Re: Common

Swearing used as a sort of punctuation in conversation, spitting on the ground, being drunk in public, lack of basic manners and consideration for others.

Re: Common

I think it's an old-fashioned term for poorer and less educated people. Jarvis Cocker came up with a great song though ......

Didn't everyone of our generation wear clothes from older brothers and sisters.
