Wiggers.

Ali G is a parody of a chav.

=/ well I thought that I might get some striking social commentary about the UK and perhaps a historical description of how the subculture came about and the thoughts and feelings of the general populous about "chavs" but if they are just "wiggers" well, I don't know.

This could be said about every thread you've ever made.

An aggravatingly stupid British sub-culture that I think you have to be from the UK to really appreciate in full. Do we have anyone from there who posts here?
