View Full Version : The Chavs Thread
Are you fed-up of the usual baseball-cap wearing pondlife that hangs around shopping centres and/or insist on pointlessly driving round town in 'customised' Ford Orions. The Chav has become the scurge of the UK. Have a laugh at their expense with the following link.

Try the baby naming facility, and also check the links on this site. Some of them are particularly good, namely Sheppey Scum.

There's nothin' wrong with "chavs," ya 'ear me Reggie? Nothin' wrong with 'em at all. Sweet as a walnut geezers, they are. What's the problem with someone wearing a cap and having a car?
If I treated all of the "skater," "goth" and "punk" groups in the way you lot are making out you treat chavs, I'd have to bomb my local Woolworths every day because all these stupid goth kids (who can't even match clothes sizes to their own bodies) dressed in all-black, with black lipstick (and that's just the boys!) have decided the doorway of Woolworths is a good place to sit and have lunch every lunchtime. How fuckin' stupid can you get?
Then there's the skaters who go around with their skateboards. Woooh. Look at us. We can ride a four-wheeled contraption that takes up too much space on a pavement at speeds that mean the onus is on the other person to get out of the way, not us. Woooh again. We wear jeans that are about 11.5 sizes too big for us, because we like having the puddles soaked into our clothes. Our favourite time to do all of the really loud skateboarding tricks is about 3 A.M on a Monday morning.
Anyway, I don't know what everyone's obsession with "Ooh, he's got a Burberry baseball cap, get 'im!" is. If you done your research, you'd know that Burberry baseball caps aren't genuine Burberry, and Reebok Classics are actually a good pair of trainers to have on your feet for comfort value. I mean, yeah - they help you pull 14 year olds in Dagenham too, but that's merely a bonus. ;)
P.S. Hopefully Nifty is back, with working internet and stuff.
woolworths = goth/punk/skater central, its the same at the town where i used to go to college, they'd all stand around and plug up the entrance to the shop and generally look ridiculous but the few ive met turned out pretty decent people
i dont have a problem with chavs, quite a few that ive met at college were actually decent people aswell so its unfair to judge people based on their appearance

Some chavs are alright, most of my mates are chavs, even im a bit of a chav aswell, but i don't go taking it to extremes.
The thing with goths is, they are all trying to be different, but by doing that theyre all being the same so whats the point?

Chav of the Month. :D
I think i live in a town full of charvers. Its so bad, i wouldnt dare walk past the bus stand, and its not just the distinctly strong smell of piss coming from it thats the problem, its becasue all of the "charver" lasses hate me and will most definalty black my eye if i did as much as look.
its not the way they dress that makes people hate them. its their whole attitude. they seem to think the world owes them something, that they are real hard and can generally be just bullies. so its not ALL of the people who wear tracksuits and burberry baseball caps. they can be very intimidating as cheryl has said

My feelings exactly. Although i branded all chavs as "baseball-cap wearing pondlife", its not really about their appearence. I like white trainers and a pair of track-suit bottoms as much as the next man. However, when i was a few years younger i never felt the need to hang around in gangs outside my local shops, doing nothing in particular except intimidating old ladies and generally behaving in an antisocial manner.
Its the Chav culture i dislike - their ultimate goal in life seems to be gaining an ASBO from the local court, or getting an appearance on Trisha under the caption "DNA Test - Is he The Real Father?" And for the Chav motorist, the aim is to turn a near MOT failure into a hideous modded design freak and then hurtle around Toys 'R' Us car park at 90mph.
As for goths and skaters - i have no problem. Goths are generally intelligent people who respect others and dont harm anyone else. Skaters, again, apart from the 'aiming for you on the pavement' part, they are ok. Its just those pesky Chavs.

I don't mind Goths too much either.
With Skateboarders, there is a simple solution.
Clothesline them!

What would be a fun and simple way to make them all fall off? :)
From the chav forum:
how clever and witty you all are
who the @#%$ do you think you are to judge millions of people just by how they dress?
im sure you all think your very clever sitting behind your computer screens taking the piss, but really, look at yourselves.
do you think any of these 'chavs' make websites about you and how you dress? no, they couldnt give a toss.
dont judge me an i wont judge you

Luverly-jubberly pic, Zyg. Gor blimey guv'nor these boys ever heard of the word "individuality"? Doubt it. Strange how to gain identity you have to copy everyone else!
Crawley's full of them. You see, the town expanded after WW2 to accomodate the bombed-out cockernees.
Their grandsons are the current scurge of the town, come & visit the culture capital of the UK. Think down-market Milton Keynes & you're there! The granddaughters are also a bit of a problem; clogging-up all the town centre shop entrances with their side-by-side prams!
Our chavvie boys hang around the town centre mall. It's the biggest in Sussex, that says it all really.

