Do you have chavs in the US?

If you're unsure of what a chav is take a looky ----->HERE! and check out the 'how to spot a chav' section.

The UK is overrun with these little critters, do you get similar people in the US with their trousers tucked into their socks, etc?
 
Here, I suppose they are called ... w i _ _ _ _ That is, a white person acting sterotypically black. Otherwise, I can't seem to think of any.
 
Britney Spears is the queen of chav. White trailer park trash I suppose would be the chav of the US.

When i read that i assumed you meant chav=some sort of tick. Some do that around here to avoid ticks carrying Lyme disease.

A w i__ ??

It's nothing to do with colour or acting as though you're of a particular colour or race. Since it seems most people can't be arsed to look at the webshite here's a handy set of pointers that dtermine a chav:

  • A chav normally dresses with some kind of burberry pattern item of clothing or an accessory (be it an umbrella or handbag).

    Sportswear is normally worn.

    Ellesse or similar ultra-white trainers are common.

    Rugby socks are normally worn, with the trousers (tracksuit bottoms, commonly white) tucked firmly into them.

    A Jacket with a huuge symbol displaying the brand of clothing (Helly Hanson, etc). A high collar is common.

    Chunky low, low quality jewllery is placed wherever possible about the body. This is in the same vein as the whole 'bling' factor. The girls like big gold looped earrings.

    Often hang out in groups drinking alcopops and starting fights. Vandallism and public disorder offenses are highly common.

    Generally unintelligent but are very vocal.

I'd say about 40% of 14 -> 20yr olds are chavs or have 'chav styling' where I live.

 
oh and the cars!:

Vauhall Nova

Fiestas (actually this attempt is french, but it's got chav styling)

Escorts

Astras

And of course the renault 5, for which I have no link.

Normally these are bought on their last legs but are fitted with some really nasty alloys from the dump and an exhaust the diameter of a jet engine. These cars are then driven round and round a set path around towns until the chavs go for a fast drive and wrap the poor motor around a lamp post at 80mph....
 
Do NOT get me started on chavs... :|
Scurge of England. Remove them, and we prosper. Allow them to continue breeding, and the UK is doomed. Doomed, I tells ya!

Glad I'm not the only one with such contempt for them.

Good god no. I regard them as a plague of society (no, I'm not kidding) that should be wiped out. I've often wondered how one might engineer a virus that attacks chavs only...

You'll need a combination of two viruses, that when put together will cause death in the suspect. Place one on all cheap gold jewellery, and the other in Burberry clothing. e' voila.

Interesting....
Maybe one on alcopops too? Maybe find someone prepared to have a genetic defect introduced into their DNA and then have them father as many chav children as possible?

Of course, repeat ad nauseum...
