The Spoken Truth
Scallies. This group goes by many name but the perfered name is "rude boys" and they like to call themselve "playas". Either way they are recognisable by luminescent orange or some similat vomit inducing colour. Those people higher up the 'rudeboy' heirarchy will generally feature large amounts of gold jewellery as they search demonstrate that they have the 'bling bling' factor. The prefered habitat of these people seem to mbe out side MacDonalds or Burger King on a saturday afternoon, where they can fulfil their own objective of appearing as 'hard'as possible. They travel down the street by limping in a manner known as "bowling" and snapping fingers excessively the second anything happens. These people are never seem without a mobile phone, preferring in fact to talk through this medium at all times even when sitting at a table facing each other. The other day I noticed one of them phoning his compatriot at the other end of Macdonalds to make sure he got some ketchup with his chicken nuggets. The language of this somewhat unique section of society is in fact unique to them and I can only hope to give a vague idea of some of the grammatic rules of this group. A good rule is replace all full stops with 'innit' and all commas with 'you see', and a basic knowledge of other slang terms will soon have you conversing with them fluently. A fine example of this skill of translation is demonsrated in the following phrase: "Im going up town to see my girlfriend, talk to my friends and maybe get some lunch" becomes "Im heading out to see my trim beanie and maybe chill wi' me bred for a while, you see, I might even get some munch innit" The final and in my eyes (or should I say ears) the most excruciating aspect of a scally is the music. In my experience, all scallies love garage and R'n'B and other so called "bangin' choons" |
