A chav is kind of a more clothed and paler version of our guideo. Replace Ed Hardy with lots of burberry and you're there.

Well sort of, burberrys out for neds and chavs. It's more lacoste, adidas, henleys, gio goi, skip hats, trainers and bottles of buckfast drinking down local park. Well nowadays anyway. They also usually talk in an over exaggerated accent here, to the point of not understanding them.

As if you'd want to understand them anyway.

WARNING. THE 'c' WORD IS USED HERE.

The best quote EVER in the movies is from Begbie in Trainspotting and apologies in advance for the language used:

'get te fuck ya radge little cunt'

You can't really reply to that can you?

ThePhanastasio 08-03-2011 10:08 PM

I just remembered lame slang that I used when I worked in customer service which constantly got me written up - we were allowed to say "okay", but discouraged from it and urged to say "all right" instead. Anything more slang than "okay" would get you written up and forced to talk with the manager while listening to your calls, which sucked.

The words in question were:
All righty
Okie dokie / Okie doke.

I have no idea why I always say these things on the phone. I never say them in person, I don't believe. On the phone, however, I'm an "okie dokie" machine.

The Batlord 08-04-2011 09:06 AM

So what exactly is so horrible about chavs? I hear every British person on Earth talking **** about them. From pictures they look like douches, but not so different from the millions of other douches on Earth. What makes them such asshats?

Hey I used to do that...

Typical chav phrase in my town:
"Aww yeah I'd flutter the box of dat young one"

Translation:
"I would like to have sex with that girl"

FETCHER. 08-04-2011 10:47 AM

I used to drink down a park, but I was never a tracksuit wearing idiot. Dont judge me, everybody's done it.

And to answer lees question. I don't think there possibly would be a comeback to that. I'd probably drop my arse if someone spoke to me like that :(.

Everybody hates chavs because theyre loud and obnoxious and generally like disrupt everything and anything. They often congregate in their little cleaks and often 'jump' one person so that they have no hope in coming out of the conflict on top. Jumping someone is when like 8 people beat the **** out of you.

The Monkey 08-04-2011 11:52 AM

My favourite British expression has to be "They are getting on my tits", when people annoy you.

Howard the Duck 08-04-2011 07:59 PM

rosie - cup of tea
Sherman Tank - wank
rollcage - road rage

it's basically taking something that is totally different from the original word and using it just because it rhymes with the original

<3 cockney slang.

Dirty 08-04-2011 08:40 PM

Are we all familiar with DUFF?


Designated

Apologies to those who I have offended. It's when there's a girl you're interested in and she has a DUFF. All attractive girls have a DUFF. Me and my brother use this term but my friends haven't picked up on it yet.

FETCHER. 08-04-2011 08:42 PM

Everyone knows what they are but have secret individual jokes surrounding the subject. I just call them fat bastards personally.

Some mo' slang:

Dank: Awesome / Great / Amazing. Can often be used to reference marijuana, e.g. "I got some dank nugs today," but can simple be used to say something rocks, e.g. "Ah, man you got front row seats for the show?! Dank!"

Gank: Combination of grab and yank. To steal. Example: "Dude just ganked my cigarettes. What a tool."

Blitzed/Bombed/Fucked/Destroyed/Wasted/Annihilated/Loaded: Incredibly drunk. Annihilated is my fave to use, as in, "Dude was annihilated last night! He was trying to declare war on the city of Ashland."

I feel you: I am with you / I get that.
1: "I'm so tired of slang."
2: "I feel you."

The fuzz: The police. "Hide the stuff, the fuzz are coming!"

Boss: Awesome. Example: "Dude, that new album is boss!"

Heady: In terms of music, usually means really deep and interesting. In terms of food, usually references something that you ate high which was really awesome, or food stuffs containing cannabis. In terms of everything else, usually just means really cool.
Ex. 1: "Those were some heady jams last night, brah!"
Ex. 2: "I ate some heady goo balls on Phish lot."
Ex. 3: "My bro hooked me up with some heady tickets for the show in August."

Spaced It: Totally forgot about it.
1: Dude! Why didn't you call me back last night?
2: Aw, my bad bro. I totally spaced it.

You're shittin' me: You're not serious / you're messing with me.
1: I just got pulled over going 95 in a 25, and got out of the ticket.
2: You're shittin' me!

Mmm. Personally, I have to concur with jackhammer; "Sloshed" is the veteran drinker's term for getting there. It's describes the ambulatory, auditory, and visual effects of spirits.

Other great euphemisms; pie-eyed, strange, side-ways (<---!!!!), in the bag, bagged, tying one on (for in the process of), hammered, ripped, loaded, wet, strange, straightened out, worshipping, etc.

This - I think - is the best thing of living in a rural area that gets lots & lots of snow. You get snowed in at friends house for a few days, and get an excuse to get drunk. You get snowed in at a country bar, and suddenly becomes an open bar. Really, really great way to form those inky black spots that lurk on the edge of memories.

Nah I was kidding. :) he does seem like a stallion though. I love Dutch people. They look like me.

EvilChuck 08-06-2011 05:30 AM

Boom - attractive
Butters - ugly

@ Il Duce, I've never heard of Roll Cage being used for cockney rhyming.

Some more I know

China Plate - Mate
Loaf of Bread - Head
Plates of Meat - Feet
Mince Pies - Eyes
Mickey Bliss - Piss (as in 'take the piss', becomes 'take the mickey)
Tea Leaf/Leafing - Thief/Thieving

the designers spoke Cockney

FETCHER. 08-06-2011 05:43 AM

Dog and bone - Phone!

Empty = parents on holiday.

Rogue = a random hard on with no explanation (no sexual thought or anything of that nature)

Score = twenty pounds.

A ton = 100 of anything, money, mph.

Charpoi = bed (it's old slang, my papa says it)

Cowp = a run down place

Just ones I thought of whilst in here :).

EvilChuck 08-06-2011 05:50 AM

I know some urban slang, but Jackhammer would hate what it represents judging by his post on the other page.

But anyway:

Peng - attractive
Nang - cool/good
Leng - gun
Skeng - knife

I dont use any of these btw, I just know them.

I thought "Mad" was strictly a Northeast thing. Everytime I have met someone that says it, they are either from New York, New Jersey or Conneticut.

Whenever I use "Mad" it's to say alot of or a crazy amount of.

Ex: It took us mad long to get there.

geez that's a bad example but yeah alot of time w/e.
