Why would you go to Dublin for shopping I can do it at home online in peace and harmony
I’m a “culchie” (hate the word) and I reluctantly LOL’d at this.
When you get a Dubliner going on about the city being full of Christmas shoppers on December 8th and calling them “culchies” or the day “culchie shopping day, then you know you’re dealing with a real idiot.
It was a thing a long time ago but rural people nowadays are not going to take a day off work and their kids out of school to go shopping when there are no sales when they could simply go on the weekend like most people.
I would personally prefer a culchie over the vast majority of people you’d see in Dublin…
My favourite thing is dubliners calling country people culchies as if Dublin is the emerald city, the zenith of mankinds achievements, a megapolis on which the gods fear to look.
