To me it all sounds like elitist bull crap. Culture shift happens, you have to deal with it. The same sort of thing has been happening for a long time here in the states. Nowadays when I go to the mall a noticeably large portion of the people would be described as "chavs," as the website put it. It only became noticeable to me in the past 2-3 years I suppose. While I wouldn't generally run with that sort of crowd, I think it's something akin to racism when you detest someone so much just for the things they do to fit in, etc. Granted you may not like it but why waste your time talking about it. Move on. Hell, in my college town there are "townie" hicks that we make fun of but I'm not about to go out and make a website denouncing them for being themselves. |

Well, it's seems fairly low based on chavscum.co.uk because some of the pictures I looked at simply looked like ordinary (i.e. nonaffluent) people who probably have a [perceived as] substandard accent. With regards to blacks here, it's kind of stupid when you criticize someone for the way they talk. When a black guy talks like a thug, he gets judged, when he talks like a white guy, they wonder why he's trying be like a white guy. As though he's expected to talk with an ebonics-esque accent. |

Why use labels, some "Townies" are nice people, who just need to be guided in the right direction, ok so muost of them are contemptuous human beings who are really nasty to everyone but they'll always be people like that. Instead of wasting time hating people, why not just worry about those you love | |||

Yeah, but I don't think I actually get what a townie is either. Even after the webpage. I think I'll leave this one to the people in the UK, obviously it makes more sense to you than it does to me. |

I think we should round all of them up and send them to the moon. I haven't met one that is a decent friendly human being. Popular Chav activities include: 1) Spitting 2) Swearing 3) Verbaly abusing people 4) Driving around in shitty cars with five exhausts 5) Or just sitting in them with all their mates if they can't afford petrol Classicly, like their cars, these people have self glorified disfunction. They wouldn't know a hard days work or a pleasant manner if it came up and fucked them up the arse. |

I'm not entirely getting it either, but from their celebpage, it somewhat reminds me of a group of people found in every highschool. I think. <<; |
