This is in relation to Chavs, around here they go by the name of " A Bragg", as in, you can see them all the time in the queue at Braggs with their multitude of kids, getting sausage rolls and cornish pasties in the belief that this is a healthy diet and the so called vegetables in any of these products contributes to their five a day,.

They have lovely adidas/nike/reebok trackuits (all the family), lots of heavy looking bling, a fag on the go, kids named courtney, chantelle, destiny, monroe! more Ipods than i could afford, the latest in mobile phone technology, hair that is slicked into a yank back (you know the one, looks like they have been running and somebody has grabbed hold of their hair and yanked them back).

More make up than the revlon counter in Debenhams, trainers that cost the earth and the obligatory rottweiler/bulldog/mastiff that pulls the pushchair all over the place cos the thing is well on the way to lunacy through not getting fed anything but rare meat.

Boyfriend/husband/current shag is exactly the same but wears his trousers down to his ankles and only appears to know 2 or 3 words, "Innit", "Fuck" (in all its tenses)and geezer.

Sorry, cheepers, all that's making my eyes bleed.

Has anyone got links to all the other OTF chav threads over the last couple of years?

Dogs are carnivores; you knew that, right?

[Guest]

Yeah i knew that but i am not sure they do and that if you continue to feed dogs raw meat, you shouldn't be too surprised if it starts to eat poor little coutney or whomever.

With a bit of luck they'll have been deleted.

What's Braggs? Is it like Greggs?

EIM, yes exactly the same

Wyatt, is that a bad thing or a good thing that your eyes were bleeding, as I have never heard that saying before.

It means he'd like you to have some more punctuation in your post, so that it's readable.

I did put some commas in but point taken, will break it up into paragraphs.

Has anyone noticed these people that I like to call 'Sloane Rangers'??? If it catches on, when the time's right I'm going to launch my next couple of archetypes: the 'Yuppie', and the 'White Van Man'.

Great! We're getting there. Now to make it less hackneyed and sneering.

I can't work out to point out that this post about sneering is quite sneery, without sounding like I'm sneering.

Where did i say that a) they were poor and b)they were idiots.

Walking around in gear that costs approximately £300 and having a pedigree dog (another £600 or so)hardly marks you out as poor and not working for a living hardly makes you an idiot, does it.

So I take it from the general tone of the comments then that I am not allowed to pass comment on my fellow citizens.

Bit hypocritical of you as there is thread going on about what people wear and a lot of you are having a good laugh at what people wear (or don't).

Over the 3 or 4 months or so I have been on this forum, i have seen quite a lot of overt racist language in the guise of writing posts about differing subjects.

So one last thing to say, don't judge me by whatever standards you have for yourself, the piece was meant to be a laugh and not serious.

I thought it was more sniffy and patronising than sneering.

Yeah, course you have.

I think what these folk are saying, cheep, is that you should give us some pointers, to establish whether you're objecting to anything in particular about these Bragg chappies, or just criticising the working class for their fashion sense and lack of graces.

Can you flag up the racist language?

Have you? Blimey, that's rotten. Could you point some of it out?

Ok here we go, now just to put this into context, I was born in an inner city area, my best man was and still is black and when i showed him this he damn near went into a fit. This is overt racism however you want to dress it up (and nor is it funny)
"Two things emerge from this fixture. The first is that, had Trinidad and Tobago somehow won this day, the scenes in such negro strongholds as Notting Hill would have been too much to bear – there would have been gloating, inevitably breeding, and, within a generation, following a demographic shift to their advantage, compulsory limbo dancing in the British Isles. This would not stand, not in Dorset, not in Totteridge. Now, let us press home our advantage. Let us break the Caribbean hold on Notting Hill. Let the bravest of our white citizens, who hold the future of the race at heart, move into this benighted area of West London and establish enclaves there. Perhaps our filmmakers could even make strategically insipid motion pictures, depicting the area as an exclusively white district, a serene backdrop for the romantic caperings of stammering Englishmen."

Oh man.

I mean - there probably is a fair bit of racism here - but really.
