The Roaster Thread

I heard the Pines and the Illinios were both big hitters amongst the Irish community around that time to Massey. Both strip clubs now I believe.

The Illinois is just down the road from where I sit now - itā€™s a decent enough pub, the lingerie waitresses come out Thursday - Sunday along with the strippers.

A lot of non-roasterish behaviour being attributed to roasters here.

For example the lad wearing skinny jeans above is not a roaster. A roaster wouldnā€™t be seen dead in skinny jeans.

Fuck off, he clamped you good & proper there. A Roaster getting on public transport. :rollseyes:

:rollseyes:

Have we settled on a term for dyed in the wool roasters trying to break away from their roaster traditions and getting it badly wrong?

Who do we consider worse? For me itā€™s definitely the closet roasters.

Aka Murphy.

Oh shit, this is ground floor stuff here, we can make this a thing. Someone contact Joe.ie.

Hoasters?

Rohipsters?

Examples of Ripster behaviour:

  1. Lads who dress a bit better than roasters, but donā€™t really get the look right
  2. Still go to coppers on a normal weekend, but if thereā€™s a big GAA game on go to Diceys instead because only sheep go to coppers.
  3. Eat Chinese food, but only Curry/Sweet & Sour/Crispy Chicken
  4. Drink Hop House 13

No. 6 Being in a michelin star restaurant, and asking for a pint of milk.

No.7 Not knowing what the above foods are.

Unless itā€™s goats milk and fennell obviously

Never heard of fennell milk, would that be any use for a younger child I wonder?

Thatā€™s a roaster mate

East roasters.
