What's on your mug?

Normally some dumbass school dropout who spends their time in town centres stealing 'cos it cool mate innit?' normally to sell the stuff on to get some money to buy cider.Townies hate any1 who is not exactly like them and doesnt follow their every move... )ie. punks, goths, grungers, trendies ect) Townies are normally always looking for a fight and even a slight glance will set them off. but only if theyre armed with atleast 6 friends. this can be rather amusing at times. no matter how much money they have they wil still dress like tramps in unmatching jogging bottoms.

an everyday townie argument. townie- oi you...wat ya fukin looking at. innit normal person- what? u fucking startin int ya? innit. normal person- no innit mate. im gunna fucking sort u out. innit... just lemme go get my mates and ill beat ya up. innit. normal person. oh fuck off i cant understand you, learn how to speak.

In America, the word townie is generally used to refer to people who are deeply rooted in their home town and have little or no prospects of leaving it even to go on vacation (except perhaps Aruba or the Bahamas). Generally, they don't go to college except perhaps to community college where they take one or two classes a semester. They or their families probably own a small business, perhaps paving or landscaping. Many of them frequent cheap, dirty bars that have nothing but Bud Light on tap. Some may be heard drunkenly babbling about how Arabs are taking the country by means of their ownership of countless gas stations and convenience stores. The word townie is also sometimes used by hipster douchebags to take shots at people over their accent and how they choose to spend their time.

Sacramentan: So what do you do for fun in Massachusetts? Me: Red Sox, poker; I'm a bit of a music- Sacramentan: "Red Sahx"? "Pokah"? What are you, a fucking townie? Me: Actually, I have a real job, I go to college full-time, my dad doesn't have a landscaping company, and I don't plan to live on the Irish Riviera forever. -You shouldn't be so quick to judge people. I didn't call you a pretentious hipster douchebag just because you wear thick-rimmed glasses and listen to indie music on your iPod while you ride your fixie to the coffee shop.- (- -: I wish I had actually said that part)

An aging hipster in Athens, Georgia. Stylistically ahead of the curve, these are creative people who were hot 15 years ago, but are unfortunately stuck. Alchoholism and drug addiction is thought to be the primary stumbling block to the success of this otherwise friendly species. There is also the problem of big fish/small pond syndrome. The male townies are responsible for having brought trucker hats and mechanics shirts to the fashion forefront as early as 1990. Most townies are in a band, in a pretend band, or dating someone in a band or pretend band. They wear thrift store clothes and ride bicycles or crappy cars. All in all, they consume very little new goods, making them harmless to the environment. Typical townie occupations consist of working at restaurants, coffee houses, record stores, copy shops, video stores, or the local alternative publication. Ironically, many now wear their blue collar shirts literally, as they approach 40 or 50 and have construction or maintenance careers.

*That bar is so cute on weekends, but steer clear weekdays— it's totally packed with lecherous old townies. *I know what you mean. It's so depressing how much they drink on Mondays!
