"Chavs"

If you haven't heard of "chavs" before, you should read up on them now. A debate was held in London about whether there were social classes besides "chavs" in England. It allegedly has nothing to do with race! Ahhhhh, that's nice, taking guilt-free pleasure looking down at the lower classes of other countries.

ive seen that chavscum sight before, but the first time i heard of it was actually an article in the the new york times magazine sometime last winter. the article defined burberry-wearing people as the (potential) epitome of 'chav.' (are you listening, fishstix? jk..) go figure.

like to point this link out: http://leninology.blogspot.com/2005/12/chavs.html

one of my liked blogs, discusses the trend. I tend to agree that it's a pretty horrid cut at the working class, even if they do look silly.
