the neck"? They annoyed me so much that I did physically get one.

    They said "Do you mind if we stay if we're quiet?" I said "No, I do mind. Get out." I think that "Yes, I do mind. Get out," would have been more grammatically correct, but I was very annoyed.

    thats a very funny story u should have become a comedian not a bully!!

    Just walk up to them and start pulling the cock off yourself in rhythm to the music.

    No you misunderstand. Expressing hatred of people because they talk differently to you is not acceptable behaviour. The people I refer to were even nastier than you, in fact, because they were all locals in a place where people with southside Dublin accents would be very much a minority.

    Talking loud bigoted sh!t is bullying. My reponse was anything but - it was moderate to say the least.

    I should count myself lucky for not getting my head kicked in because I took issue with people making loud bigoted remarks? What a lovely world you inhabit.

    Here's a crazy idea: People with "posh" accents went to schools with other people with "posh" accents and grew up in areas where people speak with "posh" accents. People with "skanger" accents went to schools with other people with "skanger" accents and grew up in areas where people speak with "skanger" accents. Maybe they dont talk this was to annoy you personally, but it's just the way they talk. Kinda like having brown hair or fair hair, or light skin or dark skin.

    Maybe you should move past judging people on their accents at all.

    Recession tip! If you like Rihanna, any R&B stuff or anything techno, save yourself the money of buying the tracks/an mp3 player, and just sit on the Red line Luas every day for an hour to listen to them!

    yeah i wouldnt take that ****e from you, and stop been a twat by comparing racism to simple pet hates. i dont judge people by 'just' their accents, however like most humans, a persons looks and sounds are the first things to judge a person by.

    I'd give you your own show: How To Beat The Recession, Scumbag Style! :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,432 ✭✭✭df1985


    your accent is a product of where you come from to a certain extent, not a choice (although some exagerate it), just a shame some are bloody annoying!

    The d4 american twang is an exception, people seemed to bring that home in the suitcase after a week in new york.

    Good tip

    If you want to listen to the same music and breath in second hand smoke from joints go to the top deck of Dublin Bus 78A

    Eye contact is important when doing this.

    Either that or i just ask them to turn it down a bit politely.
