townie

The lowest group within urban society. Pests and annoyances. Townie males sport an up-turned baseball cap, and wear hoodies or baggy sports clothes, and usually have a shaven or short haircut. They can also be identified with large amounts of fake jewellery, Burberry clothing and poor linguistic ability. Townie females are generally mingers, with vast amounts of make-up, short sluttish clothing, loud, smokers and binge drinkers. They hang around local shops and/or bus shelters in large group numbers, and have a liking for garage, hardcore dance and hip-hop music as well as driving modified old cars (e.g. Vauxhall Novas). Townies are the main cause of social ills such as vandalism, petty theft and violent crime.
Townies contribute nothing to civilised society. They should not be here.

townie

townies (and tramps) are responsible for keeping the white lightning cider company in buisness.
townettes (female townies)were born to breed and are very popular when their arse turns purple signifying that they are in season.
A confrontation with a townie will involve them repeatedly saying "c'mon then" while walking quickly (usualy backwards) away from you. one step in their direction will result in them s**tting them selves and making a run for it.
Townies will afiliate themselves with the nearest large city and thierfore in my home town of Crewe they are all desperate to be Mancunians and can often be heard using phrases like "sorted" and "mad fo it". look for the one who has'nt quite got the hang of the accent yet, you will piss yourself laughing.
townie uniform in Crewe is, baseball cap, puffer jacket, blue tracksuit bottoms with a white stripe and poppers down the side (townie pants)bizarely worn with the legs tucked into thier socks and white adidas classic trainers.
they can be found outside shops or on street corners, somtimes huddled around a twatted up B reg vaxhall nova.
it would be funny if they were not going to spend the rest of their lives living off our taxes.
usually called baza, daza, wayne or kevin.

townie

Pronunced: Scum

*sigh* ....this word just fills me with anger...because townies really are the scum of the universe.
I'm not even going to bother trying to describe them, there's plenty of totally spot-on definitions of them on here. Basically anyone that hates them with the passion that i do, you have my respect and total support in the killing of all townies and (God forbid) scallies *shudder*
some townies are ok mind, but more often than not the 'nice' townies are just the most annoying creature you have come across, usually the cronies that follow around the pure evil townies that need to be shot.
There is no example i could give that wouldn't start me on a two hour rant about how much i hate townies...I HATE THEM

townie

In America, the word townie is generally used to refer to people who are deeply rooted in their home town and have little or no prospects of leaving it even to go on vacation (except perhaps Aruba or the Bahamas). Generally, they don't go to college except perhaps to community college where they take one or two classes a semester. They or their families probably own a small business, perhaps paving or landscaping. Many of them frequent cheap, dirty bars that have nothing but Bud Light on tap. Some may be heard drunkenly babbling about how Arabs are taking the country by means of their ownership of countless gas stations and convenience stores. The word townie is also sometimes used by hipster douchebags to take shots at people over their accent and how they choose to spend their time.
Sacramentan: So what do you do for fun in Massachusetts?

Me: Red Sox, poker; I'm a bit of a music-

Sacramentan: "Red Sahx"? "Pokah"? What are you, a fucking townie?

Me: Actually, I have a real job, I go to college full-time, my dad doesn't have a landscaping company, and I don't plan to live on the Irish Riviera forever. -You shouldn't be so quick to judge people. I didn't call you a pretentious hipster douchebag just because you wear thick-rimmed glasses and listen to indie music on your iPod while you ride your fixie to the coffee shop.- (- -: I wish I had actually said that part)
