Chavs (Chavies, Kegs, Charva, Ned, Mush, Scally etc) are the (unfortunatly) most common sub culture of modern day Britain. The chav or "Council house and violent" or "Council House Average Vermin" are vicious to any other sub culture (or a person that is of no sub culture at all) to an extreme extent. "Moshers, emos, grungers and greebs" are some of their more favourite targets. They resort to violence at the first sign of when they belive they are being threatened or when the simply do not understand something (basically....they are stupid beyond all reason). The only way to avoid a confrontation with a chav is to simply not start one, if you provoke "it", "it" will retaliate with extreme force (aka until ure "beefed"). Over all chavs are very dangerous and the only way to fully avoid, or keep the peace with them is to prevent contact completly or if u have the unfortunate experience of meeting a chav, be as simple (using as many small words as possible) and vaguely polite as you can.

A young adult aged 12-17 wearing and cap,a hoodie with hood up even though its broad daylight and he already has a cap on, adidas tracksuit trousers and has around 200 peices of jewlery from argos worth 5 pounds in total and thinks he is hard because he smokes, his pregnant girlfriend is only 13 and his cap has some lines called burberry but would run for his life if someone hit him because his fight scenario is "cmon then!

A label stupid, poor, lower class, trampy people gave themselves in order to fit into some kind of steriotypical group (because all the other groups reject them).

They live in estates, feeding off our taxes through benefits, which they spend on countless rings, thick gold chains, cigarettes and alcohol.

If it wasn't for the government these people would be homeless.

simple as.
Copper: You're under arrest.
Chav: What the fuck for?
Copper: Swearing at a police officer!

The UK's answer to the wigger, with most of the black slang being lost in the move across the Atlantic and curiously replaced by Burberry. The attitude, utter uselessness, and tendancy to start reproducing before one is old enough to shave remains unchanged. Vehicle modification and aversion to legally purchased items are likewise similar. Minor regional variances in clothing and music tastes may occur, but do not hinder identification - if you've seen one, you will immediately be able to recognize the other types.
"Why's that guy got his tracksuit tucked into his socks?"
"That thing's a chav. Just like the ones you've got back home that wear their trousers with the crotch down at their ankles. We just don't have clothes big enough here, so they had to pick something else that looked just as stupid. But inside, they're all the same."
"Oh, a wigger? They've made it over here, too? The planet is doomed!"

These strange species can seem perfectly harmless until they are placed in their natural habitat. If there is a silverbacked chav who is superior to everyone as he has the latest Scooter album, the other chavs will form a protective ring around him.
These scourge plague the streets of most cities, but most of all Newcastle. The male of the species will have short spiked hair, and will pretend their voice is deep years before it has broken, which appears to be an effective mating call. The female of the species will wear truckloads of makeup and huge (often plastic) earrings the size of the millennium wheel. If temperatures are below -5 degrees C, they will feel inclined to wear a mini skirt which barely covers their hips (see also: Micro Skirt)
When the male and female of the species meet, the male will put on a burbry cap to seem more attractive. Within an hour the two will have engaged in unprotected sex and whoops!...there goes another teenage pregnancy, another scum bag to pay for in our taxes!
Chavs will also force themselves to start smoking at the age of about 12, which is a sign that they are "Hard" or "Belter".
Any human verbal interaction with these vermin will result in an absolutely moronic response such as "Hew man you fucking daft cunt!" when asked to rephrase their inadequately worded statement, the same, only slightly more angry response is thrown at you.
No other 'race' other than their own is acceptable. Any goths, punks, skaters or grungies are renamed to "tree huggers" or "hippys". They do not have the brain cells to understand that they are infact the worst scourge of this planet!
Lastly, they will start fights with anybody that's smaller than them, to try and make themselves feel highly superior, and to try and impress the opposite sex. The long long list could go on forever.
To sum it up, these spangle stained hooligans are a dire example of Darwin's "Survival of the fittest" and are a complete waste of space, carbon lifeform, and tax payers money!
Look! There's some chavs! Where's that nitroglycerin I prepared earlier?

Derived from Cheltenham in Gloucestershire, in full means Cheltenham Average. These sub-human runts have the burberry caps and addidas trousers tucked into red rebok socks.

But the worst thing about the Chav is that they have genitalia thus being allowed to procreate and birth new little runtish chav's. Soon like a cancer they will spread and take over the whole of England.

Too prevent prehaps we should ban fox hunting and leagalize chav hunting.
man, dude, homie, mate. All of which are acceptable, but the are said in there own little accent of which no one can hope to understand unless born into a chav household.
