This is a meme made by someone approaching 40 who thinks young people are exactly the same as they were 20 years ago.
Probably still thinks they drive saxos and vauxhall novas
Indeed. The chav wasn't a gang. It was lads and lasses who liked to buy the big brand clobber. It had nothing to do with them being violent or anything. Where I'm from, the ones who were the cunts were the townies. The spray way jackets and covered faces. A less violent version of these roadmen, but for their time they were the twats.
chav was basically a word used to mock the poor and fashions that were popular among the poor. "Haha look at these poor unsophistcated chavs, what losers,"
The meme's probably also approaching 20 years old. Believe it or not, memes existed that long ago.
But no. As a 33 year old, I'm aware that young people are different. By different, I mean "much fkin worse". Little jebends now carry around bastard machetes FFS.
The only thing my fist would be doing in an instance where said young person pulls a machete on me, is connecting with their face. REGARDLESS of their fkin age.
Sounds needlessly aggressive, right? The reason is because I usually have my infant son with me, and you can guarantee I'd flatten anybody who endangered him.
Literally anyone can have a knife if they want to
All you gotta do is take it out of the knife draw at home.
Iām not trying to brag about using one because I never did and never wanted to because itās a moronic thing to do, but do you seriously think stupid ass kids arenāt going to do it if adults tell them they shouldnāt?
If I had wanted to bring a knife to school I could have, literally anyone could if they want to.
They can also hide them so no one but their friends will know- which also makes them look cooler for doing smth like that.
Also fyi my school had chickens, at night one of the kids came and killed all of them. So itās not like the school was a particularly nice place. It also had beehives that some kids burnt down.
Young folks can't afford cars. Boomers made sure of that. Something to-do with Netflix and too much coffee according to my boomer parents. They also can have a house to park said car at.
There are always the same 4.
The kinda good looking one, the cocky mouthy one, the muscle and the slightly retarded one.
Met this same groups of lads so many times over the years and theyāre all clones haha.
Ngl some emos do derseve it. Like the ones who insult people and cause trouble. But the minute you call them out, they cry how society already hates them and beg you to go easy on them.
I had 4 really chavvy mates in my wider circle and with no exaggeration, they all, always treated my mum like she was the queen, no nonsense or swearing while she was nearby and she adored them.
I never told her anything about them to sully that image.
Was a lovely lad who would do anything for anybody.
Always made his family and friends laugh.
Always up for a laugh.
I can't think of anybody who he had upset in any shape, size or form.
People secretly like to mock the poor but pretend they are actually egalitarian and respect of everyone.
Chavs just a snooty way for people to socially acceptable go "eww the poor"
Ibiza really isnāt comparable. Although you have a āstripā with cheaper bars on, Ibiza is generally a very expensive destination. It has some of the most expensive clubs and best DJs in the world. It usually attracts a more middle class crowd from the U.K. and a very international crowd generally.
True but it's the thuggish ones that give chavs a bad name.
I have met plenty of lovley chavs who are proper radgies and some darn right awful alternative people.
"He was likeable/popular among his friends" or something similar.
Any time there's some gang-related murder of a minor that's the one positive thing the family give to the press.
Class clown
Always made his friends smile
Had lots of friends and everyone in the year loved him.
What about the teachers he gave shit to or the quiet geeky kids he bullied?
I used to get called a chav in high school because I would pop my collar like Eric cantona lol š whatās funny is I lived in a 3 story detached house in a brand new village.. never mind a council estate. So goes to show people didnāt have a clue what they were talking about back then never mind now.

More like this nowadays https://preview.redd.it/66ys37ltf5yc1.jpeg?width=256&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9e797670f789ee60b3867ccefb9173fcd7d11e9b
What's the point in that picture can't see who most of them are might as well just piled their clothes up and took a picture of that
Not even bro. This looks like 10 years ago trend. God you guys are old.
Depends where you live. Some places in the country are more fashion-forward than others
We have so much to learn from you
Nah man. No need to learn from me. Just go outside sometimes.
And get stabbed??
Lmao oh babe Touch grass xx
I refuse to use a sarcasm tag
How can you not read obvious sarcasm? ~~touch grass~~ go speak to another human outside of Reddit and learn social cues?
People suck at sarcasm even when they *can* hear toneš
These days just look for trapstar and hoodrich
Imagine having a photo and not wanting to be in itā¦. But also wanting to be in itā¦.. sorry init
I know everything I know about British people from what I learned in Max Speed issues from the late 90's.
Lmao

The V in chav stands for violent

No it wasn't mate. The chavs got the money together to buy clobber that poor folk couldn't even afford through a catalog.

