manc

Inhabitant of a horrid cesspit of post industrial decay in the north west of England. The Manc is a abbreviation of the word 'Mancunian' and the term is derived from the people of Liverpool, most outsiders think the Liverpool-Manchester rivalry is football but its roots go back to the beginning of the industrial revolution which made Liverpool and Manchester two of the richest cities in the world. Scousers and Mancs have a lot in common, both cities populations are Irish Catholic in descent, a love of football, a love of sports/leisure wear, a tendency not to work and claim benefits from the state, the same weedy, malnourished physique, like Scousers, Mancunians have a well developed sense of superficial friendliness, unlike Scousers, Mancunians are funny and can laugh at themselves -many of the nations greatest comedians are from Manchester and the outlying areas. Mancunians tend to have a black sense of humour and are loath to take themselves seriously - after 3 IRA bombs - the running joke is that the IRA did them a favour because they got a nice new city centre out of it! The Mancs tend to sneer at the Scousers self pitying persona and laugh at their persecution complexes. Manchester is the scene of high inner city depravation, crime and unemployment. It is a city without a role in the world and is reliant on football for its identity. Despite this, unlike their Scouse bretheren, Mancunians do not give a monkeys if you hate their city and think it is a shithole. They like it and thats all that matters. Neither do they care if you decided to voice a stereotype about Manchester - Mancunians tend to adopt a smug, self indulgence about their city, they like living in 'the Venice of the north' and if you don't like it - then sod off back to Liverpool you theiving scouse get! Manchester is a famous socialist city, a city that is historically tolerant to immigrants and newcomers, it also is home to one of the biggest gay communities in Europe.
