Firstly - people; or more precisely, the people one is likely to meet on a given day.
Anorak - A fur coat garment, with hood, worn by Eskimos or Inuits. From that the people that wear them: train spotters, plane spotters, pylon spotters, bus spotters, mail van spotters, hearse spotters, Formula 1 spotters, red spot special spotters, etc.
Chav - from "Chetenham Average", the sort of lad likely to be clad in Addias, a Burberry hat, with a pregnant 14-year-old girlfriend and a liking for "bling".
Carnie - Austin Powers Sums this one up nicley. "Carnies. Circus folk. Nomads, you know. Smell like cabbage. Small hands."
Derro - Australian slang, derived from the word 'derelict'. Means hobo, bum, no-hoper, poorly-dressed, unkept person.
Parkie - Park people, those people who live in parks be they council or trailer. The US eq. of Trailer Trash.
Pikey - Pikeys are a group of dirty, theiving and inbred... Pikeys. They get tired of the romany way of life, and start pestering the council for housing. Once the do, they park their dented Ford Escort outside the local school bus stop, and threaten to beat up the bus driver when he asks it to be moved.
Townie - similar to a Chav. A townie is normally aged between 11 and 15. Listens to so-called 'garage' music such as Blazin' Squad and So Solid Crew, neither of which is REAL garage music; simply pop music with a stammering kid in fake diamonds fronting the band.
More to come.
