20%


But some of those options are things that every British person has encountered.

[Big King Sanctaphrax]

22%. However, in my defence...

-The Burberry item I own is a trench coat. Not a very chavvy garment.

-The suit with more than three buttons I own is double breasted. Again, pretty much the opposite of what the question was getting at.

-I'm very proud of the fact that I didn't go to a private school.

[Pannonian]

18%.

[GoreBag]

31%, apparently. Wiggers obviously have different traditions in Britain than here in North America.

[Strike For The South]

33% In my defense some of those are just becuase Im white trash

[spmetla]

20% Hmm:inquisitive:

[IrishArmenian]

7%. What the hell is a chav?

[Samurai Waki]

22% :laugh4: Glad it wasn't too much above that, though.

[Omanes Alexandrapolites]

I got 22% too, which is, in my opinion, not bad, but is not especially good either.

[Somebody Else]

11%. But like BKS I own a trenchcoat. Corned beef hash - not unknown in 24 hour ration packs. As for the rest, I've grown up having to deal with Americans (earrings, 'toilet' &c.)

[English assassin]

16% chav. But I protest I only ate pot noodles when I was a student.

Still, I shouldn't complain, because if it had asked what football team I supported I would have gone off the scale.

(Come on you Gills !)

I refer to the loo as the toliet and a sofa is a "settee" around these parts. As to clothing I'm a somewhat scruffy git, but I don't wear any of the chav brands.

Personally I think the whole chav thing has gone too far. The upper crust now seem to refer to most of the working classes as chavs, and there are some people that don't consider themselves as chavs, but in fact are, while looking down their noses at others. The only types that I find very offensive are the ugly little hoody wearing youths and the "kappa slappers" that are never too far away. The type that hang about outside off licences making the place look untidy, asking you to buy booze for them or looking for a "spare cigarette", whatever that may be.

[Sjakihata]

20% which kind of surprised me. I only bought flowers one time at a petrol station for my girlfriend. I know that's kind of chav, at least I wasnt in a car.

[Dâriûsh]

24%?

Must be the football shirts, the mobile phone ring-tone, and the R & B.

And I do own some Burberry, but the checks are discrete and not visible on the outside. :shame:

[Duke Malcolm]

We do not have chavs in Scotland...

[caravel]

No, they're called Neds up there IIRC... do they wear burberry kilts? :inquisitive:

[King Henry V]

But you have NEDs.:juggle2:

18% Chav

Too high, far too high for someone of my impeccable tastes and standards. :toff:

[Duke Malcolm]

Yes, we have Neds and Jakeys...
Vast quantities, grown in great schemes, thousands at a time... In cities across the realm... ugh...

[The_Doctor]

I got 24%.

We have we scallies in Merseyside.

18%

[Orb]

7% for me

[The Stranger]

13% one of the lowest around :D most questions and names seemed totally random to me so i just answered no...

[ZombieFriedNuts]

Dear god I’m 11% chav that’s 11% to much

In defence
Co-op was near where I lived
Marks and Spencer food hall is expensive
What’s wrong with saying tea for dinner?


And for all those who don't know what a chav is http://www.chavscum.com/

[dacdac]

haha. i got 2% chavvy rating. good enough for me.

[Lorenzo_H]

lol this should be fun!

I got 36% chav! What the heck?

[Craterus]

29%

I'm ashamed. Genuinely ashamed. Kinda stupid questions though.

[Csargo]

44% I have nothing to say. :shame:

[Kanamori]

48%

I never paid enough attention to brand names when I was there to break the test.:shame:

Call me silly, but when they're not being loud when I'm trying to concentrate, their antics can be pretty funny. The thing is though, I think many/most of them don't conciously know what's going on.

Because nobody would take me too seriously there, I liked to ride around on the tube w/ tons of pot in my pocket reeking all over or drunk; most of them seemed to appreciate a drunk American.~:)

The old ladies sometimes seemed genuinely offended, though I think that they get a lot of practice.

[Big King Sanctaphrax]

You were at UCL for a time, right?

Got any recommendations for good restaurants/pubs in the area? There are so many that I've inevitably missed some of the good ones.

[Kanamori]

I actually didn't drink too much in that area... I won't be very useful.

The Marlborough Arms had more beers than most but was busy.

Otherwise, my best luck was around St. James's and allys around Picadilly Circus. I don't really remember the names though...:barrel:

The Bishop's Finger is a name that I remember, I was looking for good Spitfire outside of Parliament; it's pretty close to Farringdon and was pretty good.

[JimBob]

White trash don't call it a toilet. It is a toilet damnit!


16% Probably the toilet and knowing dudes with earings. I once knew a guy who had 1/4 gauge in each ear. :shudder:

[CountArach]

13%... not very Chav.

That said I am Aussie, so a lot of those questions I had no idea baout, but then there were questions like the "loo" being called a "toilet" that everyone down here does, so I suppose it makes up for it.

[Patriarch of Constantinople]

44% I have nothing to say. :shame:

51%

In my defence: I press random buttons.

[caravel]

22. Do you prefer Carling to Stella?
What kind of a question is that? Stella is equally a chav beer. Carling is bad though... it's what you would expect to find if you had bathed one of Mithrandir's camels and then bottled and fermented the bathwater. Stella is the same except the camel would have been for a run and forded the nile first.

[Big King Sanctaphrax]

Yeah, I thought that was a bit of a duff question. Like Stella is a really middle class beer.

[Lorenzo_H]

I know the Carling-Stella question confused me, both are equally Chav beers!

For those who don't know what Chav stands for it is: Counsel Housed And Violent

Not necessarily. There are several versions of it's origin, that one being the least plausible IMHO. The most plausible is that it is derived from the Gypsy word "chavo", which means "kid", "boy", "lad" or "youth". The word "chavo" is also used throughout latin america and has much the same significance. The word has obviously come into the mainstream indirectly through the travelling community.

You'll have to walk down Gower street but the Bloomsbury is good. http://www.shepherd-neame.co.uk/pubs/pubs.php/BLOOMSBURY

Remember, A Spitfire a Day Keeps the Doctor Away, although in your case I suppose that may not be a good thing.

[Duke Malcolm]

Yeah, I thought that was a bit of a duff question. Like Stella is a really middle class beer.

Stell goes by the name "wife-beater" here quite often...

[The Stranger]

I don't drink bear... so ill prolly never become real chav... :S

[Sir Robin the Brave]

I am 24% chav

which leg is that?

[Omanes Alexandrapolites]

I will never be a chav, ever! I will not allow it :grin:

[Kralizec]

44% I have nothing to say. :shame:

You got more white trash in you then STFS does :laugh4:

Only 13% for me :toff:

[Csargo]

How rude.:bigcry:

In my defense I didn't know what half of the crap was.
