Known in Norn Irn as "steeks" or "spides" these fearsome individuals terrorise the community. Generally you have two types, a "taiggy rebel bawsturt" and an "arenge cont" depending on what estate they live in. Spides can develop as early as 6 and some breeds are even seen until the late twenties. After this most are either in prison or have died from an accident involving a stolen Astra GTE. It is when spides leave thier council estate and enter into civilisation that the public is most at risk. Particularly at risk are those known as "huppys" or "gafeeks" and "skateboarder freaks" are also high on the target list. If these sub cultures are no careful they could get anything from spat upon to gettin thier "balleex nacked in" if they are particular slabbers. Usually Belfasts other sub cultures are as much to blame but this is another matter. At the age of 15 most spides will have been forced to join thier local under 18's paramilitary organisation. This may be the UYM, YCV, PIRA or in the worst case scenario they will be forced to swear into the Divis Hoods Liberation Army. Some of them get a driving test, and the rest of them buy a Nova SR anyway. These are kitted out with a 5" big bore exhaust and 6x9s playing the likes of DJ Tizer or Clubland 6. For the more style concious spide they may ruin their ma's Corsa or Fiesta 1.1 with the XR2i body kit so no-one will know the difference. For the ones that do it the legal way, these cars are always wrapped round a lamp post before the R plates end. At weekends, spides will enjoy daring each other to get served in the local "offees" for a 3 litre bottle of Olde English or, for the particularly hardcore drinkers of the troops, Buckfast Tonic Wine. Once the spide can no longer get away with a bumfluff 'tache and encounters puberty he will develop stubble. At this point they can then venture up in thier Nova SR/Train to Traks and maybe pop half a "cheeser". Once drunk/tripping, a young milly(female counterpart) will be invited back to the car/his mates flat to get "skelped" which will more often than not encounter her getting up the duff. And thus continuing the cycle.
Hippy: I love my Korn t-shirt from Fresh Garbage, they are the best band, especially that song I've heard.

Spide: I'll bate yer balleex in ye huppy besturt

wankers who say nothing but 'oie' and find it imperative to insert the word 'fuck' in every sentence and finish it off with 'leek'

Get the spide mug.
A sub human neanderthal, lives on a council estate, easily identified by their branded clothing, bad haircuts, cheap jewellery and shitty "souped up" vauxhall corsas.
Bearable in ones and twos because they have too much natural cowardice to say anything, as they dont consider 1v1 or even 2v1 to be a fair fight.
However if there are three or more (depends on size of them and their quarry) then you had better not look at these "bawd lawds" twice, because then you enter their "zone of awareness".
Everyone within their "zone of awareness" that they consider to be someone they dont like (ie. most people), and they will begin to hurl insults that they are convinced are the pinnacle of wit. Unfortuantly these insults usually take the form of "fockin(noun) wenker". The noun can usually be replaced by "fenain" or "brit" if they belive you to be of a different political/religius beliefs (although they have no true beliefs themselves they just copy their "mates"), alternativly if you something black that isnt some form of addidas or nike clothing you will no doubt be branded a "gethic" and be ridiculed for you poor (lol) fashion sense.
If drunk (which is often) the people who are in their zone of awareness are seen as enemies, who must be "bait" in the currently "fair" fight (12v1).
Fortuanatly as long as you quickly leave their zone of awareness before this happens they quickly forget you exist.
The irony is of course that they always consider "you" to be a freak....
Look at all those spides, im sure they will suceed in life

Get the spide mug.
characterised by a stupid 'barcode' 'tash, shaved head apart from a fringe, a baseball cap on the very back of the head (the closer the peak is to vertical, the harder they think they are), trackies (usually white or disgustingly flourescent).
A complete lack of intelligence is usually neccessary, as is the pack mentality (usually displayed through large groups standing outside an offlicense crowded round a radio playin 'beats' and swearing at the 'wenkers' who wont get them shwall a.k.a. booze, usually white lightning - dirty dirty cider).
Usually seen riding around belfast on gopeds - those microscooters with a hairdryer engine on the back, or if they are slightly less trampy, in a 'madifeyd' vauxhall nova.
Their favourite activities include hassling people, robbing pensioners, kickin' off on people for no reason apart from 'slabberin', and sniffing glue.
those spides outside the offies well need a beating, glue-sniffin bastards.

Get the spide mug.
White abusive teenager covered entirely in sportwear (baseball caps, tracksuits trainers) and tacky jewelry, purchased entirely through state benifets.

Probably comes from the term "spider men" refering to the retarded way that they walk as if they are carrying 2 tvs under their arms.
I saw some spides listening to Energy 106 congregating outside McDonalds....I wish cancer upon them.
