Title: Chavs at large
Post by: on July 10, 2005, 09:09:55 pm

Had to chuckle today.  On my way back from a picnic we passed a pub and outside were 30 pairs of couples who were all more or less identical. The blokes were shaven headed; some lobster-backed, others bevested.  The women all wore white skirts and had pig-tails.  At least that's how I saw it, still fondly recalling my rocket and vine-ripened tomatoes.

I've forgotten what they call those really tight pony tails - something like chavs facelifts? 

Still wondering about the 'pairs of couples' Bounty but laughed at the image.  There are a lot like that on the beach here at the moment.

Live and let live Bounty - whilst i agree that some forms of life are lower than others we must be careful not to allow ourselves to be accused of snobbery... actually bollocks to it. Be superior and be proud of it!

A Peckham facelift

When I lived in Nottingham I saw this girl I thought must have had cancer as she was bald. It was only when I got closer that I realised she wasn't bald at all - her hair was just so tightly scraped across her scalp that she looked it!

Chavism, it feels sort of wrong but soooo good 



BTW if anyone has any Chav problems then all you need to do is ask auntie...

Did anyone (n e wun) see the programme on Channel Four last night about the British Working Classes? The chav problem was posed.

It was really interesting - but I think he missed the point about why some white working classes have ended up at the bottom of the pile. It's because they are too lazy to work their way to the top. They don't subscribe to education as a form of improvement and development and they blame everyone else for their poor position in life. First it was the blacks, then the Asians and now it's Asylum Seekers - they are always watching out for who they think will snatch what they think is theirs but they don't see the need to work hard for it.

A good analysis Julie.
