Us Dubliners are a fine breed.
Acutely aware of our soundness, craic and ability to command a room – we’re also cripplingly shy and hesitant to dance ’cause we’ve two left feet and are awkward as f*ck.
However, there are a few things we know to be true above others. And they are…
1. Eye contact on the Luas is, on some level, illegal
2. A nice Dublin Bus driver is the best thing in the world
3. The Barge is compulsory on a sunny day

7. Those who walk down Grafton Street at rush hour are at their own risk
8. You can be guaranteed that once the slightest bit of sleet arrives, the city shuts down

24. Yes, it is annoying

26. But most of them are
