Bunch of ****ing twats

Can you explain the whole 'danger of death' sign thing? What is that? And what did you mean by "bothered mate"? Please explain that whole segment.
 
Should have given them an ass kicking.

I almost got knifed in a nightclub a few weeks ago. Was chatting to the then-girlfriend on my mobile, and a couple of chavs decided to approach me.

"Oi mate, got a fag?"
"Sorry kid, I don't smoke"
"Can I borrow your phone?"
"Not really."

These guys get noticably angry.

"Do you know who I am?"
"I could pick you out in an identity parade, if that's what you mean."
"Well, are you going to give me ya phone?"
"No. You can f*ck off."
Flipped the finger, and walked off into the croud. Thankfully, there were too many people about for them to actually wrestle the phone from me. That, and because I have no respect for my own wellbeing, I would've died before letting it go.

Damn thugs.

Wait what just happened?

So you had wounds on your hands from work related injuries, some guy thought it was from kicking asses, and it made some tough guy who wanted to prove he could beat all you up back down? (Along with other issues making him back down)

Got the gist of it right? Yeah?

Weird. Also what's a danger of death sign? I thought it meant you had that look to you that you'd kill them all in a scuffle or something but then you literally meant an object that he threw over a fence or something.

You kinda got it. I'd say the cuts on my hand were pretty minor, but something made him think he'd seen me in a row before or summat. I'd say my friend intervening was the main thing tbh. But only one of the brothers was being a twat and saying he could **** us up at first, and the second only rounded on my other mate when he thought he was gonna draw a knife :)

The 'danger of death' sign is a yellow bit of plastic that we found earlier it has the words 'danger of death' in black, with a man being hit by a lightening bolt above it.

"bothered mate" = 'And? So what? I'm not bothered'

:D

Yes, because in the U.S. you know everyone dances around with flowers in their hair hugging and telling each other how much they love one another, and there definitely isn't neigh on 13,000 murders per year. and the U.S. certainly doesn't have an organized crime problem.
 
You should of just knocked the so called 'ard nut back, so he throws the first punch then its self defence and you can knock them the **** out and ram an anti-chav wristband right up his ass...see if they got anything in common with vampires and garlic bread :p

Don't act like thats some absolutely huge number. Compare our population size to the UK and it's not a huge difference ratio-wise. What he means is this sort of stuff seems to happen absolutely constantly in the UK. I've never seen someone trying to start fights in the streets like seems to happen to all of you, and I live in one of the biggest cities in the US. No one ever comes up and asks for a cigarrete or to borrow your phone (unless its in an emergency) and you're certainly not going to get beat up for saying no over here. You call them "chavs" well guess what, we don't have them, we (like every other country) have criminals sure, but we certainly don't have a crime problem whatsoever.
 
Just thought i'd offer up a rough translation of this amazing tale for those non-Brits......

I've just come rather close to becoming involved in an altercation with two 19 year old chaps.

Myself and two associates were meandering home from a friends boat following a few alcoholic beverages. During this pleasant stroll home, we encountered a pair of local siblings, who attempt to solicit a cigarette from us. After explaining that we were unable to comply with their request, they proceeded to strike up a polite conversation. Since they were familiar with one of my closer associates, everything was hunky-dory. I also happened to be carrying an illicitly procured construction sign thereby prompting one of the siblings to advise "Excuse me young chap, i would like to offer some complimentary words of advice. You really oughtn't to be flouting your possession of that particular information board since it may draw some unwanted attention." to which i replied "Thank you for your kind words of advice, though i care not for the consequences of my actions." and relinquish the information board to him. This particular sibling then proceeds to hurl the sign over the fence of a local supermarket. I feel somewhat nonchalant about the loss of this particular item. Since there happened to be a little of my blood on the sign (I'd suffered a minor laceration on my hand after coming into contact with broken glass) the same sibling questioned "May i enquire as to how you recieved your injury?" prompting me to relive the ordeal. At this juncture, i would like to add that my vocation requires frequent use of knives, resulting in a number of minor lacerations on my knuckles.

