Yet most of it resonates.
Spam - it's like meat.. but it's for the working class
chippy teas - it's a special meal only for the working class
waste grounds - they all live on or near waste grounds.
hanging around - you wouldn't catch a middle class 'hanging around' things to do.. people to meet.
knock off trainers - you see the working class cannot afford
a fella your dad knows - an utterly moronic statement devoid of thought, meaning and context
weed - it's a name of a drug they use.. they use drugs a lot you see.
the unions - yes, the unions are for the working class.
crap schools - no eton or oxbridge
bunking off - they don't even go to the schools that they are given! ungrateful much?
electric metres - none of them pay monthly for their bills.. it's an alien concept to for them
Brixton - sounds like one of those places urban types do crime in = working class
Toxteth - another place i've heard of.. something to do with riots again? must be working class
hand me down clothes - funnily enough something much more prevalent in the genuine middle classes and upper class
holidays in caravans - much like the travellers they prefer mobile homes to bricks and mortar
**** on a stick - see that piece of dog poo on a stick? that's your best toy that is.
the back of a lorry - thieves. where as normal folk would pay for goods from a shop.. these underlings will steal products from the manufacturer or distributer.
failed MOT’s - I took my car into the garage last week.. it failed because i'm working class.
failed GCSE’s - are you working class? learning is not for you really is it?
bus stops -imagine waiting for a bus.. what a larf! guffaw, guffaw
pay day loans - it's what all the working class use to pay for things before they receive their wages. they prefer loan sharks you see.
Daniel Blake - it's a film about... THEM!
Grenfell - I heard this on the news.. it was something about them
cheap meat - they cannot stand reasonably priced meat let alone expensive meat
pubs - public houses.. this is where they congregate after an afternoon of theft
pints - the measure in which they choose to consume beverages.
tobacco - they love it, it's like cat nip to them
Margret F***ing Thatcher - if you didn't like her.. you MUST be working class
cash converters - like pawn shops but for the working class
job seekers allowance - they get hand out to encourage them to look for work.
zero hour contracts - again more convenient for the impatient and thick skulled. no working class would be salaried.
jam butties - large sandwiches made with jam used in place of an actual meal.
gravy - have you tasted gravy? - you must be working class!
pyjamas - they wear them as day clothes, they're lazy you see and spend most of their time in bed.
broken glass - they grow mistrustful of anything that can carry their own reflection. glass is always broken for a working class.
broken homes - working class marriages never work, too much sex work and adultery.
playing out - working class children will play in the street rather than go to a sports centre or play video games. it makes them tougher in cold conditions.
white lightening - a working class only brand of cider.
E - more drugs
backyards - it's like a garden, but for storing stolen equipment and making fake trainers.
slums - the natural home of the working class
tenements - such large interbred families need to be hose closed together but separated enough to stop contact breeding
The housing - that's what they call housing.
The social - a public house containing extended community events of theft and druggery
The NHS - they love it, they'll clap for it and vote for any toff who wears an NHS badge even if they want to sell it.
grants - they all look like the taller Mitchel brother. not to be confuse with government monies used to preserve stately homes and inherited antiques.
grasses - the criminal class do not look kindly to crime prevention or justice
benefits - they prefer these instead of jobs. they spend them on plasma screen tvs
belts - exclusively for the working class.. none of their trousers fit you see.
credit unions - again banking or anything to do with numbers needs to be simplified
hiding from the milk man - more thievery.. but this time it is much more culturally significant. 'the milkman' appears to be a hybrid st nick/krampus specialising in dairy gifts.
tired dads - all working class fathers are lazy
fierce mums - all working class mothers are aggressive
dying young - reckless behaviour and constant drug use, poor diet.
Aldi - Scandinavian discount food, they buy
Iceland - not the country - a shop of sorts selling pre prepared frozen meals. to stupid and last to prepare fresh cooked meals.
fighting - an aggressive breed these working class
skin heads - to combat head lice most if not all working class with shave off their hair
Grime - rhyming expletives with tribal drumming - also muck.. they're a right filthy breed
underdogs - no working class can be equal in any activity, they will forever be 2nd best in everything.
mental health - unstable and depressed. they should learn how to cheer up! perhaps it is all the drugs and crime they do?
beans on toast - a working class speciality
second hand everything - not like antiques though, just broken things
Brookside - last aired in 2003.. but I think it is something they watched
watching the match - watching teams of athletes compete as entertainment. how very roman of them!
endless cups of tea - you get free tea everywhere if your working class.
futility and empowerment - no matter what they do it doesn't change a thing.. and when they realise that it puts a right smile on their faces
it all buys into this idea of 'the other' that if you are working class you are poor, uneducated, criminal and worse still... that you should aspire to that or wear it as a badge of pride.
'twas I
