Are chavs really that common in the UK?
Snip, double post
[QUOTE=titopei;31732423]Are chavs really that common in the UK?[/QUOTE] Very common.
Pffft... IMO, the latin american equivalent of chavs/neds are the real deal... Around here in Buenos Aires, they tend to annoy people by using their cellphones as improvised boomboxes, blasting this kind of braindead music (WARNING: MAY CAUSE SEIZURES!) [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Noy4qJseK6U[/media] Or this latin shit, called "Reggaeton": [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6h4HbhH7okU[/media] Around here it's not about being all "gangsta", it all surrounds the whole "latin" look and attitude, as seen in that Reggaeton videoclip...
Something you should probably add to the OP, if you're white, male and have long hair, you would be intantly mistaken for an 'emo' or a 'goth' by chavs, causing them to flip a shit and start turning on you. However, one of my friends (full-on metalhead) somehow manages to stay friends with chavs, most likely because either he used to be one of them or the fact that they went to the same school, or just the fact that he buys them cigarettes and cheap cider.
[QUOTE=Dopey Trout;31716584]Buckfast isn't actually as bad as it's reputation would imply. It's better than fucking Stella, which is the definite "beer" of choice Lot of chavs went to my school though, though I think everyone in Scotland can say the same thing. A friend of mine in primary went off the rails a few years back after I stopped hanging around with him. He's in the clink now with a few of his friends for beating the shit out of a guy who was waiting at traffic lights in his car with his girlfriend and her parents. C'est la vie[/QUOTE] I actually quite like Stella... :smith:
[QUOTE=Glorbo;31731125]Israel has spawned its own, unique version to the Chav, called an [b]Ars[/b]. Yeah. [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ars_(slang)[/url] "A stereotypical ars wears tight, gaudy clothing and excessive gold jewellery, speaks "street" Hebrew with an excessive reliance on slang and swear words, is disrespectful to women and behaves rudely in public. The ars typically listens to Muzika Mizrahit (Hebrew: מוזיקה מזרחית), a genre in Israeli music originating from Arab music, and easily drawn to using violence - verbal and/or physical." They're Chavs with a middle eastern appearance, basically. Here is a typical group of, in lack of a better term, arses- [img]http://f.nanafiles.co.il/Upload3/xternal/israblog/71/57/27/275771/posts/16472043.jpg[/img][/QUOTE] Ahah, so, would the plural be Arses? I think thats quite fitting.
[QUOTE=daumantas100;31728838]Hahahaha! Those are your 'feared' chavs? Those are a bunch of long haired kids. We have people that hate these chavs with long hair. They're called forsai (forces). Tracksuit wearing, pumped, skinheads.[/QUOTE] No, these are not my "'feared' chavs", these are actually just a bunch of fucking annoying kids. Round here we don't get as many [I]actual[/I] chavs/neds anymore, we get a bunch of little kids who think they're fucking hard, hahaha.
We have a different breed around here in Portugal, especially here in my town. Its a mix of your chavs with black "gangsters". The ones in my town are generaly awfull copies and wannabe versions of the other gangsters around other towns. They think their the best, they ruin stuff to impose themselves and to have a false sense of accomplishment and to feel like their kings of the town and that they own it and say that drugs rule this whole thing and bla bla bla. I'm "friends" with one of them, which is probably the biggest idiot I've ever had contact with. He's the type of guy who greets you by squeezing your hand until you squirm in pain or gives you a combo of punches and kicks and slaps on the back to show how strong he is basically all the time. He then proceeds to tell how youre a little shit compared to him because your not out "experiencing never before seen things in life" (aka, getting ugly as fuck addict girls drugged and drunk so he can finally do something with them and getting drunk/high off his ass with his "bros") despite that you might actually be in the right way of being someone in life. Then, he proceeds to tell and show you yet another muscle building technique while you have to smell his sweat stench a meter away from him and after, he will give you a talk about how he used to be the greatest dealer in the whole region and how X did Y and W did Z and he worked with them and more stuff that nobody cares about and how he has more fun then you and bla bla bla. Then you figure out that everything or almost everything is a lie and then he proceeds to tell you about how the newly released naruto episode is awesome. I despise him. And the stuff he says makes me ask myself "how did I ever met him?"
Irish hoodlums in Boston are like our version of a Chav. Methinks
Where i live we have stoners who try to offer you weed all the time, And they have dreads even though they're white

OP you forgot to add the fact they walk around with their hands constantly down their pants touching their balls in public
Is this the UK's version of gangsters? Oh my, that's funny.
In America, we have "Wangsters" or "Wiggers" who try to act hard and shit. When in reality, they're burdened kids with fucked up lives. Some people would be really surprised by how these people are if they can get them in a room alone and actually talk to them. With society today, it always makes you think that if "You don't roll hard, you're going to die." bullshit. But, that's never the case. Some of the "Wangsters" are the greatest people I know, even though they put on the whole visage all the time. Society is a fucked up place, if you just give it a chance, you'll realize that maybe ONE of the bunch is just like you.

Roughly a week ago I had a chav try to start a fight with me while I was pissing in the pub toilets. All because I apparently 'looked moody' when I politely let him out of the toilet before trying to enter the toilets.

tbh I don't mind chavs as long as they aren't causing trouble or being dicks.

I love emo kids... Chavs can all die though.
Is Killing Floor's demonstration of a Chav correct? [img]http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2010/351/d/8/kf_kevo_the_chav_by_atagene-d352ogw.png[/img]
The only thing I ever learned about chavs was from the the Da Ali G movie [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9yOVjZsiOM[/media]
Seems like Great-Britain deserves a serial killer who targets chavs. Everybody would win.
This thread; so many stupid comments. All from people who really have no idea about what they're going on about.
The OP is missing about the fact that chavs can't use headphones, so always walk around blasting their shitty music in the open, even when alone. Also, Devvo is basically the average chav, if not a bit of a happier version.

[QUOTE=Araknid;31762154]So these guys? [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOwt12de1Qw&list=FLepHj2GUpMPw&index=16[/media][/QUOTE] Honestly they looked a lot more friendly than most chavs. Although you can't really tell that by the video. But still.
They should rename the Harry Brown movie "In a Nutshell..."
It seems to me that these 'chavs' as you call it, are poor white kids, with styles from like early 2000's who just discovered rap, and therefore suck dick at being 'hood' and rapping. Goddamn at least the gangsters where I'm from got swag. Watch the movie called 'kids' you'll understand how crazy the innercity can make some people into (hint: the movie is about aids) [video=youtube;Ky8wG7k8WUI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ky8wG7k8WUI[/video]
