WTF is that about, come one get a job! Wearing jeans half way down your legs... No one wants to see your pants! sort it out! Smacking your lips when eating and talking with food in your mouth.... Yum Yum. Drink driving... need not say any more. <dequote> Other than for its being a dull, pointless rant, I don't see why it might have been removed.

    I'm not from the UK, but I think the term 'Chav' is derogatory and offensive over there. Other than that, I agree, I don't see why it was removed.

      No it's not. It has just become a catchall phrase for 'the youth of today' really, with an emphasis for the underclasses. Out of work, hanging around on street corners, wearing hoodies. Not offensive, over used if anything.

          Aren't we UK-ians supposed to hug the hoodie, also is hoodie British slang for a hooded sweat shirt? Glenn

            Call Me Dave did encourage everyone to 'hug a hoodie', but he also refused to comment about individual's tax arrangements when asked about his mates, then called Jimmy Carr's 'morally wrong' despite his father making his fortune in the same way, then a day later refusing to comment again when asked about Garry Barlow. Hoodie is slang for a hooded sweat shirt everywhere I think.

              I removed it in fear of being offensive AFTER reading the rules... Maybe I should not have :)

                  I thought you were drunk :)

                  Starting to think people post kid pics in their profiles because that was the last time they were cute - Jeremy.
