    Skinhead culture coming back?

    Oi

    Mod, Rocker, Punk and Skinhead are all part of Britain's culture and history. These trends are not just fads but real lifestyles that many people take very seriously. The stereotypical racist Skinhead was a media invention, the majority of Skins are peace loving hardworking educated decent people who love music and socialising

    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

      There was one guy who went to a tattooist and wanted 'skrewdriver' tattooed on his forehead... he was so thick he didn't specify the exact spelling... I saw him a few weeks later and he had a line tattooed in font of the 'C' ...twat

            MY first experience of them was in the early 1970s when the biggest of a gang of them wanted to take me down a back alley for a fight. Fortunately I was with a Glaswegian guy who knew how to deal with these situations.

            It still wasn't a pleasant experience though.

                Skin'ead, skin'ead on the wall
                What's it like to 'ave no 'air
                Two black eyes and a broken nose
                Thats the way the aggro goes

                (I could tell you a few stories like the time we went to see the Four Skins in Southall and a riot broke out or when we supported The Ventz who turned out to be Skrewdriver under another name...)
                Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.
