I'm glad you raised this Pookie.
The "chav" thing is ridiculous. It's become (wrongly, in my view) an acceptable way for people mock others. Generally it seems to be a fairly middle class thing, a way to make fun of those less well off than themselves. All snobbery sucks.
The thing that annoys me most, is that generally, on the occasions I've heard people using the term "chav" as an insult towards others it seems to stem from people who would usually go mad if someone were to insult or label them in a similar fashion. Hypocrites.
