A ‘youth’, it’s just slang for it, usually means young wannabe gangsters causing trouble.

In Australia, you say "o" then try to find a word to put in front of it.

Nothing you or anyone else in your industry can change how many views your video gets, and how many copies you will sell.
Thanks to reddit, those numbers will always be [as many suckers as we can get to click the link] and 0, respectivly.

It’s the word us aussies use to describe what Americans call a pickup truck. I didn’t realise the Brits used it too

YOB. lol sounds like something the British would say lol. Seems to roll off the tongue easily, and especially after a few drinks.

Slang in general is pretty interesting to be fair.

I find Bri'ish slang to be quite fascinating, especially when the origin is explained. Don't think I've heard "backwards" as an explanation before though

It’s a very well understood word in Britain, I wouldn’t expect a newspaper to explain it. Comes from the word boy, but backwards.

It's a fairly archaic term tbh and often the reserve of aged boomers and the right wing press. It's usually also used as a term for working class youth by the aforementioned.

This has been a pretty common thing in late night McDonald’s in Britain for years. And some not late night.

Yob: a rude, noisy, and aggressive young person.
I had to Google it...never heard that word before.

Damn, "yob" must be a really common word in Wales, the article uses it 5x without explaining.

I've hear the song, that's a case of sampling.
When you are an affirmed artist, you usually pay a share for that
