Default Am I a chav??!?

Met a guy in the Shell station on the Ewell bypass. I don't really recognise him, but he says - "Hey, Damian" I look over, and he looks kind of familiar - you know - like you should know them.

Then, he says "So, are you a chav or not then??"

Either it was one of you boobynet guys, or I'm going mad....

well, the guy in the photo is a chav....why?

1) big chain - so so chav - chains that size are for bicycles, motorbikes, and cams.
2) baseball cap

Never understood the big gold chain thing. They really do look so so chav. I think chavs are impressed with the weight & cost of the things, but they really do look $hite.

By the pic you're a chav with an identity crisis.

Lambretta isn't for Chavs as it's too retro, despite being a middlish, cheapish brand.

The baad chain and cap are dead-central Chav City, though.

Despite:

1) Damian shortens his name to Damo
2) He is partial to the wearing of baseball caps
3) Sports a nice fat chain around his neck
4) Wears a big chunky ring
5) Has his eyebrow pierced
6) Sports a smaller chain on his wrist

He does not:

1) Wear sports related tops
2) Have a tattoo (that he has told or shown us at work)
3) Claim benefit
4) Drive a Nova
5) Does not have a daughter called Kylie!

He may dress like a chav!! But his grasp of the English language, attitude, mentality, morals and standards are that of a very well brought up chap!

To answer the original question, no you aren't a chav.

Chavs don't know they are chavs and it wouldn't occur to them to even ask, much less care.

I know people who wear baseball caps who are at the opposite end of the social spectrum to chavs. I also know people that wear big neckchains who certainly aren't chavs.

If you've never said "I ain't done nuffink", you probably aren't a chav.

More than enough chav-style modifications to swing the balance over to chavdom. If you're not a ned why the hell dress like one???

You look like a wannbe chav to me, which IMHO could be worse than a fully paid up memeber of chavness.

All of the above

However, there is some background to all of this!

I spent most of my childhood in rural Peckham (no, really!) so all my mates at school were chavs. Then, I moved to Norwood (far too close to Croydon!) where there is a sizeable chav population. Now, I live in Sutton.

Its inescapable, y'get me bruv?

Wicked.

But thats the bit I just don't get. I've been a South Londoner all my life except for a 4 year excursion to Hertfordshire, I've got the accent but I don't talk like a MTV waanabe gangsta rap star

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but is chav becoming a national 'word' or is it only on s/n?

p.s. I think Damian looks like a chav.
