K1ltim4gh (pronounced /ˌkɪltʃɪˈmɒk/) is said by some to be a possible origin of the quasi-derogatory term (depending on context and use) "culchie",
iirc i have been directly involved in every instance of the word 'culchie' on ilx.
and it's always derogatory. we've been trying to take it back but tbh as a group we lack the necessary appreciation of meme appropriation

i like him, but enjoys fucking w/ppl and there's something totally off-putting abt his manner.

lol i love ireland. quick story abt the last time i saw him--a few of us were getting drunk in a hotel bar in a converted castle somewhere northwest of galway. noel spots this eighteenish american kid with his family, buys him a couple drinks, and spends the next 90 minutes trying to convince the kid that he might actually be gay.

Disaster - last night in my dream I did meet another ilxor, who dropped by my house. It's best not to say who because he was totally charmless, dismantling my stuff and complaining that we hadn't made him anything to eat, but I had to make nice because I needed him to sign some cheques (which he did eventually, but badly, so I hope the bank don't look too closely). This guy was so moany that my sister painted him a collage of contenders from British party leadership contests (featuring Heseltine as a frog-on-a-throne, John Major in a pink linen shirt, and Gordon Brown replaced by an 'anyone but Brown' billboard) as a sop, which he snatched at but clearly didn't get or was interested in, which really annoyed me cos it was loads of work, and now I've woken up all tense. Also, he started the dream as a dwarf, and ended it looking like a greasy James Corden.
I'm not doing that again.

Can not really figure out Belfast usage of "culchie", have heard it used to mean "students from Tyrone who wear GAA shirts and trash Belfast's notoriously rowdy student housing area on St Patrick's day" and "weedy pseudo-intellectuals all reading their newspapers and novels which don't involve stuff blowing up" and anything in between
as someone from a small market town in a slightly (but not very) rural bit of England I haaate hearing Londoners use words like "provincial" so if that is all it means then I am not for it, but it is a euphonious word I guess

xp it's like 'provincial' but with added whip.
main difference there being chez nous we have a superiority complex wrt dubs, so really it's quite funny.
xxp- yeah i reckon it was me too!

I thought culchies were townies who go out and lairily drink on a Saturday, but without fighting - if they fought, they would be SPIDES.
