A lower-working class young person, usually an adolescent living in South Manchester, UK. A true Skloid must live in public housing, wear branded sportswear, speak with a strong provincial accent and be poorly educated. Skloids are usually short and slight due to long-term malnourishment. The term is not to be confused with the more pejorative (and recent) 'Chav'; 'Skloid' is just a descriptive term, largely free of malice and social criticism. My first experience of 'Skloid' occurred in 1990, although it is rumoured to have been in use as early as 1980.
'Skloidal' is a commonly used adjective derived from 'Skloid': "What a skloidal kid."

Brian Harvey, formerly of East 17, is an archetypal Skloid; short, affable, uneducated, of blue collar stock and boasting a strong regional accent/dialect: "I fought dere'd be people be'ind trees slippin' you a pizza or summink."

An Anglo-American woman or girl, usually white, with a pronounced sense of personal entitlement. The term usually refers to females under thirty, who have grown up with post-feminist 'rights' along with traditional feminine privileges (exemption from personal responsibility, Draft registration or any kind of criticism).
The Anglobitch usually has a wafer-thin, hypocritical personality, an absurdly narrow world-view and is utterly self-absorbed. She wants equality, but only on her own terms (rights without responsibilities). The Anglobitch has emerged in Anglophone countries because such nations tend to have a repressive, puritanical undercurrent; in consequence, Anglo-American females grow up with an overriding sense of being 'owed' something by the world in general, and men in particular. The Anglobitch is also characterised by offhand racism, homophobia and 'classism' - largely due to the absolute exemption from criticism she enjoys.

Virtually any young female in England, America, Canada, Australia or New Zealand can rightly be called an 'Anglobitch'. The Jury remains out on whether the Anglobitch is the product of Anglo-Saxon culture or some intrinsic personality flaw among Anglo-American females.
