Chavs: The Plague of Britain
At the bottom of this article, there’s a great little tale about some trouble-seeking chavs who get their comeupance.
I must confess, currently I absolutely abhor chavs, I feel a rudimentry, violent hatred for the scum.
Milton Keynes is a great city, out of all the places I’ve lived, I like it the best. I’ve lived in Croydon, Suffolk, Herefordshire, Bristol and Aldershot. Actually I liked rural Herefordshire best, but I can’t live there yet, there’s not enough employment opportunity.
It is great for driving (no traffic, fast roads), cycling (cycle paths everywhere), walking (plenty of parks and green areas), shopping (essentuials and luxuries), going out, and more little things, like the way the countryside is never far away.
It is getting too chavvy though.
Achieving nothing of any use, they fail their way through school with an end goal of living off benefits to fuel their careers in graffiti.
My taxes pay for these useless 12 through 19 year olds to litter and vandalise the town. But worst of all is the way they hang around in abusive, intimidating groups in public discourses. Even a bunch of 12 year olds can be intimidating if you’re by yourself and there’s 20 of them. I think the thing is I don’t understand them. It doesn’t fit when you see a 12 year old, smoking, and wearing a “what yer looking at?” expression. That kind of behaviour is just doesn’t fit with how I think about people, what’s to understand? Lack of understanding leads to uncertainty; I walk a different route.
I blame society and the Government, these louts have no respect, no work-ethic and nothing to do. Someplace, sometime our education system failed us and nowadays we spawn endless numbers of these good for nothing shits.
I feel somewhat ashamed that I felt better after reading the story I linked to. I think I have a problem, or perhaps my intolerance makes me no better than them. Whatever, I can’t stand it, I’m moving country, or maybe to some quiet rural spot.

I’m not in the UK, but i’ve seen plenty of anti-chav sites. I have to say, just from photos of them, I had the same impression that you’ve developed from first-hand knowledge. Where’s an elephant gun when you need one?
erk July 1st, 2006 at 15:03if it makes you feel better, it’s not any different in germany either. just that i could understand their pervert german slang better than the average chav’s english.
i just wonder wether i never noticed them as a kid or this subculture really just recently developed…
blaming the government won’t help much, though. this is a real homemade-problem. society changed quite a bit, most parents can’t afford spending as much time with their kids as we used to enjoy quite a few years ago. kids are frustrated with the outlook for their life and the media helps bombarding them with bad news and showing things they can’t afford.
whatsoever, i believe in darwinism and therefore it can only be a temporary problem

Aaaa, thanks for the kiss
Max Howell September 1st, 2006 at 10:44give me just two seconds as PM and i’ll end chavs for ever.
the answer?
work or die.
Mad Jack on Global Attack September 7th, 2006 at 20:30I’m from MK - and it’s not unique unfortunately the scum is gaining as it reproduces at a rate about 2x the rate of people who contribute to society. Most Chavs are up the duff and on benefits by 17 yrs old whereas most working/professional couples have their first baby in their early thirties. Also the chavettes will have had several kids by the time they are in their twenties whereas the working/professional couples will stop at probably 2 kids by the time they’re in their late 30’s. Therefore Chavscum have twice the amount of progeny brought up in the benefit culture being supported in the future by half the amount of working progeny of working/professional culture people. Something will give
Nick November 9th, 2006 at 23:50Hi i really dont likr chavs they give people of my age a bad name i mean whats the point in being a chave smoking drinking taking drugs your just throughing your life away if your one.I am a respetabel 13 year old gir i dont smoke drink and have never seen drugs never mind tacking them. i have a life and goals for it i mean am an army cadet for the royal artillery and when am older am going to join the army lets just say its better than hanging around n street corners

