Do culchies even know it exists? I consider it one of THE most Dublin of Dublin icons

Are people from Sallynoggin culchies? I knew of a guy from there who had no idea where the GPO was when he was asked to meet someone there

Lads, I grew up in Summerhill, Ballybough and Coolock
Pretty sure I’m in charge of where everyone is meeting in town.






This is Dublin. What a day. What a city.

Everyone on this Island is a culchie.

IT's a culchie thing to think you are a sophisticated townie, wise to the world.

I self indentify as a bogger.
growing up in the countryside I used to pity people who lived in market towns.
having no neighbours is great

FWIW:
I've had the word culchie used towards me in ignorant malicious ways by fools who were probably bigoted in other ways. people who genuinely believe if you are a redneck then you are stupid and they are entitled to abuse you.
This has never happened with 'bogger'. jackeen is only ever used by me in reponse 'culchie' stuff.
in fairness this hasn't happened for donkeys years now.

this idea that ''people from that country / city / county / area / estate / family are all ----------- stereotype'' is total shit.
if you can't think for yerself it doesn't matter where you come from.
