Dubliner

A specific breed of Irish person that vary from place to place.
Are incredibly defensive of Dublin, (for obvious reasons, everyone seems to dislike Dubliners?) Even though most can be 'dead sound' or 'a legend'

In the northside, typically, you are more likely to come across the tracksuit, 45 degree caps, runners types "Here yooou! Giz a fookin fag or sometin!"
And the southside, 80% of the time you are more likely to find, the preppy 5 stone guys and girls, that daddy buys everything for, the 'I just fucked this up' hairstyle that took 4 hours, rudgy, ponies, cars, OMG!

But it is not uncommon to find posh places in the northside and skanger places in the southside, Ballybrack + Shankill for example. These poor people have to live with the stigma of technically living in the southside, EVEN THOUGH daddy cant buy them a break my windows (BMW)
#1: Like OMG hi! A Dubliner! Roish where abouts are you from

#:2 Eh, the southside (wtf is wrong with yer hair? Were you dragged backwards through a bush?)

#1: OMG!!!! Loike me too!! How many ponies and BMW's do you have???

#2: None? My dad cant afford to buy me a pony right now? I have a nice little Toyota though?

#1: a Toyota?......loike, what is wrong with you? Thats what people in the third world drive? Omg! Where did you say you were from again?

#2: Shankill, why?

#1:........oh? Ew, I cant be seen talking to you!!

#2:........*headbutts in face* damn D4's

dumbing down

The act of taking a product and watering down elements of it to make it appeal to a broader mass market. This often damages or destroys the very elements that gave the product any appeal in the first place.
Today, many video games are dumbed-down in an attempt to reach mass market audiences for higher profits, instead of loyal hardcore niche audiences.

Dabbing

A new dace that's all the rage now a days. Made famous by some guy named Cam Newton. I think he's a golfer who won the Superbowl with the 1996 Bulls along side Michael Jackson. It looks like you are sneezing but you stick your other arm to the side like a sideways Nazi salute. This is referred to as Dabbing. The kids love to do it.
Andrew: Bless you
Billy Bob: Oh no man I wasn't sneezing, I was just dabbing cuz I got fifty tickets at Chuck-E-Cheese and can win a lame prize.

Dabbing

Sticking your face into your elbow while holding out a straight arm. This motion is supposed to "assert your bitch ass swag over everyone else."
"I dabbed on them folks down in the hood." Dabbing is the new popular movement, often done after rubbing hands together like making an evil plot.
