A 'beath by any other name

'Beath - As in Elizabethan. Not the era. The place. And it's not even that. I mean you do not have to have geography to be a truth beath. It is attitude, fashion... and an aura.

A beath does not care if their English is correct and probably frequently uses 'f' instead of 'th'. Through laziness not speech impediment. AND these people are likely to say fuck-N ... when it is in actual fact pronounced fucking - I-N-G, ing - I mean if you are going to swear at least have the class to do it properly.

These people probably have doorbells that play their footy team's song when it is 'buzzed' (though this is also a trait familiar to fish wives).

The women probably wear that really blue eyeliner thick and have a hard edge to their lips and wear crushed velvet type hippy skirts or else bubble-gum jeans and wheel around or drag along some kid they are forever screaming at in their earpiercing whining high pitched manner while they drag on their fags in their shazza type manner.

The men walk around in black t-shirts (and perhaps jeans) either with a lewd unsubtle message on them, the name of their favourite car manufacturer or heavy metal band - sometimes over their t-shirt they will wear a flannelette shirt (druggie shirt/flanny) with all the buttons open in a jacket like fashion. They may sport a mullet (or mull-ay if you want to be posh).

[Incomplete, it was an interrupted thought stream.]
