I almost got knifed today D:

Couldve just knocked his arm away and smacked him one in the face at the same time, doubt his buddies wouldve helped. If they all ran at you, then the best attack ive found is to just run away. That way you instill fear in your opponent, they never know when you'll descend from the rafters...LIKE A BAT!

BUT i do agree, get out of the UK. Its just chavs everywhere north of London. Anyone notice most of these killings and such happen in that section of the UK? Duuuuhhhhhh...

Im outta here as soon as i can. Everything is stupidly expensive, you work your ass off for pretty much minimal pay (shit, we have the highest working hours in all of fcuking europe for god sake!). Its just a country of loud, violent, fat, shagging bastards scum...champions!!...CHAMPIONS!!

GTFO while you still can...

It doesn't necessarily mean at the moment you're being attacked. Find out who it was or what neighborhood they're from. (I dunno how it works over there but it sounds like your typical set over here, which is called a hood even if it's not physically the same neighborhood.)

He was wearing a hoodie so there was no way for me to indentify him anyway, since I can't make out his features. All I know is that hes big, and he has an IQ of around 12.

If someone threatened me with a knife, i'd dodge his swipe, grab his arm, bust his elbow, jump in the air, do a somersault, land in a cool position, dash forward, do a tornado kick, followed by an au batido to the head and punch him in the gut, throw him to the floor as he is squealing in pain, take his knife, break it and before turning around, i'd say some phrase, like a parthian shot and leave with a grin on my face.

But if he wouldn't be alone i would first do a back-flip and then...

Damn that sucks then man. And yeah I agree he's pretty stupid even coming from a criminal perspective that fool didn't even get to jack you for your money or anything, he basically just put himself at risk as well so I agree.
 
Don't think that France doesn't have it's own problems which you may or may not be able to tolerate.

You have to spend some time researching living abroad before you can think objectively about it all.

Having said that, I think the UK is a rat-race, and I'd like to go to pastures anew, where hard working law abiding people are valued and prized ,as soon as I have the opportunity.

I just heard that Australia have made it slightly easier for Brits to migrate there. It's also relatively easy to move to Canada or New Zealand, they all operate a points system for immigrants, based on your skills and qualifications.
 
I'm sick of chavs, I'm sick of walking round them, or crossing the road to avoid them.

Now I just walk through them, for some reason I've adopted a more confident walking stance over the last few months: Hands by sides, not in pockets, chin up high not looking down at the ground, limited eye contact with passers bye, instead of avoiding their gaze. I've started doing this quite consciously and it gives off good signals, I've walked through groups of chavs on the pavement who haven't done shit; I think, owing to the confident manner in which I carry myself.

I encountered 2 groups of chavs recently, on friday, there were a group on BMX bikes, I walked in between 2 of them, but one wheels forward to close the gap, I allowed the possibility that he wasn't just being a twat and didn't see me and walked around him and then he wheeled back again blocking me off once more, I kept my path walked into him, pushed him out of the way walked 30m down the road and then he shouted "come on then" or some such cowardly rubbish.

And at work ( I work in a nightclub) I pissed off another chav by not making way for him, so his friend came up to me and head butted me, but stopped just in front of my face in order to make me flinch and make himself look hard infront of his friends. In fact I just stood their, and held eye contact, didn't flinch a little and asked if he had a problem. He turned around and went, his friends looking on with his ego and rep damaged.

I hate England.
 
The thing that worries me is the rate at which anti-social behavior is increasing, the UK will be in anarchy in 20 years.
 
Just say "You think that's a knife?" and pull out a machete.

Well everybody messes up the first time,when at the elbow busting-2-jump.
You see you gotta position yourself under his arm, ready to jump. So when jumping you actually KILL HIS ELBOW.
And the somersault has to be a bit late, so as to make the cool landing a bit more dramatic.

Actually, why don't you come to Estonia? This place has minimal crime, and i haven't seen any chavs before 10 pm yet.
Plus the people are nice.:)

Plus: there are no catastrophes here!:D NONE!

Not yet, but when the chavs get their cheap flights there, they'll be out there soon enough.

But seriously I might consider East Europe one day.
 
What we need is a country where you need a masters degree to stay.
People with PHD's would live tax free.

Well, like I say, anywhere in europe, japan, australiasia and canada are fine.
 
Scotland is filled to the brim with chavs and neds. ;( It makes me so sad.

Everybody having a master's degree is unrealistic. Having a master's degree is sometimes unreasonable anyways. In real society, having a master's degree while possibly ensuring you get more pay, will result in fewer jobs as more people are less willing to hire you to pay that premium you require.

Besides... an elitist society would suck ass.

True. What we need is some sort of democratic/technocratic elitism. Weed out all the people who think that it'd be daytime all the time if the moon exploded.*



*Last year in my friend's Uni chemistry class, someone actually thought that.
 
LOL

My dad used to teach at my school, and in the only lesson where I was in the class and he was teaching, it was a revision session before the GCSE exam, and the head girl raised her hand and asked: "So is the sun a star??". My dad face palmed.
 
That doesn't beat a girl in my class.

- Was this picture taken in the ice age?
 
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I think we need to start a new thread about this.
 
That's weird, when I was in England I met only kind and lovely people...:|
 
None of those stories beats a person in my class that believed krypton from the periodic table was kryptonite and so also believed that kryptonite was a real substance. *facepalm*

There are a lot of kind and nice people in England, however it contrasts with a significant minority who are definitely not nice and kind.

Where did you go when you went to England?

Where you go and at what time factors a lot into who you will meet

This country generally isn't so bad but there is quite a large amount of scum in places

Yeah, there's probably a majority of people here who are basically normal and don't cause any problems, maybe even nice people. But it's the minority of pond-life-scum that you notice, because they're the ones who try to knife you.
 
If I emigrated, I'd probably go to Holland, just for the accents. Sweet, sweet accents.

Australia! Only bikers get knifed here!
 
This happens sometimes here, but the violence is not so random.

Nonono. i watched that video that TGB enjoyed about the Dutch TV show. The presenter quite explicitly said "Shecks".

Lies. You sure they didn't say "sexueel" which means "sexual"?

It's misunderstandings like this that brought us abortions like the "Dutch accent" of Goldmember in the Austin Powers movie :frown:
 
Come to Los Angeles, its always safer here...

Seriously, i've heard many stories like yours, they don't surprise me, that shit happens all the time, except maybe with bats, pipes, chains, or a gun.
