bullock

What is there problem? They seem to think they own the place and always ask for smokes ... " ah come here Bud, Give us a smoke". Well scumbags with your chav gear (burberry) go **** off and get jobs. We're tormented with your scum look and robbing cars fettish!!!

I think here in Ireland we call them:
1) Knackers
2) Scum Bags
3) Thinkers

In England they call them:
1) Chavs
2) Pikies

In Scotland they call them:
1) NEDS

If anyone knows any more please let us know and if anyone has been in another country and has different named let us know.

Are you in England?

bullock

No ... But I have visited. I also have sky 1 here and they have stuff on every so often on "The Chav"!!!!!!!

Kersh

Chav = Council House And Violent.
Either way, just like scum here they deserve to be dead. I see one of them was killed joyriding last week.. hahahahahahaha, had it coming to him***


*** speaking here from having 3 cars broken into in 18 months, and our house. Scum - I know this cos they caught some of them.

TheBigLebowski

They really are miserable ****ers. I hate them.

I presume you meant tinkers, because the only thinking they do is trying to decide who they can scab a smoke from next and how many cans of Dutch Gold can they get for a tenner.

I had the same drug addict knacker ask me for "bus fare back to Ballybrack, buuuuuuuuuuuud" two days in a row because he was out of both times. On the second day I reminded him of the previous day and he squinted at me, got paranoid and assumed I was a Garda. He apologised and stumbled away, looking over his shoulder at me as if I was following him. It was gas!

Sparky

I know i hate the sh1t heads altogether, they think they can own everything by robbing it, and all they wear is sports wear, and stripey shirts and those feken hats that are more pointing up towards the sky than on there heads.

i hate the ****ers.

Healio

Does one pronouce that as "chu-ave" or "shav"?

grimloch

I've had this fella who must have asked me about 5 times for bus fare at this stage. I'm not too fond of them to be honest.

Remember the guy who said they were entitled to be violent?

Precisely, I'm going to make a generalisation here but being from a "bad background" does not give someone the excuse to beat somebody up or act the prat.

WellyJ

My point is they dont know any better

Its no coincidence that the "Chavs" all grow up in poor areas.

I dont recall seeing any burberry hats while driving through malahide and howth today.

That's because the poor variant is the most visible. Scum comes from all walks of life. In all cases, behaving like scum is inexcusable. I think most of us here like to make life a little better for those around us even if it's just a friendly face. We don't need people who exist only to make life worse for everyone else.

Agreed, in a way you have actually backed up my point. This topic is centred around a bad sterotype of what a "Scumbag" is. As you say there are scum in every town etc. Just cos someone asks you for a "smoke" and wears a burberry hat or jumper doesnt instantly make them a scumbag just as a guy in an expensive suit could just as easily be out to rob your car.

Also. the poll question is moronic. Everyone will obviously answer "No" to the question, apart from a few of course who just vote on these polls for the sake of it.

Hagar

Just for the record, a scumbag is a totally different kettle of fish.

It is slang for a male contraceptive ie a bag in which to catch your scum.
Don't ask me how I know these things. It's a gift.

Excuse me but i come from a poorer area of Dublin, and i know many many people in my estate. Just because we live in corpo houses, doesnt mean that i am a scumbag, either are my neighbours or my friends from the area. Making that generalisation is the same as saying that all Irish people are alcoholics. As is saying everyone who wears sports gear is also a scumbag as said by another poster. I resent that statement.

WellyJ

Well ironically enough, with me defending them, i had a run in with one a couple months back outside the local.

Me and my friend were standing talking outside and from across the road he threw an empty pint glass at us narrowly missing my friend and smashing off the wall.

Ended up in a row with him and his 2 mates.

So i can see why people have a bad opinion of them

I probably should too, but i guess im not one to generalise people.

If you read my posts properly you will see that im actually defending people from poorer areas, and agreeing with you that just cos you may be from a poor area of the city doesnt make you an instant scumbag, apologies if that post made it seem like thats what i was saying but its not what i was getting at at all.

I'v often been out the front of a pub drinking in a beer garden when a pikie
has tried to rob people and started fights with the bouncers. all the while the cops were watching afraid to get involved.

Reminds me one night when a group of us were walking home, there were two groups of skangers fighting with each other so we decided to take a different route and around the corner were three gardai, one male two female, obviously too afraid to go near them. They got a shock when we appeared around the corner, obviously assuming we were one of the groups. :rolleyes:
And on another note, the male garda got into his car and almost reversed into us. :eek:

That is really annoying. Scumbags are all **** we all know, weve talked about it before. But what can you do? You cant educate them and you cant kill them (Genocide) and you can try to move them but since the law seems to protect them we just have to put up with them.
