Morons, Slappers, Pikeys and other assorted scum ....

[ItalianTuneUp]

Or maybe they turned a blind eye because they didn't want their car up on bricks, keyed, aerial snapped off or windows smashed?

 

[ItalianTuneUp]

Right then, it seems a picture is beginning to form:

Morons, slappers, pikeys, 'frustrated mercedes heart attack victim waiting to happen' drivers, airhead bimbos in Chelsea tractors, gypsies...any more? There must be loads more anti-social types missed out here...

 

[ricky s]

I just googled it as well and depending on what you read it is either racist or not.

Pikey bastads. :bannana:

LOL, so made me laugh, thanks

Motorcyclists...........

 

[ItalianTuneUp]

Motorcyclists added to list. What's the reason for their transgressions?

 

[ItalianTuneUp]

And how about 4x4 drivers driving too fast through floods? Someone here lost their Merc recently due to that.

 

[Stratman]

Middle lane hoggers, those who have the audacity to observe speed limits, chavs, mobile phone brayers, bankers, 'personal' stereos that can be heard the other end of the carriage.............

I must lie down......

 

[ItalianTuneUp]

Wow, you just doubled the list with one post- very impressive!

And now we may have Justin Biebers to add to the list, although at least they drove decent cars:

I'll just update the list before it gets out of hand...and we forget this hard-won knowledge.

 

[ItalianTuneUp]

List so far:

Morons, slappers, pikeys, 'frustrated mercedes heart attack victim waiting to happen' drivers, air head bimbos who just dump their range rovers all over the car park and stand around jabbering whilst everyone else is try to get out, gypsies, motorcyclists, 4x4 drivers driving too fast through floods, middle lane hoggers, those who have the audacity to observe speed limits, chavs, mobile phone brayers, bankers, 'personal' stereos that can be heard the other end of the carriage, Justin Biebers of the world.

There's not much of society left that isn't covered by this list...

Some of these are not motorists though, and as this is a motoring forum, perhaps we should keep it driver-related?

So how can it be racist? Which race do the law makers think these people belong to?

From the same website;

"Originally a harmless slang name for a gypsy and/or traveller, being derived from the word 'turnpike.'

Now generally regarded as a term of abuse that encompasses any persons perceived as common"

The term is normally used by those that wouldn't have the balls to say it to them to their face and are usually of the same stock that calls those from the Indian sub-continent the 'P' word and those of an African descent the 'N' word.

Maybe the 'N' word and 'P' word are now ok to use on the forum so liberally...

 

[ItalianTuneUp]

A**hole will be the last word standing...until that becomes unacceptable too.

Then what will people have left? Double plus ungood?

Its in the perception. I deal with plenty of pikeys in my line of work and they take no offence at being called pikeys - world away from N and P

Locals.

Just because you know where you are going there is no need to be so impatient with us who don't.

Haven't you ever been a bit lost???

Just that they are the common enemy for all good car drivers.

 

[guydewdney]

Bad motorcyclists - yes - but most, I would say, are far, far more observant than most car drivers, purely down to their vulnerability.

 

[MCFastybloke]

Contraception is gooooood!

 

[Tinytots]

Just that they are the common enemy for all good car drivers.

So who told them they were good car drivers then

Pikeys have a special meaning for me:

They either rob your shed one night, then turn up the next week selling your own mower back, get quite shirty when you recognise it
They pull up beside you in a Transit, block you in and try to force you to buy something (anything). The last time they tried this I said I was looking for a generator, which they were dead happy about -they were talking about little hondas, then I explained I needed a 400kVA unit (about the same size as their van), they got shirty, told me to FO and sped off!
They show up at the house, asking about the trailer / caravan for sale. The wife explains in bewilderment it's not them. Next day guess what's missing? I know someone who had a Land Rover moved, a caravan dragged out from behind and the Land Rover replaced one night -they even raked the gravel drive clean again afterwards so there was no tracks! (Police not interested, caravan would have been on a ferry within 12h).

...that's a Pikey and very different and quite ingenious from other scum out there.

Crickey where do you live, all I've ever had is a knock at the door asking if we need a tree reduced.

OK, enough.
