Chav and Chavvy, and they are always used by the same class of poster
Am I the only one sick of seeing this?

The 'class of poster' (ie lower-class or peasant ) who use the word chav and chavvy and other vulgar terms of course.

I find the baby names threads the most hilarious threads on MN

Only in this section do you get posters wanting to call their sons Bear. And River.

People need ENCOURAGING to post here, not being abused as chavvy

And most of the threads belong in classics

To elaborate, one pulls it over one's immaculately coiffed do as opposed to zips. What was I thinking?!.

One wouldn't want to get a pull in the merino dahling

Of course one doesn't zip up a boden tunic. Ignore me in my errazuriz soaked state

What do you mean by 'class of poster'?.

LOL Bunny!

It's better than "lower-class" or "peasant"

But how else (zipping up one's boden pintuck tunic) does one describe 'the others'?
