No, it's a word for the poor and uneducated. We have names for a reason.

umm i dont use it i might of when i was much younger and "Hippier"

I don't exactly think it is chavy? Its quite common in Essex/East London particularity with the Capt Beef heart/Gong scene.

Anyway the Whole chav thing was so 2005 i cant believe people still go on about it.

Hold on, how can you say chavvy is so 2005 when you've just mentioned Captain Beefheart and Gong? Isn't that a bit, er, 1965 in comparison?

"and the like" meaning non-chavs, so it isn't specifically "chavvy", amirite?
