Brit Tribe: CHAVS PART DEUX

Excellent definition of Chav by Wikipedia: Chav is a derogatory slang term in popular usage throughout the UK. It refers to a subculture stereotype of a person who is uneducated, uncultured and prone to antisocial or immoral behaviour. The label is typically, though not exclusively, applied to teenagers and young adults of white working class or lower-middle class origin. Chav is used for both sexes; a male chav may sometimes be referred to as a chavster (FYI: I LOVE THIS TERM) and a female as a chavette (EVEN BETTER!). A more complete list of synonyms can be found in the Derived and Similar Terms section below. It is similar to the United States terms white trash and trailer trash or the Australian bogan Response to the term has ranged from acceptance to criticism that the term is a new manifestation of classism.

Some fun chav acronyms:
Council Housed And Violent
Council Housed And Vile
Council House Assault & Violence
Council House Associated Vermin
Council House Adolescent Violence
Council House Adidas Victim

Chicken Hats Are Virtuous...ok I made that one up.

BritBoy's guide to spotting a Chav:

Are they wearing sportswear?
More specifically adidas tracksuit bottoms?
Wait, is there more than one of them?
Are they forming a strange herd much like human buffalo?
Is Burberry involved?
Even better fake Burberry?
Oh my god! fake Burberry cap?
Are the girls hair pulled back so tight that they appear startled or deformed?
Do they at all resemble vicky pollard?

Im afraid you are in the presence of a group of chavs, more commonly known as a chavgaggle..ok I made that up too