CHAVETTE February 13th, 2007 at 20:55Yay, I always hoped to attract this kind of comment
Max Howell February 14th, 2007 at 10:57for the chavette twat SPEAK ENGLISH OR FUCK OFF OUT OF THE COUNTRY!!
FrAnKiE March 12th, 2007 at 22:25Can’t say I feel the same anymore. I look at them and think they are pretty sad, and it annoys me that I basically pay for them to sit around taking the piss out of me. But I don’t really relate to my statement any longer, which I think is a good thing.
Max Howell March 13th, 2007 at 7:52well wtf youve just all sast and slated a whole generation because of the way the dress and perhaps if the government helped these kids with a decent eductaion instead of excluding them and putting them on the streets with no future to work for then theyed be contributing.
jodie March 16th, 2007 at 11:32do you know how much help their isnt for kids with parents on benifits, nowhere for them to go and they cant pay for higher education.
they wear trackies for comfort and because they are cheap but when is someone going to help them earn the money to pay for better. i keep hearing 17, pregnant, dole, council flat, what right do you have to decide if that girl is worthy she could have been raped orr had a job you dont know. i am fully aware that there are wasters but its discrimination to call them all chavs i see plenty of goths and greebos fraudently claming benefits.
benefits are there to help people and most people are perfectly legitimate.
max howell with a name like tht u think theyre sad raggos mate my mates in pen ennit but on road im clever nd i goin sumwhere but in the mean time i gonna turn ma dole in drugs to sell make more money then whoy ill b top o the tree m8 u need ta b careful u dnt get clapped up
jodie March 16th, 2007 at 11:35It annoys me that I work hard, and yet some people basically do nothing all day and I’m paying for it.
But yeah I am guilty of generalising, and as I said two comments up, I don’t feel the same about all this crap anymore.
I’ve no idea what you are saying in the second comment, seriously, use punctuation.
Max Howell March 16th, 2007 at 11:56Erm, for everyone who has any sympathy for the chavs saying that they genuinely need benefits, they’re misunderstood, etc I can confidently say that that is just a load of “shizzle”
Chav Killer April 18th, 2007 at 20:43There are plenty of job oppertunities around which means that they could be spending what they are earning and not eating up benefits
It’s not that they can’t AFFORD to go for further education, they just can’t be arsed. I can say this looking straight in their faces because I was brought up in a council estate in “da hood”, fincancially disadvantaged but I am currently a healthy (almost) straight A student in 6th Form working towards a place for a degree in Computer Science at Cambridge. These Chavs need to be educated and taught to CARE, and if they have crappy family backgrounds, a) these crappy parents have no right to be parents and the government should regulate, or b) schools and government policies should educate them
I have to completly agree with schools for excluding crappy students at school. They will be a distraction to others, and in most cases, intellectual deficiencies will not let them progress too far into their academic progress, but they should be rounded up and placed in a special helping institution away from their shitty parents who are probably at a pub getting pissed at 1 in the afternoon and getting in punchups
My parents don’t get “chav” benefits but they probably get less than these parents who live on benefits, (I mean like ULTRA LOW) which is why my current location is a ghetto slum, but that hasn’t stopped them bringing me up propper, THERE IS NO EXCUSE BECUASE I CAN RELATE TO THESE SCUM I’VE BEEN THERE DONE THAT
so jodie and chavette you can both stfu you fecking chavs you’re both ignorant and naive and just use shitty circumstances as reason for chavs not progressing anywhere in life, I can imagine you both now looking like your scummy peers, baby blue rip-off trackies from head to toe, massive plastic gold sprayed hoops a metre in diameter from argos, huge belly hanging out, and sequins on your fat lardy arses saying random shiit like pineapple I mean cmmon man wtf
And when you post, please don’t try to talk like you’re from “da hood”, i is from da reel getto frm da endz of norf weezy n me n my crw wil com fukin batta u lyk shiiiiitt,
i sincerly appologise to the normal viewers of this board, I was a bit aggrivated and I promise not to post any more blinglish here as long as I live
I would like to add for security that I am no “goff” “mosher” “grunja” I generally like to go with the “gangsta” fashion, listening to hip hop and R&B because that’s who i am BUT IM NO CHAV SO PLEASE DON’T MISUNDERSTAND
CHAVS are the scum of the earth. They cant spell they are ignorant. Bad fashion sense ,they are little people with little minds who live in run down rat infested council estates. They try and live and dress beyond their means. which means the light bill will get passed by so some stupid ass chavette can wear some designer label they cant afford. They are sad scumbags who have to take a piss at others to make themselves feel good. I am sick to death of these less than human wastes of space. Most if not all were born poor. will live poor and die poor! How anyone can be proud to call themselves a chav is beyond my total understanding of reason. WHY ON EARTH..WOULD you chavette want to be proud of being poor uneducated lazy shiftless cider drinking cant afford anything because i rather sponge off those who do work have to wear cheap gold rings and burb..to think and act like im somebody cool wastes of space? your sad disgusting and should be wiped off the face of the earth. I AM NOT A GOFF mosher or fucking skater . i am a gothmetaler notice the correct spelling who is pissed off at your stupid blind reasons to hate us. AND as for thinking your from the QUOTE ON QUOTE from the hood or anything else like that .. that is shit if you want to visit a real hood i should send you to my native land USA LA. i would drive you to compton or maybe watts perhaps south central where there are real gangbangers that would send you back to your cheap council estates crying like a fucking twat you are back to mommy! tho i dont condone gangbanging in any way shape or form but those people are not playing. its not cool or funny. all you two balled bitch chavs who think your so tough i fucking dare you to spend an hour in one of those HOODS in LA. you wouldnt last a few mins.
metalgothwoman May 15th, 2007 at 21:52Oh please learn to paragraph and punctuate your text.
Max Howell May 16th, 2007 at 13:57THATS all you have to say??? your a looser.. lOOSER. i bet your a fucking chav. fucking looser. did you notice? that there are no fucking hate goth sites? or hate metalers site? only hate chav sites. why is this do you ask?

