Get the Chav mug.A person unworthy of basic human rights and are also probably unaware of such things. Their innate abilities are formed early in life, when they develop skills such as stealing, which progresses into full blown robbery of the taxpayer when they come of age to spawn offspring. Though they have been considered vile creatures in the last decade, the past few years have seen the chav become a stylish social class and members of the chav cult have been renowned for relying on mainstream media to know of their news, music, etc. Celebrities and 'pop' stars are also responsible for producing chavs with their disgusting art. Indeed, the chav has truly evolved into a body of persons who believe themselves glamour deities and socialites. If it weren't for their inability to use their brain and think for themselves, chavs would be an almost acceptable spectacle to society. Numbers of chavs have improved with social media as well, using sites such as facebook, twitter and others to share their repugnant exploits with the world.
"Hey Becky, have you got yer Juicy trackies and rollers yet?"