Same sibling then proceeds to say "Good evening young sir, I do believe you're a spiffing chap and close assocaites with this fellow here (gesturing to one of my chums) and i do believe that i may have spotted you frequenting the town centre, so I have no qualm with you." During this conversation, this chap's sibling proceeds to cause a scene stating his belief that he would be able to defeat myself and my two chums in a physical battle. The first sibling then states "Excuse me my dear brother, but these chaps are all of the same age as i so i don't believe your assertions to be correct." During this time, myself and one of my pals refuse to lower our gazes or act in any way to provoke these volatile chaps, so they proceed to taunt my other associate. Initially, one of the two ruffians moves towards my chum and enquires as to whether he might be concealing a knife, explaining that his suspicions had arisen from my pal having his hands placed in his pockets. I didn't believe that he would further his altercation since he'd earlier stated his approval of my other associate and i. However, this chaps brother then begins to remove his upper garments indicating that he may be about to commence fistycuffs.

Obviously, at this point i too am preparing myself for an exchange of blows, by positioning my keys between my fingers for use as a makeshift weapon. Also, my other chum proceeds to intervene in an attempt to diffuse the situation, though at the same time i can also see him preparing to deliver the first blow. After some moments, the siblings calm down largely due to the fact that a) they are familiar with one of my chums (who happens to be a member of a large family unit here in Favesham) b) they are aware that i am a close associate of the intended victim and the siblings had spyed the lacerations on my hand c) it would have proven a numerically unfair challenge, and despite the injury-inflicting potential of their 'bling-bling' adornments, i do declare that my pals and i would have been victorious.

This story prompts me to ask the question... what is with the youth of today?

Yes it is, if the U.K. had a population the same size of the United States that's still only 5000 murders, less than half the U.S. murder rate. And you don't have Chavs, but you certainly have "wiggers" and ghettos where crime is rife. The thing with the U.S. is that your rich and poor are generally segregated, i.e. you'll have some rich estate with large houses a good distance from the ghettos and inner city hotspots. Where in our country, since our cities are older and smaller the rich often live in close proximity to the poor which causes a lot of problems obviously. The population in the U.S. is more spread out generally anyway meaning you also have large areas of unhabited land where things can be "hidden" if you get my meaning, in the U.K. there aren't many places you can go to without being seen by at least one person.

I wasn't getting at the U.S. I'm just saying the U.S. isn't some perfect place where crime is none existent, you face similar problems to the U.K.
 
Yep mortiz especially on the hidden part. That runs especially true for drugs. Not talking pot or something either, meth labs are a problem in these rural areas like Golden Valley.

An upside is that the law abiding can kinda do whatever the hell they want too within legal bounds. Dirt sledding with a truck/sled/rope in a neverending wash in the desert is so much fun.

Compare the crim rate with canada, which has roughly the same population, and youll see why guncontrol works.
 
Ofcourse I thought of that, but it seemed way too literal :p Why would you be carrying one? :p

And Ennui, you've never heard of 'hunky-dory'?
 
I have... Hell I think I've even used it a couple times.

Oh and Badger,

"I go "bothered mate" and hand to him, and he chucks it over Tesco's fence. I'm not too fussed."
Why would you be fussed when he threw the sign if you willingly gave it to him, even after you said you didn't care?

Or does "and hand to him" not mean giving it to him? (handing it to him)
 
ok...maybe every one in a 2 million americans have heard it and use it
 
lol what is bringing you to these conclusions? Have you performed extensive research? Where do you live anyway?
 
I've heard it and used it. So that makes TWO in 2 million Americans. :O
 
It appears Kamikazie's research is either outdated or poorly conducted.

We had previously liberated it :E

And yea the phrase 'not too fussed' means I don't care in the slightest :p
 
I know what "not too fussed" means, I was wondering why you even mentioned that. Why would you be fussed over him throwing the sign that you gave him?
 
hmm, must be outdated...i did it a few minutes ago, the info sould have changed since

Yeah, but crime is concentrated between people who commit it. I'm not saying the US is better than the UK, I would never say that, but in Europe overall (and I've lived there for a couple of years) there is much more "pointless" violence (I realize all violence is pointless). The thing is, in the states, crimes are gang-related, not just let's look for a fight.

Btw, wiggers don't pick fights, they're pussies.
 
What exactly is a Chav? Is it like the British equivalent of a gangster wanna-be?
 
whit all this stories europe dont look like a nice place to visit
 
well its nice enough, just keep away from the dark streets that lead to nowhere :p
 
There are 3 main families the Lees, the Boswells, and the Clifftons. The two brothers we ran into were Clifftons. My friend who knew them is a Lee. The families have grudging respect for each other, but have rows too - family and who you know counts for a hell of a lot round here.

What are they, the mafia? :LOL: :eek:
