Chavs, Neds, Townies, Kevs, Charvers, Steeks, Spides…

Flashy gold jewellery (hooped earrings, thick neck chains, sovereign rings and heavy bangles); 'prison-white' trainers (so clean that they look new); clothes in fashionable brands with very prominent logos; and Burberry check baseball caps: the British phenomenon of chavs, townies, call them what you will.
Chav women, the Daily Mail wrote recently, 'pull their shoddily dyed hair back in that ultra-tight bun known as a "council-house facelift", wear skirts too short for their mottled blue thighs, and expose too much of their distressingly flabby midriffs'.
And now there's a website dedicated to tracking this not-so-new phenomenon...
http://www.chavscum.co.uk/index.php
Check out the videos (scroll down to the posting for 6/8/2004): real or fake?
Certainly brilliant!
Update: There has been a great (as in notably large in size) debate regarding the specific status of Chavs, Neds, Townies...etc. It is apparent now, that this world of people DO exist. For information on why/how Chavs are/are not cool, scroll through the following posts. Otherwise, another post regarding why/how Chavs are/are not cool is probably not necessary.

Well, if you charvers didn't go around picking fights on someone dressed differently, people wouldn't make websites up about you all being 'cunts' (which is their favorite word).
And its more like, we hate every damned one of you that other people around the world should know about how shit you are. Of course alternative people have lives, but because they known how to use a computer (which can give some of the best paid jobs) hardly means they don't.
I broke an arm cos some charver thought I was waving at him. He being 4 times the size of me, didn't really put up much of a fight.
Some can be decent, but most just arn't. They prowl around the streets on a friday night 'lookin' for sweaties to bash like ew' while drugged up to the eyes or drunk up to the eyes, hardly matters which.
If we wanted to be a charver, don't you think we would be one? Idiots. |

Hey, I have respect. I just didn't understand the slang terms used to describe these fine folks. Rather than a translation, would anyone like to offer an encyclopeadic definition of the cultural group to which these slang terms refer? None of these terms are familiar to me, being a middle-aged American, myself. I have a smattering of American Street Lingo, but the terms in this thread have escaped me. Is this a UK thing, a Euro thing, a Netherlands thing? Educate me, puh-leaze (that's Murrican for "please"). |

ummm... I called my friend Johnny Chimpo and he gave this translation: "so wot its da way da ppl wont 2 b we dnt complain but who cares i so dey cause trouble nd drink on friday nights but who cares dat da way 2 live smokin sum tac nd skunk who cares", means: "My best to the Missus, please do not throw cigarette butts in the urinal". Thanks, Chimpo
