CHAV new definition

[simonsimon]

Following an unfortunate right wing rant in the Worthing Sentinel by our local SCR pundit/newspaper columnist about chav's, we now have a new official NSC definition for CHAV:

Columnist Hart Always Victimising

 

[Scotty Mac]

apparently it originates from the term "cheltenham average"

 

[Gully]

That is what I heard Scotty M and living in Gloucester it gives me great pleasure to remind Cheltionians of that precise fact.

I had also heard that it came from a Romany word "chavver", which apparently means mate.

 

[blue'n'white]

I was told quite recently it was an acronym for Council House And Vulgar
Whether that's true or not I like it !!

 

[driller]

i thought council house and vermin

 

[Lady Bracknell]

I always thought it originated from the Romani for a child, "chavvi".

 

[Cian]

Fictional Sunday Tribune diarist "Ross O'Caroll Kelly" was using "CHV" (council house vermin) as a term of insult from the late 1990s, long time before I heard "Chav" being used....

 

[Lady Bracknell]

What has the "corpse custodian" actually said though?

 

[Beach Hut]

Well Junior is now a CHAV

His parents are not proud

 

[Lady Bracknell]

He needs to be BEATEN. Ideally with a Burberry slipper.
