Folkestone - Snob Alert!
16 Answers
We visited a friend yesterday who lives in Folkestone and whilst there decided to stroll to the harbour to pick up some shellfish.
My god, I have never seen so many fat, tattooed people in one place in my life - it was a chavalanche!
It was as though the whole population of Dartford had decamped to Folkestone for the weekend.
Right - the question. Why, when they speak (although grunt would probably be a better description), does their volume have to be so loud? Normal people don't feel the need to let everybody within a 50 metre radius know that "its f......g hot innit".
Horrible proles.

The reason why 'chavs' are so noisy is because they are ignored, and / or ill-treated as children.
If you look at the average 'chav' toddler, ineraction with his/her parents is either non-existant, or consists of grunts, interspersed with shouts of "Get 'ere you little ...!"
They learn at an early age that no-one is listening to them or cares what they think and feel. This translates into attention-seeking behaviour and hyper-sensitivity to the notion of being 'dis-respected' by even a glance from a stranger.
Put money into nursery education, teach children a sense of self-worth and the ability to be nice, and you could erradicate 'chavs' in one generation.
Pardon Mr Brown? Oh yes, sorry, I forgot, you can't have an invasion force in other peoples' countries AND have a decently funded education system. What was | thinking of!

I don't think you are a snob, flip-flop. There is nothing wrong with finding antisocial behaviour unacceptable. Antisocial behaviour doesn't have to be violent, it only has to be selfish, loud and without consideration for others. There is a difference between working class people and chavs. Working class people can be good neighbours, be active in the community, be responsible parents and be honest at work or seeking work. Chavs, on the other hand are a disgrace to their class and deserve no respect as they have no respect for others.
