      I have a load of words used on this forum which I have no Idea what they even mean.. Its more of a regional dialect or slang.

      Chav.
      Innit.
      Agro
      A Row
      Ponce
      Daft
      Knackered

      Christ I didn't even know what Bollocks were until some English guy told me at a pub while watching an LFC match.

      Translated as:

      Chav. - Mainly England supporting types usually found in the south of the country, normally wear a lot of Burberry not to be confused with Scallies, who wear a lot of Lacoste!!
      Innit. - Young people's version of isn't it
      Aggro - Usually used when describing a bit of a punch-up at or around the match
      A Row - Argument, that could lead to aggro
      Ponce -  A term for a gay/effeminate person!
      Daft - can be used to describe someone who's a bit stupid/or does stupid, harmless things for a laugh
      Knackered - Tired.

      So a Chav could be considered a "Casual" or even Hooligan?  I thought it was more of a "White Trash" term.

      It is, sort of, kind of describes someone who wears cheap, really cheap tracksuits.  I was taking the piss somewhat. In no way does it describe a casual or a supposed hoolie

      But it is a southern-media invented word, I personally hate it, especially those that use it up here in Liverpool.

      In the wider sense it does mean the Burberry set and all that goes with it but the Chelsea rabble seem to better define the word, in fact they should take a copywright out on it.

      "It's/is all about" - used on Facebook mostly I've noticed.

      E.g.

      John is all about town tonight!

      John thinks it's all about town tonight!

      http://www.facebook.com/pages/ItsIs-All-About-Shut-Up/326138157872?ref=ts

      How fitting.

      Might just be people my age.

      Some kind of trend at the moment where people say 'they are all about' something.

      For example.

      David is all about going to the pub tonight.

      David thinks it's all about going to Anfield today.

      Does my head in.

      No one says it in real life, so why on FB!

      I hate when people end a sentence with 'so it is' or 'so it was' or 'so she did' or 'so she does'. For example, 'Sophie went to the supermarket, so she did. It was very enjoyable, so it was. She thinks she will do it again, so she will.'

      Gets on my tits. Think its a Northern Irish thing, its dead annoying.

      I hate the word "chav". It's such a shitty word, it's so nondescript. That's it, really.
