Just A Thought

[Michael Hardman]

This has elements of townie related tak in it but its not atownie topic.

Has anyone ever thought that in a 'townies' eyes what he or she is doing is normal, the music they isten to the sports they like etc...

What has brought thisup is me lookng at the music people are into on here and to an 'outsider' say a 'townie' we may beconsidered to be werid, just like how we look in and view 'townies'

Anyway philosophy leason over, I need to get back to the English leasons and get a better keyboard.

People aren't branded as townies by the music they listen to. If that was the case, there'd be a hell of a lot more 'townies' around. Similar is the case for sports. They like football. So what? I like football, my grandad likes football. I don't see where that was hoping to go...?

Also, the thing with the majority of the "nu skool chavs" is that most of them are only like that because they want to be like that. They deliberately go out and buy Burberry, or whatever, to fit in with the social environment they were brought up in. I doubt half of them actually admire drum & bass, they only go around blasting it as a means of letting others know what social category they [are trying to] fit in.

People's opinions and ideas about chavs won't dramatically change if they had a freaky friday thing happen, and saw the life of a chav through chavs eyes. What do they do? Go around joy riding, smoking, smashing things up, etc. Doesn't matter which pair of eyes you look through to witness that... it's socially unacceptable - it's chav.
