Garth 0 Report post Posted February 22, 2005 Fair enough. Calling people Emo is fun if just to see them try and find reasons why they're not Emo. Especially when they're Emo as fuck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted February 22, 2005 what exactly is an emo kid? based on that picture, I know some folks that dress that way (people in their 20s, mind you)...is it just the clothes or is it a personality type as well? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Metal Maniac 0 Report post Posted February 22, 2005 is it just the clothes or is it a personality type as well? If I'm not mistaken, it's not only clothes, but a "woe-is-me" attitude and, well...listening to emo music. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh God yes, Englands youth culture is at current primarly made up of either Emo Kids or Chavs. It's a sad sad truth. Too true. If you go a website like a faceparty it can be totally split down the middle between: Chavs: Who use text speak, list sex and alcohol as their hobbies and always post pictures of a) Their bare torso b) Their cars (Usually Vauxhall Novas with a body kit on it c) Their tatoos. Emo kids: Tend to spell quite nicely, but list their favorite bands in the about me section because they have no personality and have lots of photos of themselves wearing eyeliner. Once you group them, you're basically left with myself and G Money representing the normal kids in Britain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Museite Report post Posted March 3, 2005 Maybe I've been out of the country for so long that I missed it, or maybe I don't associate much with them...but I've never heard of a 'chav'... go figure...

cameron chaos 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2005 Britain is made up of totally generic people What does that even mean? As opposed to brand x people? And if you are looking to group people, what about pop teens, pramfaces, "lads", goths, punk posers, indie kids, scousers... all are around in Britain. And Welsh people aren't normal. Just watch and listen to them. No one that produces that much saliva when talking can be 100% normal. Also, for clarification, these are what chavs look like. So like wiggers, except Nike instead of Sean John. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anorak 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2005 Maybe I've been out of the country for so long that I missed it, or maybe I don't associate much with them...but I've never heard of a 'chav'... go figure... I only recently became aware of this Chav term as well. When I was at school the word was 'dodgeite'. The word Dodge basically meant = Taxdodger/Unemployed/feckless yob etc but became more commonly used to describe a certain area (he/she lives WHERE? I'ts fucking dodge around there you know). As a result, the term 'dodgeite' came about to define you were talking about an individual. Acting like a braindead yob = Dodgeite. A stereotypical dodgeite would have had a baseball cap, big puffa jacket, closely shaved head and been a smoker. East 17 were the official pop group of dodgeite's because they all looked and spoke like one. A Chav seems more image-consciouss and define themselves by their lifestyle rather than just by their disorderly public behaviour at weekends or on the occasional schoolday. I've probably got it all wrong but i'm too old to care anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest frowned Report post Posted March 7, 2005 pramfaces this is without doubt my favourite classification. And here in Middlesbrough, "chav" is more than just an annoying fashion, it's a full on scourge - they are out to simply terrorise people and generally cause trouble. Although they're curiously less brave when seen walking on their own. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
