mosher

Please read this: What is stated below is true from experience

A "Mosher" is NOT a made up word by scallies/chavs to describe someone different, NOR is it a word to describe anyone who is a goth... A mosher is a person who is slamming into other people in the front rows of a rock/metal concert (or MOSH PIT).

The term Mosh was coined by the singer HR of Bad Brains when he introduced their song "mash it up" in his thick Jamaican accent and it came out as "Mosh It Up" instead. Anthrax, the New York speed/thrash metal band later wrote an excellent song named "Caught In A Mosh" as an ode to the fans at the front of their concert pits.

Scallies or chavs only call people they don't know "moshers" because they don't have a clue what they are talking about and the media (VERY incorrectly) defined a mosher as someone in a green day top and baggy jeans and a skateboard (?) and you know how accuarte the media is right?

mosher

According to the vast population of neds or chavs. The word mosher is used to describe any boy or girl that dresses in dark clothing and hangs around with their friends having a good time and generally listen to heavy metal.
A common misconception is that they are all stoners and drink blood. They tend to stay within groups of their own and avoid confrontation with neds/chavs.
They are completely different to emos and prefer not to be labelled
ned boy: oh look at those stoner moshers!
moshers: *sigh* stupid ned scum
ned boy: oi wit didya jus cal ma?!
moshers: Nothing, now please go away.
ned: I'll bate ya!
moshers: *stand up and walk away*
ned boy: Ther all gone ta drink each others blood

mosher

a person who listens to any type of rock music and does not tend to try and annoy others, and try to avoid chavs (scallys/_or as i call them shit heads) the scally's will try to harm moshers and will hang out on any street corner acting hard but a mosher does not feel the need to act hard(strong) because they mostly do not feel the need to fight unless provoked by a Chav.
In all a mosher is a generally nice person.^-^

Moshers

Now the word mosher seem to have become a person who isnt a chav, as all little shit head chavs like to call everyone who isnt a chav a fucking mosher.
A real mosher is someone who goes down into the mosh pits at gigs ect. as this is were the word orinates from. Moshers dont have to wear a certain type of clothes and dont have to listen to a certain type of music. But they are usally into rock/metal and have ultertive life styles clothes and ways of thinking.
Chav1 "Ah look at that group of fucking moshers"
Chav2 "moshers!"
moshers "chavs"

mosher

There's actually no real meaning to the word mosher. It is something that chavs made up to describe anyone ages 25- that doesn't follow the mainstream of being a chav. However, as i know what is classed as a mosher, i shall pretend for a while that it does exist. A generalisation of a mosher is to wear black, baggy clothing, worship satan, slit your own wrists and want to kill all chavs. The majority of this is pure bull though. I myself am what people would call a 'mosher'. However, i am currently wearing BLUE 3/4 trousers and a WHITE T-shirt. The only black im wearing is socks and boxers! Wrist slitting really shouldnt be generalised with a specific kind of people... Many, many people do it when they are depressed... Not just kids who want to be cool, many adults who are struggling, even chavs sometimes... So saying its a scummy emo mosher thing to do is pathetic, stupid and altogether false!
The whole satanist thing is crap too.. Just because i like rock music doesn't mean i believe almight lucifer will rise... I'm not a satanist.. I actually believe in God, which is a very rare thing amongst todays youth. I don't let it effect my life though, i still swear, and often do bad things because it is fun or i just don't care...
Many people who say they are moshers also say that they twat the crap out of any chav who walks by, or they can take on a group of 10 chavs... Can they balls! Granted, chavs are soft compared to most of todays society, but that is exactly why they hang around in extremely large groups of 40+. Chavs will only pick a fight with a person on their own or a group of people that are severely outnumbered by the chavs.
I am a member of a large group of alternative friends which consists of 'moshers', emo kids, goths, skaters and rockers. There are about 38 of us altogether, but usually only about 5-15 out at a time. We don't go around randomly hospitalising chavs, because this is stupid. It is stupid because everyone would be sent down for a gang attack, and also, chavs have friends. If you take down one chav, their friends and their friends friends etc. will come looking for you. It is dangerous to fight chavs, not short term but long term. If a group of chavs (group, no single chavs have the guts to) try to start a fight with me or me and friends, I/we just ignore them, for we have a higher intellect than chavs. If someone tells you they have taken out 5 chavs, they are lying. Or at least, if they are telling the truth, you won't know them for much longer. REAL moshers only fight back when it is vital. People think that moshers are scary and look like they are out for trouble. This is ironic, however, as it is the chavs that are out looking to start fights with any randomer who walks by. Moshers are actually peace keepers.. Well, peace in violence... They are quite loud :P.
My group of friends generally just tries to stay away from chavs.. We do skateboarding, music playing (many of us play instruments), or listen to music rather loud. We only really listen to loud music when in town centres though, not in housing estates, so we don't really interrupt anyones sleep. If you want someone to have fun with and keep out of fights with and just generally be friends with, then you are looking for a mosher. Sometimes scary on the outside, mostly friendly and sweet on the inside.
Chav: FOCKEN SCUMMY MOSHERS!!!

Mosher: Whatever you say...

Chav: Watch yer focken mouth ya focken mop'ead! I'll get focken Tanton crew on ya if ya give me any more gob, focken goffy boy!

Moshers: ~leave to have fun by themselves, away from the chav~

Chav: FOCKEN DICK'EAD!! SCUMMY MOP'EADS BETTA FOCKEN WATCH YA FOCKEN BACK!! GONNA GET FOCKEN KNIFED!!... Smack'eads...