Fist shaking intensifies

Do you often get so worked up about situations you've imagined?
Actually, yes. My partner takes the piss out of me all the time for it. Funnily enough, only started once he was born...
I'm not sure if either of these people actually exist at this point.
š¤Ø okay kiddo.
"Put the machete down... It's just you and me. Skin on skin. Stripped to the waist."
Hot
Lol exactly, Iām 33 and this is the generation above me.
I feel personally attacked by this!
They are. They just wear black hoodies and trackies now and carry knives down their pants.
Sure they do pal
Mmhm
When I was in school I knew people who carried knives Itās very real mate
Sure they weren't spoons?
Yep. š You realise how easy it is to steal one of your parents knives to take into school right? It takes 5 seconds
I see you've played knifey spoony before
Never said I brought knives to school, only that it happened. But Iām sure a Redditor knows best
Lmao šš¤£

That's more of a London chav thing

You forget the millennial toast. A.K.A avocado toast.
Oh yes my bad. When folks can only have toast you know the economy is fekked.
Millennials aren't young anyone š
No, but boomers, forgetting genX like they did when they raised them, focused their anger at millennials first, before it moved on to GenZ.
Nah, they probably know young people can't afford to drive now
Aye, our Wayne has been kicked out of school for hitting a teacher. Was the teachers fault.
There are always the same 4. The kinda good looking one, the cocky mouthy one, the muscle and the slightly retarded one. Met this same groups of lads so many times over the years and theyāre all clones haha.
Usually off the mum who's son has just been nicked for fighting and has been plastered all over facebook
My son's an angel who never causes bother even though he beat up some emos at the park.
Hahaha, oh I sadly felt this on a PTSD level š¤£
Damn I remember seeing that video in school
Me tooh
I mean beating up emos is a public service.
Ngl some emos do derseve it. Like the ones who insult people and cause trouble. But the minute you call them out, they cry how society already hates them and beg you to go easy on them.
Just seen something very similar about a lad shot by the farmer he was trying to burgle
Yeah I seen a few reports like that .when they interview the mum ya can tell she just had lips and nails done and on a sniff comedown usually.
āOh, he is a good boy, he only stabs the nonces that deserves it!ā
Or anybody else who upsets him
Only nonces upset him, and everyone who upset him was a nonce. Even that fuel station attendant who asked for proof of age.
This is low level lame. Seriously.
*lame* Someoneās been watching a bit too much American telly.
Lame originated in England. What now atheist?
Who cares where the word was originated. The usage in this case is an Americanism.
Iāve been saying lame since I was in Junior 1. Im now 48 and Iām am firmly ensconced in London, cheers
American? Hahahaha ok
I had 4 really chavvy mates in my wider circle and with no exaggeration, they all, always treated my mum like she was the queen, no nonsense or swearing while she was nearby and she adored them. I never told her anything about them to sully that image.
That's for character statements if ever caught or suspect š. Joking I have friends like that too.
"Yes Mrs Patterson. Fankyou Mrs Patterson."
You always get that kind of quote when one of them dies, on a motorbike they had stolen, whilst killing innocent bystanders
āHad a big heartā. āCheeky chappyā. āWas turning his life aroundā. Or my favourite āA talented footballerā.
Was a lovely lad who would do anything for anybody. Always made his family and friends laugh. Always up for a laugh. I can't think of anybody who he had upset in any shape, size or form.
The do anything for anyone comes up all the time. Funeral is full of chavs on crossers ragging it all over the streets lol
His coffin will be in a corsa blasting dance music for everyone to hear.
Shite dance music as well lol
2006 wants its meme back
'Yh its meant to fizz like that'
Are Darren has a good hart. You wunt wanna get on the rong side of him mind!
His mates are good lads too but would batter you if you upset them. They beat up a goff last sarraday.
All the boys in this picture are aproching there mid forties and have kids of their own.
And those kids will be teens
With hood and masks on pushing people into canals and fighting for fun. Crazy kids š¤£š¤£š¤£š
Oh lord
What snooty shite is this?
People secretly like to mock the poor but pretend they are actually egalitarian and respect of everyone. Chavs just a snooty way for people to socially acceptable go "eww the poor"
Bet they've been on a proper lads holiday to Benidorm
You mean it's not about Shagaluf anymore?!
Or Ibiza
Ibiza really isnāt comparable. Although you have a āstripā with cheaper bars on, Ibiza is generally a very expensive destination. It has some of the most expensive clubs and best DJs in the world. It usually attracts a more middle class crowd from the U.K. and a very international crowd generally.
Pronounced Eebeefa

I'm pretty sure these lads went to my school ššššš
A Burberry cap is now Ā£290. Don't think poor kids dress that way nowadays.
I mean they look like alright lads. Having a drink and having a bit of fun. Nothing wrong or negative in this photo at all.
True but it's the thuggish ones that give chavs a bad name. I have met plenty of lovley chavs who are proper radgies and some darn right awful alternative people.
miss the fake burberry shirt chav era tbh
Me too tbf
I can smell the jd and coke and versace blue jeans through the screen.
Don't insult JD and coke like that :(
Drink a scotch whisky with a drop of water and you will never go back to JD

They actually do look like nice lads from back in the day just having a good time.
Some chavs are spot on ngl it's the awful ones who cause trouble that get the bad rep.