either that or "wanker"
but you have to admit they do look quite silly? i mean they have no sense of style or originality. they all look the same.
good point about the goths and skaters. they are actually really nice people who dont judge you for what you look like etc. just because you don't dress like them they'll still talk to you etc and dont want any trouble.
most chavs go looking for it
for me, its nothing to do with how they dress. i couldnt give a shit what people wear, its up to them.
what they wear just helps me to spot them, and seeing as 100% of them are trouble causing nothing-better-to-do fuckwits, i try to avoid them
Im glad im not the only one intimidated by these people.
Ive never felt the need to sit in a bus stop for hours no end neither getting into "trouble" and acting like i own the place.
At the end of the day, its those type of people who end up in a dead end job or with a kid sponging off the state. I really hate gilrs who do that, get pregnant so that they can leave home and get there own house and live off benifits for the rest of there living days!
I hate chavs, fucking arseholes the lot of them, they go round in their gangs thinking they are so hard but when they are on their own they never say anything.
In Newcastle there is a place called 'Hippy Green' where all the goths go, chavs go there to cause trouble with the goths, they also play there shitty "New Monkey" music at full volume wherever they go
yeh also if u stand up to them they will back off cause they are scared of people that have the 'bottle' to stand up 2 them

They all hang around outside Spar here and it's the only shop open late so they have an easy job finding people to intimidate.
at halloween they came trick or treating and we told them to fuck off so they stayed outside for about half an hour waiting for us!
lol what did u do then ? ? ? u should have thrown a bucket of water over them lol

Very interesting.
So far, the general consensus is that "chavs" are self-centred, judgmental, trouble-making, unoriginal, waste-of-space, intimidating bullies with nothing to do with their lives. It's also been mentioned that they're stupid, and scared deep-down of anyone who stands up to them.
Well, I'm a chav. And I resent all of this. I'm more intelligent than a great deal of you on the boards (and I don't mean that in a patronising way, I mean that in a factual way). I'm a very amicable person, as well. I don't go out looking for trouble, or for Goths to beat up. Sure, I've got a skinhead, I wear Reebok Classics and Nickelson shirts - does that automatically make me the Satanic off-spring?
Interesting that the same people who call chavs "judgmental" are the ones who then go on to stereotype everyone. "All chavs are bad. All Goths are good." Stereotype. "No Goths go around harming other people." No, they just harm themselves, all this "sacrification" rubbish. I'm surprised no-one's called chavs racist yet - that's the favoured perception around my area. Apparently if you wear Reebok Classics, you hate black people. But who came up with that theory? It wasn't the chavs - no. It was all of the other social "groups."
I guess no-one on the boards likes me anymore, because I'm a "chav." Nice to know that everyone's so open-minded.
I have a final question for everyone that's been insulting the chav attitude - what social group do you think you belong to? The way you're all going on, it seems like you've never actually had a conversation with a "chav," yet you're all very willing to assume certain things about the entire Cockney population.
I don't like the fact that I've been called unintelligent, intimidating, a bully, a waste of space, amongst various other things. I bet you all assumed I was a really intelligent skater boy, or something? Wrong.
I was speaking from personal experience of chavs, chavs may be different in London to Newcastle but a lot of chavs that I know just generally cause trouble and drink Lambrini.
I remember from my days at school, chavs used to take money off me and my mates, and verbally abuse teachers.
I wasn't talking about Cockney chavs, I've never met one, but Newcastle chavs generally irritate me

I don't mind what you call yourself so if you're a chav then good for you. But you'll always be in your own special 'class' to me - The Nifty One! So don't worry, I won't hate you.
Are you sure you're a chav or are you just saying that to get a reaction from people? You sound a bit too articulate and educated to be a chav. That's what it seems like to me.
Do people hate chavs? I was just laughing at them. Although when I see them around, I laugh at them while feeling a bit sorry for them.
And no I think you're safe - not too many here would have thought of you as a skater boy ;)

Ok so you consider yourself to be a chav purely down to the way you look. But, you need to take on board what myself and others have said about chavs being disliked for their lack of individuality, culture and respect, rather than their appearence. Its a lifestyle issue being raised here.
You are obviously an intelligent man (however a little less arrogance would be appreciated - do you have a degree? I have a degree in Aerospace Engineering but i dont go around claiming i'm more intelligent than everyone else). This alone leads me to believe you are not, in fact, a 'chav'. You just choose to dress like one. Do you hang around shopping centres in a gang, trying to be a 'gangsta' and intimidating passers by? I dont think you do but please enlighten me.
Finally you must look at yourself here. You quite openly knock others for using text-speak, aka fuckwit. However, this is the language of choice for the chav, something you propose to be by your own admission. Is this a case of double standards?
I have a lot of respect for you on this forum, so dont take what i have said the wrong way. I thankyou.
PS. Chavs are not jsut a London thing, its a UK epidemic.

