    Not from Kilkenny myself, but the only people I've ever met with such a chip on their shoulder and irrational hatred of Kilkenny people have been Waterford heads, so I'm guessing that's where you're from? I think its a county past-time to complain about everything Kilkenny related down there. Possibly due to bitterness over hurling, although I can't be sure.

    FYI - Kilkenny is a prettier city than Waterford.

    (Bet ya I'm gonna be told now that Kilkenny's not a city)
