Townie (scum) 

The townie is fabulous. Wait, before you click off, let me explain...
The townie allows us to experience first hand what pre-historic man was like, the overhung brow, the tribes, the never-ending reproducing... fascinating stuff! They spend their days preying on so called 'weaker' species such as goths and moshers (i say weaker because we don't feel the need to hang out in groups of 100 just to feel safe), and when they tire of the chase (which isn't very long seeing how much they smoke) the scavenger instinct comes through, and the townie will steal money or food of another prey, ie OAPS and 5 year olds. Naturally this will be done in the large group, as the townie will not attack on it's own. Science tells us that this is how the pre-historical neanderthals behaved, now we have the unique opportunity to study them first hand. Hooray for townies!!
Townie 1: 'ey mate, wossat shit y'go'?
Townie 2: Nickt i' offa kid bruv.
Townie 1: Mate, you're wel' 'ard innit!
Goth walks by.
Townie 1: Oi mate, look a' that goff, he's wel' ashin' for it inne?
Townie 2: Yeah bruv, les go beat 'im up innit!
Townie 1: Na mate, wait til the crew get 'ere, 'ee mite curse us or summat.
Over the last few years, have spread out from the outskirts of London and have infested every town and city in England.

Destroy the education of anyone who is unfortunate enough to share a class with them by constantly arguing with the teacher and talking really loudly about how they "got reet pissed t'weeken' like"

God forbid anyone who dares to glance in their general direction, for you are sure to be knifed by some distant relative's friend

The money they get from benefit's gets spent on the latest mobile phone, with the newest polyphonic ringtone and stupid little screensaver graphic. They happily spend hours chatting away on them slowly frying their tiny minds.

They also have absoloutely no chance of doing anything successful in life, except if they manage to buy a lucky scratchcard, or sue their local council because they tripped up on a broken paving slab down in the ghetto
"yeah mate"
"what ya' chatting about"
"im gonna cut ya"
"yeah, but no, but yeah but no but yeah but no but, shut up"

A term used by locals in New England towns to distinguish themselves from the hordes of tourists who flood their towns every summer. Townies are not necessarily natives, just the working class citizens of a New England tourist town.

Unlike Townies in a college town, Townies in a tourist town hold the term in high regard.
We hang out at Geno's because it's a townie bar.

Townie's avoid the Old Port (Portland Maine) in the summer because of all the inlanders and Mass-holes are always asking for directions.

Townie losering

When a girl stays complacent with an alcoholic townie despite previously held wishes to do something with her life.
"Hey, didn't she go in to the Peace Corp?"
"No, she gave up on that idea once she started townie losering with some 30 year old alcoholic who lives with his parents."

Social rejects who hang around in groups of 10-50.

Males often seen wearing dirty, worn out rockport boots, burberry socks with luminous green adidas tracksuit bottoms tucked into them, a burbery cap and a nike hoodie over the top (with the hood being worn up), coated with a can of lynx. the hair is gelled into a solid quiff, normally dyed blonde.

Females vary between two types. Type one: the tramp.

The tramp wears similar clothes to the male, if not the same, except topped off with a "great value!" gold necklace from elizabeth duke at argos, often with a clown pendant. 4-16 gold creoles will also be worn in the ears, and a large tacky belly-button piercing is necessary. Type two, the tart wears the same jewelerry except adds 60 grams of orange, blue and pink make up, a pair of tight jeans with "babe" or "angel" written on the ass (only £3 from the local market) and a t-shirt with a similar phrase on it. This is topped off with a pink or baby blue caridigan with "EST 1980" or "TEAM" written across the front in huge white letters. The hair is pulled back into an abnormally tight bun which pulls their skin so much that they cant move their face, other than to chew some stolen wrigleys extra from the local corner shop (oh no sick man).

The music can vary from dance, to pop, to rnb and hip-hop eg Sean Paul, Mis-teeq, Beyonce Knowles, 50 Cent etc. Anyone who does not listen to this music is instantly labelled as a "freak". Same goes for the clothes.

To find a townie, I suggest you look in the following places: bus shelters, mcdonalds, park benches, phone boxes, outside corner shops, and anywhere is the general area of a rough council housing estate.

Communicaing with townies is often difficult considering the fake jamaican accents and unnecessary amounts of slang. Here are a few common phrases to get you started:

Fock ya mom - I have a pinner.
Mo' fockin cuzzen'll fockin batta ya - I would fight you but my 600 grams of hair gel havent dried yet.
Nah man stink - You've offended me.
Sick (pronounced sick-AH) - Word used to describe something of townie approval.

They often have nicknames such as:

Gazza
Tezza
Shaz(za)
Kez(za)

You can witness these on various lampposts and bus shelters throught Great Britain.
Townie: Oooom ya fockin lookin' at mate!!! *spits*
Innocent passer-by: I wasn't.
Townie: OH NO! Stink!
Innocent passer-by: 0o'

Generally people living in South Mumbai (Bombay) are addressed by this term. From a geographical perspective this is south of dadar.
Townies are supposed to be generally well off compared to other Mumbai-ites and have better educational qualifications than the rest of the city residents. They are also known for their affinity to western culture, affluent lifestyle & fake american accents.
It will be very difficult to date her, she is a townie!
