I really dislike Townees. It's so hard not to get involved
when the're mouthy.

Last weekend some cheeky gimp who'd had a few tried to take
on me and my mate, we had a quick conferal then walked away.

Townees?
What does that mean?

They're typical "bad boys" they tend to drive crap beaten-up
"Customised" Ford Fiestas, wear puffa jackets. Listen to so
Solid Crew, drink crap lager. Be loud and obnoxious after a
few beers and attempt to start fights.

Are they criminals too, or just play the game?

Yeah, they are like working class (and I'm not bieng a snob
here) bad boys who will try to take on anyone. They do where
shit 'designer' clothes (you know, the ones with BIG
Hilfiger logo's etc) and drive shitty cars with max power
stickers in the back. I didn't actually realise they were
drawn to DnB, I thought they only liked hard house. They
tend to go round in gangs and talk in very twattish accents.
I don't like going to certain clubs now cos you are always
looking over your shoulder in case one of them trys to glass
you for 'lookin at them'. oh, and they are ALL WHITE.

and listen to oasis.

Yeah and they all listen to Eminem too. They also smoke
really shite quality "soap bar" weed rather than proper
stuff like bud or pollen.
They also nearly all own PS2s and wolf whistle at women in
the street. My brother said once that in this particular
"Townie Hive" they should oestrogenise the water supply. I'm
not normally in favour of population control, but I think I
could forgive this :)

ahaha, he makes loads out of them. they also have little
wispy shitty moustaches!

and are called Lee or Nathan

Yeah and they take E's and wear Ben Sherman shirts! They're
always called either: Jon, Lee, Gareth, Dave or a weird
sounding name based on their surname.

The usually go to crap clubs filled with like minded
individuals and fight for the favours of tarts.

FUCK I HATE THEM.

Ya know, we talked about them in sociology and they have
been created due to the de-industrialisation of Britain.
This is as there aren't any apprenticeships for engineering
etc like there used to and so instead of dropping out of
school and going into these like the past, they just roam
streets, especially in places like sheffield where I live
and the steel industry went to pot, thats why we have so
many!

yeah..frat boys are the upper middle class manifestation of
american 'townees'
actually...the majority of kids around here fit b3n's
description..except they favor mainstream commercial hip hop
and metal over hard house (big fans of insane clown posse
and eminem)
in fact..theyre so common we dont even have a name for them

ACTUALLY, they *DO* look like the trailer trash white boys
you get on ricki lake talking about how elizabeth-jean ran
off with his daughter that is in fact their niece too.

I gave a townee mate a listen to squarepusher. He said i
must be fucked in the head, and laughed. Hes ok though, he
once stole a car so me and some mates could get a pick up.
But dont tell anyone.

:)

I think you should respect any sub culture. As a teenager I
was a rock/grunge kid and I think it is good when you are
young to be able to identify yourself with a culture that
you have to find yourself.

fine, but can't they identify themselves with a better
culture? they've plainly picked a piss poor one

I, again, agree with B3n, I'm all for people belonging to a
sub culture (that's what this is, the AT.Nu site), it's just
theres is a totally anti-social one.

they piss me off: this is how to blend in with them: buy
some reebok classics, white nike tracksuit bottoms, and a
dirty pink hackett polo shirt. garnish it with a baseball
cap and a cheap gold chain: refer to people as your
"bredrin" and smoke cheap, nasty cigarettes which you steal
off your equally cheap, nasty mother. you will be one of the
herd. of cunts...