So what if I want to go out on Friday and get hammered and maybe have a fight. Me and my boys are just a bunch of lads doing what we want. That’s why I’ve set up a blog to let you all know what I’m all about. It’s time people started hearing what I’ve got to say. Come and have a read of Lee Fist: Diary of a Modern Man http://leefist.blogspot.com/

dr lean March 3rd, 2008 at 3:27u know what i came from Dagenham london im 16 years old going 17.IAM NOT A CHAV. im as about as opposite from a chav as you can get and i grew up around chavs and wannabe gangsters.
jonno March 8th, 2008 at 21:25just a clue to my differences i wear normal jeans, all stars and plain t shirts or long sleeve shirts. i have long hair (which ive been threatened for so many times)
not fuckin baggy pants. 50 cent? huh fuck thatled zeppelin and jackie wilson are the best. its strange having grown up in such an environment and come out different from the standard scum is amazing because peer pressure to become a chav has been there 4 me the whole time. WHY THE FUCK DO SO MANY PEOPLE FOLLOW FUCKIN HIP HOP CULTURE FOR FUCKS SAKE? be different from popular thug culture, in dagenham it is not pretty what we should do is throw these white wannabe gangstas into downtown new york or la and see how long they would last for. enough said
i agree with u johnno!!! y the fuck do people try so hard to fit in that they have 2 become fuckin anti-social manslags with a vocabulary that dont go past the words INIT! or BREDRIN! they dont give a fuck about anybody else n dont have no respect for anybody! well you know wot all you chavs…u all think this world is all about takin drugs, smokin, drinkin n avin sex with just about any girl u see! well i hope all these hard drugs n ur slaggy nature gives u a world of pain CUZ THATS WOT U ALL FUCKIN DESERVE! u fuckin take the piss the lot of ya u fuckin chav scum!

bobby April 9th, 2008 at 20:17chavs are shit at graffiti , u need o be good at art to do it.
the rest of the text about chavs is fantastic! , just the part where u thnk all those fabulous standing-out graffitis are done by fucking shit bags , it makes me absalutely sick.
bobby April 10th, 2008 at 8:28run p to any chav and ask them to do graffiti after buying the book ‘ Graffiti World ‘ , read about them in the book and then tell a chav to do some. Good luck lol , but remember , the rest of the text was good -> I HATE CHAVS TO THE BONE , THEYRE TRYING TO DESTRYO THE THEME OF GRAFFITI/MODERN ART.
i think we should just be humans , no chavs , n goths m i mean why cant we all just get along ffs… just sad fightin over Brand of ur nickers ffs..
bobby April 10th, 2008 at 8:37hyaa i fink evry1 shud be CHAVVS:P and NO FUKIN GOTHS OR EMOS!! HAHA…LMAO!!
sarah miletr April 30th, 2008 at 10:36all yuu goths and emos go and slit ure wrists and die!!!!!!!!!!!!
sarah miler April 30th, 2008 at 10:37chavs are good at graffiti!! actually
sarah miler April 30th, 2008 at 10:37Yeah, they can spell the word gay really well can’t they? you fucking retard.
Also, the correct word is “the” not “da”, what the fuck is wrong with you? do you speak in text speech also?
Sooner or later everyone is going to get extremely fed up with the situation of chavs and eventually bit by bit the English public will say enough is enough! We are a very polite nation, how many times have you been on a bus where a chav is blarring out shitty music on thier mobile phone and everyone just hums and sighs and gives dirty looks but never says anything, then one person eventually has a go and then everyone will chip in, ticking time bomb I think.
What we need is another war where we can send them all off to be cannon fodder, I would love to witness the grand theft auto generation trying actualy combat, you would all probably get shot in the leg then look for health packs on the floor.
Alex May 8th, 2008 at 10:10Thank you Alex, best comment yet
And best comment for ages. This post is almost my most commented, but the quality of responses is unbearably intolerant and unintelligible.
Max Howell May 8th, 2008 at 13:01I agree, i hate chavs loads round where i live, always have to walk alternate streets to get to the bus stop to go to WORK!!! yes work lol,
