Sorry to but in, but what's all this talk of 'chavs'?

This site turned into a enclave for middle-class tossers or what?

lol

i live on a council estate, have a sh*t minimum wage job (NOT mcdonalds, burger king or similar), would find it extremely difficult to describe myself as middle class, tbh!

when i say chav (fair do's i'm stereotyping, but...) i refer to the tracksuit & burberry cap wearing twats who see fit to be anti-social, plenty of them where i live

actually, it's nothing to do with how they dress just how they behave.

[buzzingtalk]

snap, i fit all the chav criteria -

council housing - yes
adult - yes
vermin - to some

but i wouldnt class myself as one of them. certainly not middle class, im well proud to slum it.

a chav to me can be from any social status, though they do steriotypically come from the lower class, but round my way a lot of the middle class are proper chavs. a real chav is

tracksuits!!!!
too much fake jewelly from romford market
trainers that well not worth what the price is
yobbish behaviour
no respect
attitude problems
just shit, really

then theres people who look like chavs, but who dont have chav mentality. i have a few freinds like this, who yes i do take the piss out of, but they well safe, innit



ahem. i did see a bunch of chavvy lookin people, i think they were more pikey, but that was on the friday night/sat morning at id spiral, looked proper drunk being all abusive to the poeple around them callin people hippes, evident fence hoppers

Exactly, chavdom is about attitude not class.

to be fair i stopped going because it's like jumping thru hoops just getting in, with OR without extras .... i don't like being treated like cattle. but then they made it camping. i wouldnt dream of camping there. let's just say, it's a vague concern leaving your tent unattended at glade... but i would guess it's a major concern to walk away from it at gg.
and whats all this security checks inside! between the camping & the music.. wtf!!! is it not good enough that, once you're on site, you & the general public are safely away from each other, they have to do this? beggars belief it really does.

but back to the chavs: when theyre not being asbo, they are like circus acts! they keep the 1980's craze of BMX alive! never understood that.. a tiny kids bike with no gears... for going to work / community service on. oh deary me.

Anybody been Creamfields? Thought i would give it a whirl this year because it's moved to Cheshire plus me and my mate have forked out £107 each for the Hospitality tent to see Hooky play a New Order set. No Chavs in there methinks.

GG sounds utterly horrendous if you read all this..... shame cos I like good old fashioned trance and some of the videos on DSI look ace.

i wanted to go a few times.

i went to uproar in mk a couple of times & lets say, some folk of the chav variety, who just happened to be from birkenhead (:roll: - sorry, that's just coincidence) kind of decided it for me. i know you shouldn't stereotype & make decisions like this based on a few people but there are always other options so i made my choice.

I went to it on the Saturday, some photos here if anyone's interested http://www.djpromoter.com/news.html?newsid=34

If you think GG is chavvy then you should try checking out an outdoor dance festival near Glasgow (where I come from) We call the wee bastards 'neds' up my way.

It was after you'd gone through the ticket gate and initial security check that the sniffer dogs appeared. I watched some guy bedecked in cyber gear get caught by the sniffer dogs. He obviously thought he'd made it in when suddenly pooch has a subtle sniff around his ankles and 2 drugs cope appear from nowhere in to lead him away, leaving his girlfriend standing. So I guess that was his day ruined before it had even started. Although some might say dressing in cyber gear was deserving enough to be arrested

. Although some might say dressing in cyber gear was deserving enough to be arrested

tut tut

there might just be some cybers on this board, i would beware, haha.

i think the best trancey festival ive done was when gatecrasher did summer sound system in 2002, just after id finished my gcse's, that was amazing, no hassle, everyone loving the vibe, i lost my bag and it was handed in at the end

I went to that one - was skint. Never had so much fun on 4 pints of cider!