I agree, judging by what everyone has said on here, i must be chav. I go around in a gang, but no-one has been intimidated by us before. Hell, most of the people i go around with are A/B grades at just about everything, yet there chavs. As for the whole chav mentality thing, thats just a small minority that are like that, yes we have the odd one or two that are like that in our town, but generally everyone is ok with each other where i live, and im in deepest, darkest Essex. How do you think I'd feel/be like if everything you said about chavs on here was true?
Listen mate. If you were a true chav you wouldn't be on here. You would be playing FIFA - the chavs game of choice because it doesnt challenge the mind.
Come on lighten up, dont take this too seriously for fucks sake.

OK but what you (and some others) are saying is that every Reebok classic wearing, Nickelson T-shirt bearing person is a twat that goes round starting on people for no reason, standing around outside the shops & barries about in Vauxhall Nova's. Which isn't exactly true now is it. Its like me saying that every goth is a self-harming, depressed person, who always wears black & wants to kill themselves. Thats not true either. Im not taking it seriously i just find it annoying when people talk about groups of people (a group that i fit into) and automatically assume they're all a bunch of no good, drop-out wankers.
In my posts ive said its a culture thing, not how people look neccesarily. It seems other people keep going on about Reebok classics etc. Not me.
Lets agree to disagree.

Interesting bit of conflict here. There's those who say that "chavs" (I put it into quotation marks because I'm against the whole grouping of people based on appearance thing in general) all dress the same, and are all stupid, and there are those who say "chavs" are recognised as that due to lifestyle.
Those who are saying "chavs" are identified so based on appearance and how they look - have you all actually met any of them? Because if you saw me walking down the road, or sitting on a wall drinking a can of "What ya lookin' at?" (or Stella Artois, as it's commercially known), smoking a cigarette, would probably get scared 'n' cross the road. Even though I would have no intention of speaking to you, or intimidating you. If this happened, you'd probably assume I was stupid, even though (arrogant it may seem me saying this) clearly I am not.
The other side of the coin suggests that "chavs" are bullies, who intimidate old ladies and what-not. Or do you have to both wear "chav" clothes and act like that to be classified a "chav?"
And why are you saying txtspk is the "chav" way of doing things? Ashmufc uses txtspk, I bet he's not a "chav." Kcgpen uses dyslexic txtspk, he's not a "chav." You're stereotyping again. Whichever way you look at it, regardless of whether you've got TWO Aerodynamic Engineering university degrees, you're in the wrong with your stereotyping. OK, much of what you say applies to many of the people you'd call "chavs" - but not all of them. I bet no-one looked at Audley Harrison in the street and thought "He's a shit fighter, I could have him anyday" because he appeared like he could handle himself - and look how that turned out.
I'm an intelligent "chav" - end of story. Maybe it's a bit different in London, because the "chavs" here aren't really against the Goths - there's a general consensus to mutually hate the "rudeboys" (like kcgpen, let's all be scared of his gat). It's a race thing, in general. "Chavs" don't go around mugging people (white people, anyway), because it's felt there's a lot of racial tension, with (predominantly) black "rudeboys" going around mugging white people. It's all a very complicated issue.
Anyway, the reason I'm talking intelligently in this topic is because it was riddled with arse-talk - it needed a quick injection of intelligence from somewhere. If you saw me on the street and said hello, I'd probably nut ya, sunshine. ;)

Like i said, after you managed to type all that ^^^^ its pretty obvoius youre not a chav, anyone in any doubt, come down to Stevenage town centre on a friday night or hang around Newport in wales for a while. They be chavs ahoy!
there are other places.... ruislip etc but ive never been there.
I think we will have to agree to disagree here. If you have an irrational hatred of Chavs, thats fine. If you like Chavs, thats great. If you are a Chav then thats your choice, thats the beauty of a free-country.
My opinion of true Chavs remains unchanged - i do not like them. There is nothing anyone can say to convince me otherwise. Because where i live, the vast majority of trouble is caused by a select chavvie group who give the harmless chavs a bad name. When you see young chav kids running around in the street at 11pm with not a parent in sight, mouthing off to passers by and causing mischief (i've had 2 cars vandalised on my drive by chavs who ran off into the night), then you have to fear for the future of our society.
Unfortuantely, Nifty, it is the Chavs who are making most of the trouble on our estates and in our town centres - you would have to be very naive, or over politically-correct to think otherwise. This is something that goes beyond race and wealth because chavs come from all backgrounds.
As i have said before, its not how you dress, its what you do with yourself. I would never write-off anyone who looked like a chav as being a thug or idiot, its just a fact that many of these people are because thats how they see they have to act to fit in. I mean they dont do themselves any favours do they? Hanging around in huge gangs outside shops, swearing & spitting. Even if they are perfectly harmless, what is the older generation supposed to feel when they walk past these people? Well, most are scared and i think its a sad state of affairs.

