Sep. 25th, 2004 08:01 pmIt's Saturday night, and the air is thick with chavs. There is a cluster of about 12 of them, lurking outside Spar, and various others around the High Street, just arsing around and squawking.
Chavs, to me, are essentially human wasps. They won't harm you, because they don't have the balls, but they will get as in your face as they can, and be as irritating as they can, right up to the point where you want to get out a human equivalent of flyspray, and send them to oblivion.
Which is, alas, illegal.
There's something about chavs, about their wilful rejection of everything that makes civilisation possible, and yet their desire to take everything that civilisation offers, which makes my skin crawl.
It does occur to me, in fact, that instead of bleating on about deporting all the immigrants - people who came to Britain in search of a better life - we should deport the chavs instead, who haunt Britain in search of a worse life. Let them see it first-hand, in Albania and Afghanistan, and then let's see if they believe the small towns and cities they buzz around like wasps still look so shit and boring.
Sorry - a long day of overtime and feeling that going out for a box of washing powder was a dangerous task have left me feeling pretty pissed off with the world at large.
