      then how come you can take the boy out of the country but you can’t take the country out of the boy?
      i’m confused.

    Steer clear. Unless you want to be woken by the sound of a puck around in the corrider at the 3am on a Wednesday morning.

      But according to Anonanoanom as long people are available for ripping off you should rip them off.

      This is Ireland.

      Well spotted. If the word ‘the’ were changed to ‘this’ it would be an entirely different issue. Is it an entirely different issue? Or is it just as bad? Or is it as I see it – fair, unintentional warning to house hunters.

    Could he not be a bit clearer about how he wants to discriminate? Is it culchies only or Irish only?

            Oh right. It’s just that it seems like it was written by the person who had supposedly just done up the house at great expense, listing the improvements and specifying the price for each room, and whose contact details are listed on the ad.

        Half of them are the offspring of cousins from the country moving to the big smoke back in the day .

    Topics of conversation around the table (while eating hang sangwiches) will be limited to country music and slagging off jackeens.

      Very accurate. That’s all we talk about down ‘the country’…that and Garth Brooks because we don’t have electricity yet.

    Fair walk from Slatterys! Doubt you’ll get too many boggers round those parts. Far too many painful memories for Mayo lodgers round there too so dont expect Crosmilina lassies :-)

    I’m guessing this kip is owned by a guard from Mayo hoping to fill its rooms with gullible kids from the country who have just left home for the first time.

    No, all wrong!
    It means they’ll be going down home to Mammy every weekend, so owner can have the place to themself.
    Would have been easier to say Mon-Fri only.

    Just call it how it is – no howiyas , no ghetto monkeys. Standard. Its an unwritten rule when interviewing new housemates

      1. illuminati16

        The Other Irish are not howiyas , there’s hundreds of thousands of them . Only dubs are known as howiyas get with the slang !

  17. Just sayin'

    I’ve shared with Dubs and I’ve shared with “country” people and had considerable less hassle when living with the latter. All my bad experiences of flatmates have been with Dubs. Maybe that’s where they’re coming from?

      Maybe you just rubbed the Dubs up the wrong way by wearing your “good” wellies in the house, waffling on about that Junior B quarter final you were once a sub in & constantly asking them about road frontage…

    2. Jam

      Likewise. Also, a lack of inane predictable gags involving mud and potatoes and what have you as demonstrated on this thread is a great start when seeking a housemate.

      I lived with a ‘culchie’ once. Bridie was her name. When the wind blows in a certain way I can still hear her name….Bridie… Bridie..

      Who could live with a dub. Their backward narrow mindedness and living with their parents deep into their 20s creates a strange mono cultural social misfit.

      The filthiest person I ever house-shared with was from the heart of D4. When I saw the state of his parents house on days when the cleaner was due, all became clear. Second filthiest was from Monaghan.

      Mr Muscle himself wouldn’t be able to keep that kitchen clean Frilly. They’ve gone for dirty grouting as a feature.