Surely you're contradicting yourself here? I think it's an important issue to the discussion, as the central argument I have is that the perception is skewed - I'm not saying all "chavs" are nice people - I know they're not.

11-06-2004, 20:43
Errm Nifty, any generic term that classes people who dress similarly (which to most people is the defining factor of the chav, or "Kevin" as they're called round here) and have nothing better to do than hang around shopping centres gazing at nothing in particular, is bound to be stereotyping by definition. You know that!
Stereotypes do have their uses, but also their limitations. Politicians, the media, the advertising agencies; they all use stereotyping as part of everyday life.
For me, the stereotype is the baseball hat & shiny shell-suit, which has sadly re-emerged in Crawley in the past couple of years.
Sorry, but there ya go, call them value judgments, stereotypes, whatever... we all make them every day, it's understanding why that matters.

11-06-2004, 22:09
I'm not disregarding that stereotypes exist - I just think the arguments that people have been using to, quite plainly, insult "chavs" have been based on the fact that they're judgmental, and all the same - which, in many instances, has been very contradictory to other examples used by aforementioned people.
I'm not arguing that "chavs" don't cause problems, simply that not all of them are thugs. I bet there's "Goths" around that cause trouble too - I've seen them. There's always minorities of every commonly-known social group that cause trouble. I don't know whether the thread starter intended to separate "chavs" from "townies" - or whether he's grouping them together, and (if the latter) unacceptably stereotyping. That's what I wanted to know. Maybe I didn't phrase it properly.

Thread starter here. This is the chavs thread, townies in my mind are a different breed. So no, i'm not unacceptably stereotyping. And as i said, i wouldn't tar someone who chooses to look like a chav with the same brush, unless they were acting like true chav.

Anyone that wears a Tracksuit tucked into their socks has thought about commiting an illegal act, be it muggin, mindless vandalism, burgaling, petty theivery or anti-social behaviour so they are all scallies/chavs/neds/townies etc.....FACT.
I wear my trousers tucked into my socks, when I play football, does that make me a ned???
I have commited "mindless vandalism" petty thievery" and "anti social behaviour" before. Does that make me a ned??
Saying that neds are the only people causing trouble is stupid.
I know skaters who are already into heavy thievery, vandalism, underage drinking etc. But I know some who are sound, and don't do these things.
Similary, I know people from the Haldane, the "toughest" place in my region, who are sound, but similary I know some who are complete neds, who hang about in gangs fighting with people from the Dinky, BYT and Renton.*
And moshers/goths, I know some who go to church very Sunday, and I know some who like to cause trouble, not major trouble but..vandalism, etc.

Maybe the original post in context could be seen as stereotyping, but in my defence the people that wear these clothes know the labelling that goes along with it, and are happy with that, so there must be a certain truth between 'tracksuits and rockports' and youth crime.

I personally care very little for peoples' dress sense. I believe most people tend to follow the crowd anyway, so it's rather hypocritical for them to laugh at those who wish to dress like a chav.
I just dislike the intimidation that comes with them. I generally find myself stumbling home on the way back from a night out when there is between 10-15 of them in a small, ill-light passage and I need to go through it to get home. At which point a barrage of abuse will be hurled at me. The saddest thing about it, is you quite cleary know they would never say a word to you, if they were on their own.

When we played Gillingham once, down at there place, we had to go through the town centre, my god. There was thousands of them! All with a Burberry cap on, Tracksuit bottoms tucked onto there socks and a pair of Rockport boots on there feet. They all look the same, no originality. The ones round here are complete tossers.
One night me and me mate were walking up the pub to meet his girlfriend, these chavs were in a gang of four, about 17/18 year olds, when we got the pub giving his girlfriend shit, "Nice arse" "Can I have your number" amongst others, she was quite upset by this and felt intimidated so we were just about go somewhere else then one of the gang shouted "Yeah, you better keep walking, pussy holes." With this me and my mate looked at each other and he said "Thats it" we turned around and started walking towards them, they went like shit off a shovel! Funnily enough they'd been doing this earlier to someone else, who we knew, and they were walking down the road that the chavs were running up so both of us kept walking, we had them stuck. After a bit chatting and the fact that me mate needed a shat, we let them do one and put the frighteners on. Revenge, great tool.

the simple fact is that most Chavs/Townies are idiotic mindless wankers who cause trouble and dislike anyone different. Im not saying every chav/townie is like that, but in most areas around the country , there are these idiots. I know some chavs that are decent ppl , but that doesnt make up for the rest of them. We've had so much trouble in our village with underage drinking by chavs (some skaters,goths and others usually do it privately) and nearly all vandalism is traced back to a chav, nearly all the drug dealers are chavs. Anyway there arnt just goths,skaters and townies/chavs around, there are people who dont fit into any of these catagories
