    what exactly do chavs do ? i thought we were laughing at them cause of the stupid way they dressed and stuff! i didnt realise they were directly associated with all being common criminals (apart from driving their neon lit cars too fast)!

    maybe im just unsure of the definition. or maybe its got hazy with all the chav hype recently!

    Townie = dresses funny, drives kitted up Novas with neons, is called "Dwayne" or "Candice".

    Chav = all of the above, commits violent crimes/vandalism/theft for kicks.

    Anyone who tells you otherwise is wrong.

    It's not chav, its charv or charva.

    It's been used in the Viz for donkeys and we used to call kids that when I was at school for god sake (I'm 27!) up here in Newcastle. It's been a very common word up here for ages, and suddenly all these soft southerners think its dead funny.

    Very random.

    Charva = unemployed underclass who appear to run most inner cities these days, that hang about in bus stations drinking meths and White Lightning, whilst reproducing and sniffing glue. In Berghaus jackets and Reebok Classics.

    Vicky Pollard from Little Britain is a case in point.

    Ah yes, one to watch! Random fact: Chavs are Neds in Scotland.

    Same filth though...

    I dunno about anyone else but we've been calling these folks townies and kevs since I can remember... I personally think there are specific regional terms everywhere but some media types decided that chav was their favourite (or the one they used in their region) so it got coined as such. No one's right or wrong.

    My idea for a better Chav program:

    Two teams of 5: Goths and Chavs. To cut a long story short, half hour of death matches.

    Not only this would cut down on the amount of money being given away in benefits (freeing up money to be spent on reworking the NHS and pension systems), but it would also get rid of the goth population who are forever "depressed" and think they have a bad life. Not forgetting providing great entertainment for us.

    I better copyright this before the BBC use it for their own.

    I don't think 'm going to watch this. THe advert said this woman makes a "strong argument for the positive effects of the chav on popular culture" - it'd just make me angry.

    They were always townies or garys where I am. Chavs is a recent thing in the last 2 years or so.

    The programme is absolute ********. The presenter is a stupid bint, who's main reason for us to like chav's is because she is one.

    Point is, she's raised bollocks points...

    1.) She said Chav's don't like education, but want money. Hold on, Education = Money.

    2.) Whenever she doesn't like what she's hearing, she rolls her eyes, sighs, huffs and puffs etc, or in some cases, where she can't use one of her tired points, cries.

    3.) She constantly brings up the point of bullying because they're a lower place in the social heirachy - truth is, what about the multiple counts of GBH most chav's have... what's that? Making love?

    4.) "Lady Sovereign" is an uprising musical talent. :hehe:

    5.) She thinks Jordan is a princess.

    6.) Spread the love - a reason to pay the chav's benefits. Truth is, whilst we're spreading our love for them, they're beating up our best friends outside our local. That, or taking that TV/laptop you worked 56 hours of overtime for.

    7.) Middle classes are just jelous because of the fact they have a poor social system

    8.) When chav's are succesfull, they can bask in the fact they earnt it themselves, and not from daddy. Indeed no, they got it from the back of a lorry.

    It just over - and under - lines her snarling at the middle class, who don't beat, scrounge, or lout their way to the top. :rolleyes: Yet again, attacking the people that pay her benefits that she claims each month.

    they r the downfall of the society. :hip:

    p.s.sry peeps had to vent alittle but its all for a good cause.
