Shushing up and giving you a wild stare when you and your mates walk into one of THEIR bars. Then a look of fear OR contempt when they hear your Northern accent. This applies south of Dundalk and Sligo only. "Jeez boy they're only in the place and they think they own it" is a favourite.

Wow. This will surely be a contender for "wittiest reposte of the year" in the 2009 Hoganstand Awards. I know you were so dissappointed you didn't feature in 2008.

Maybe I'm putting this on the wrong thread but would another culchie love thing be to shout for the non-Dub in other sports?
I noticed in Mayo on Saturday that nearly every one of the locals was shouting for Cordoba instead of Dunne.
Was this just an anti-Dub or anti-Dunne thing or does Cordoba have a big fan base in Mayo??

Also, we don't finish most of our sentences with "in anyways" :)

Not sure, I never understood the anti-Dunne thing myself. I mean every boxer should be cocky to a certain extent and he's a nice fighter and was a good pundit during the olympics imo. A lot people just begrudge everybody. I've a lot mates who hate Dunne, hate the rugby team, hate the soccer team, hate robbie keane etc. I just avoid them when watching sport cos they ruin the spectacle with constant negatives!

Why thank you breffni. And there you are again, in my shadow, like danny devitto in twins... But you see, I shun all imaginary award ceremonies so I dont think i'l be up for it this year. But please, keep me informed on who arrived with who, and of course the best dressed etc etc. I know ye cavan boys will be trying to squeeze into ur communion outfits for it... If you read Ulstermans post you might get the joke but nevermind... Dont worry about getting skinned again, you are taking on the master after all...

On the topic of mayo lads supporting cordoba, id say its more anti dunne than anti dublin... Dont forget up to that fight he had been very average, scraping by ageing last minute replacements and alsorans, but he talked like he had done something... Hence the dislike... Hopefully he can now defend his belt against some well known opposition and prove the doubters wrong...

I had read Ulstermans post actually, your reply was a typically juvenile response akin to "I know you are but what am i?" L.A.M.E.

Also self-praise is no praise, your posts are becoming more and more like snufs, ie referencing yourself and announcing yourself as winner of some argument.

No breffni, it was a joke, in the spirit of the thread and all that... I think Ulstermans post was the only serious one up to that, then of course you came along, jumping on the bandwagon of an ulster poster for a change...

You have driven me to resorting to snufs line of posting, the only difference being I do it on light hearted threads...
