what's your opinions of all the stereotypes we get (I'm from the UK) and we get:
Townies/Chavs (called losts of different names in area's of UK, maybe the UK version of the Gabba)
Greebo/Grunger (greebo used to mean biker but now it's just people who listen to rock/metel/punk)
Goths (you know who these are)
Skaters (and these)
+
Emo's (people who listen to 'emo'tional punk)
Trendies (the name says it all, somtimes these are a variation of a townie but not so bad, they just dress up better)
Ravers (I wouldn't know what to look one if I saw one but in Canada it's easier right? they wear these candy beeds thingies and popular UFO-trousers that are 3 times too big)
If there's one of those stereotypes i HATE, it has to be the Townie/Chav (Ned in Scotland I believe...) it's their attitude I hate - they walk around towns and cities as if they are competing with anyone who eye contacts them, they are UK's number one vermin next to rats (and the flying rats they call pigeons) they also like to cause trouble at raves and hopefuly get kicked out before starting fights. Just to let outside UK people know what they look like - they are all the same. 'Burbery' baseball caps tilted skyhigh at the front, shothair, tracky bottoms (tucked into their socks) and sports clothes, lots of fake gold 'bling' and a pair of rebok classis. saying things like: 'you got 50p mate?' 'don't lie to me boy or i'll kick ya 'ed in and get me big brothers on ya' also like shouting 'oy!' and other stupid things and walk around like they are the kings of the street with their arms swinging out and a wierd sort of limp.
mind you, all these wannabe grungers/skaters that are like 10-14 wearing a blink182 and slipknot hoodies (they might not even know who these bands are but wear them just for the sake of it), walletchains and skatershoes (even tho they probably can't skate) are just as much vermin as the townies.

So it's not the stereotyping you dislike? It's the people that are stereotyped, that you dislike ?:P Though i totally agree with the chav thing, they are complete idiots, and the streets would be much more safe and pleasant without them.

^^^You really are a very wise minded person hard to get. applause to you.
and yes mate. i know exactly what ru talkin about/ most of those people within that stereotypical gauge piss me off to high heaven, however, there are the very few exceptions.
the thing is though, the only way to distinguish one from from another is to check out their proper personalities; luckily enough though, with proper townies and shit, that can be seen effectivvely straight away.
these people do piss me off and i wish there was something that could be done about them, but at the end of the day, these people are basically just another part of those trendies and thats what pisses me off the most about anyone; people that follow trends, because even if they do like it, if they didn;t know about it in the first place, they would dress like that to begin with, therefore it isn't really their true personalities or attitude to society;music, whatever etc etc....
 Always remember; you are unique, just like everyone else

Jezz I think we have the worst of townies down in Essex big time!! I mean like you said hooverlover, they just want to cause shit with people if someone looks at them, happens all the time down our way. With the grunger thing, I mean of course as you know I used to be in that scene and I would hate it when kids would wear the tops because they have heard one song from Kerrcrap! You know when I was travelling all the way to london to see bands and even play mind you and go see like some band that no one knew and it was like me and like 4 mates moshing, that is something different.
But the townies foook me off big time!!

Chavs i mean how cool do you look with your trackie bottoms tucked into your socks. Fake Burberry hats and those coats that they sell in millets (the ones designed for getting stuck up a hill in the rain)
I wear skate shoes and can't skate so what does that say about me?

I totaly agree!!!! My mate summed it up for me at the weekend, A burberry clad beer boy towny started on us and everybody else in the club!!! My mat turned round and said "blees him its not his fault he just hasn't quit evolved yet :-) Joking apart though they do act like mindless animals, they should be shot and fed to the hounds........

havent heard of the mentioned stereotypes but "Ricers" irritate me the most around here....These guys put stickers all over their cars and place "TYPE R" badges on their car when its very well known that the type R hasnt been seen in the US for a long time. They get huge chrome rims that are heavier than the car and to top it off they get a nasty sounding exhaust that sounds like a lawn-mower.....
or they get a SUPER BIG ASS SPOILER that has no business being on their car....
This one just made me laugh....

Over here there called boy racers.
Steps to becoming a boy racer
1. buy the cheapest car you can afford then spen lots of money making it look worse.
2. buy cheap loud speakers and distort the nasty charty rap and r+b
3. drive like a tit, with no care for anyone else.
4. Hang around car parks till late a night looking at other peoples rubbish cars.
