People pulling stupid faces when in their car (usually chavs

[Charvet]

We had "gangsta scowl" and "mouth puckered like a cat's bumhole" from another thread.

Them there is this silly stance when chavs grab the steering wheel at 11 o'clock with the right hand. And the reclined seats.

A bit like these Harley Davidson drivers who sit on their bike like sitting on the toilet. Scowl included.

Ok.

Hmmm. Good point.

I've always ridden mine sitting like that but following your advice, I shall ride side saddle from now on.

Are you on the 24 hour clock, or are we talking late night here?

Saw a lad in a Merc yesterday, pulling 'the face', one hand on the top of the wheel, gangsta lean, white 'illest' SnapBack, gold chains etc.

It's was an R plate C180 coupe with serious rot.

[divetheworld]

LMAO!!

Nearly as bad as the Saxo crowd with the seat so far reclined that all you can see is the top of a baseball cap.

[Charvet]

But in this square shape, more sitting on top of the head than the softer shapes.

This could be me, as I tend to whistle when I'm in the car alone...

My friend and I were laughing at a young lad just the othe day for this kinda thing.
Right hand at 12 o clock, seat back but leaned so far over to the passenger side his head head was nearly resting on the passenger seat!?
Peculiar behaviour.

I see this a lot in London, there normally 5' 4" midgets with the physique of a 10yo boy, all you can see is there head and the G arm pose

LMAO

Came across this really for the first time in my neck of the woods (aren't too many of this kind of twit round my area thankfully) and it happened to be the mate of a kid a couple of doors down the road pulling up in his poverty spec saloon E90 320D with a private plate (judging by the state of it it'd seen better days as well). Trying to give me the 'yeah man, I've got a BMW and you haven't' kind of look, in reality he had a look on his face that had more than a touch of constipation to it (that kind of look you sometimes pull when you just can't get a fart out). His head was a couple of inches from the B pillar he was so far reclined in the seat, left hand at the obligatory 11 o'clock position with his elbow cocked up (and higher than his shoulder) and poking out of the open window with his mates in the back.

[can't remember]

The right hand at 11 becomes very uncool if the airbag deploys. The thing is though, the people who use the 'gangsta grip' are just the type of people you would like to see punching themselves in the face harder than they ever thought possible.

"that kind of look you sometimes pull when you just can't get a fart out"

Priceless

[Monkeylegend]

I prefer the look when a little bit more than a fart comes out.

[Charvet]

So do we give this facial expression a PH worthy name?

[jmflare]

I drive with my right hand at 11 o'clock when just cruising along just because it's comfortable, can't lean my seat back though as it's a fixed bucket seat...

[coolchris]

Makes me laugh when you see people driving along with there hooded tops pulled over there heads my thoughts are why ?.I mean you would probably draw less attention if you had blacked out windows

Is that the clue for 7 across?

[IntriguedUser]

Don't see nothing wrong with 11 or 1 o'clock....

That's where my hand naturally sits, many people I know including my boss do it to, they're not gangstas or chavs. However the seat being reclined back, that's a different story.
