Strangerly

When two people have been constantly texting each other for months and have never met before but also can't meet now because they live really far away (mostly in different countries). It is a very weird dynamic for they share instances like normal friends but also reveal information and thoughts they haven't told anyone. Both adore each other and sometimes go on about what the other person means to them leading to romantic tensions. They both have decided to meet sometime and basically fuck shit up.
PS Strangerly can also lead to a fucked up sleep schedule in order to try to talk to the other person if both people live in countries with a vast time difference.
PPS It is NOT a long distance relationship

PPS You're a gold level strangerly if you both lived in the same city before you knew each other and started talking only when one of you moved away.

oh my god Becky I've been talking to him for months but he lives in Italy!:( I've told him stuff I've never told anyone before. Is this what being strangerly feels like?

scangers

Scangers are people usually from disadvantaged or impoverished working class areas of the northside of Dublin city and are also found in similarly poor parts of the mostly affleunt south. In the northside of the city they are commonplace and most youth happen to subscribe to the scanger culture whereby tracksuits (preferably nike) or trackies are worn, as are burberry hats and jewlery (bling) is worn. This on a whole is the cultural dress of the people and is complimented with thick drawlish dublin accents and an in-built expectation to show contempt for the authorities. There is of course exceptions to this and some area of the north are similar to the affleunt south e.g Howth, sutton, clontarf, castleknock, bayside and in these areas the D4 culture is prevelent

Scanger: Howaya, I ha' a bleedin' whoppa tieme las' ni' witch yar man. I tink im preggie

Scanger areas-finglas, ballymun, tallaght, ballinteer.
