What are your opinions on Chavs?

The forum that I'm a regular on is Chav-oriented well at least until they changed the name to Spazmonkey but they still talk about them.
What are your thoughts and opinions on Chavs?

I come across a lot of chavs in the course of my work and they don't bother me too much. They are just working class people who have money or think they have money.

I don't think this is a particularly aspie view of life but it needn't cause friction. Best not take them too seriously.

I'm afraid my fellow newbie but I think your a bit awry with what you think describes best what a Chav is.
Julie Birchill the po-faced cow that she is reckons the working class are Chavs which is nothing but insulting to a working class person like me because it's all about the attitude.
If anything they are peasant class but I don't seem to cross swords with them that much and they don't seem to affect me either.
But some people on Spazmonkey feel a little bit strongly than me.
I'm not actually a diagnosed Aspie yet.
All will be revealed in two weeks time if I am or not but my sister has a strong hunch that I could be.

When their in a gang they try and look big and act as hard as a rock, and when they walk past you by themselfs they s**t theirself. Some are ok when they are by themselfs.

I blame thatcher

'there is no such thing as society'

not anymore thanks to you, you old witch!

I'm not sure what a Chav is. Does it taste good?

i do not like them as I have had a lot of trouble in the past. For example, them stubbing ciggarettes out on my head, stealing my bike etc....

I hate them with a vengence.

They can be really nasty at times.

ASBO the lot of em!!

This word shows how struck you are on that place called england I had to search for the term it means nothing to me. But from what I found sounds like class snobby is alive and well still in england. And working class In North America have ppl treat them diffrent. But as far as I know do not have rude words about them. The rough ones that attack ppl would be called anti-social, arrested when they did attack someone. some other words they would be called would be thug,scum, gangbanger lots of diffrent terms.

I don't know what it is either.

wikipedia on the definition:

"Chav is a derogatory slang term in popular usage throughout the UK. It refers to a subculture stereotype of a person who is uneducated, uncultured and prone to antisocial or immoral behaviour. The label is typically, though not exclusively, applied to teenagers and young adults of white working-class or lower-middle class origin. Chav is used for both sexes, where a male chav is sometimes referred to as a chavster and a female as a chavette. ..."

to me it just sounds like 'gangsta's ... meh... theyre a pain when they get all big on you... but if theyre cool, its cool...

Yes it is excellent, but I believe the spelling sould be, "Chivas" It's been a few years since I indulged.

So, are we talking about gangs and gang members here or what? Or just simply uneducated, intolerant jerks, which are common in all "classes" of people, if classes actually exist that is.

Sounds like a Bogan.

A bogan is usually and older person that wears 80's type clothes and music and things.

I object on behalf of all older people like me. I may be a red-neck but not a bogan, who is the natural enemy of the surfie.

So, a chaz is a soccer fan?

yes, they will cause violance in any sport including tumb wars world cup if there was one.

What about bling? I was always under the impression that overly heavy gold jewellery and burberry baseball caps were part of the deal.
