not cork myself, but my experience of corkers confirms this.
Looks like my gaff

Everything is wrapped in brown paper and lovingly labelled ‘Cork’?

I must send over the youngfella’s school books for you to wrap Frillser
Do Clongowes not provide his books for him?
For 20k a year you’d think wouldn’t ya?
In any other county you’d assume that was a joke…
This gets to the heart of the matter.

O’Ruiseal’s is a great bookshop either way
Cork
“Of Mice and Cork” – great!
Look back in l-anger
Ah, put a cork in it!
I’ll Boy It!
I used to know a bloke from Cork.
We used to call him Korky.
– You’d think he’d take it like a compliment, but no…
Woulda been nicer if they didn’t use Times New Roman font on all the labels. Spice it up a bit with an Arial Black or an Impact. God knows the world could do with a bit more Verdana.
it’s Cork – Times New Roman is still the pinnacle of design.
And yer Tom Ford yerself

Oh hello, nice banter last night.

Ladies, please excuse my remiss.
I’m not nearly always as tardy as this
I’ll be back next week
Acting like a friendly freak
You know I’m only taking the Hang on…
…there’s a weirdo hiding in the bushes. I’m not messing. I didn’t imagine it…
-He looks like he’s gone a bit ‘Bertie’.

I do like, “This is a book about Cork”.
I’ve always admired how Corkonians (or Corkies as we call them in the capital) love everything about Cork. Tell a Dub that Dublin is a great city and you will get an earful of how actually crap it is….. tell a Corkie that Cork is a great city and they will agree with you and speak about then gaff for hours!
lets bring back the pride to Dublin…
I love Dublin with every ounce of my being, I get homesick if I even have to go to Ashbourne.
‘Corkies’? I don’t think I’ve heard that expression in a non-footwear context.
Corks floating along nicely lads. Dublin is one of the richest cultural capitals in the world.
Is there anything to be said for Offaly?
No there is not. Are you mad?
This is why I will NEVER partake in online conflict.
I don’t even know where Offaly is.
Yup. It’s not Longford.

The Tipp North Riding / Offaly Border Disputes
The Bar-man who served me my “Porn Star” cocktail in The Temple Bar the other day was from Tipp, I did ask was his accent from Cork. I think he charged me extra.
And spat in’it
And who can blame him.
The very cheek!
It did take him a very long time, 20ish minutes to present my cocktail, apparently they only do it next door, I made a “joke” about it being a long way. So, undoubtedly there was a certain amount of sputem involved.
Mattie Connor, great footballer. Hurling team great in the 90s -not so much now?
The uneven Title Cap usage is hurting my eyes.
Cork is grand, like. I can say that, being from there. I wouldn’t go back and live there in a fit, though.
