    Does anyone on here actually sell pegs?

    I'd appreciate your response.

    It's for an important survey.

    On that note, does anyone really understand why all Hearts' derogatory nicknames for us (peg sellers, hobos, vermin) revolve around class? Putting aside the fact that there probably isn't a difference in overall class of the two sets of fans, it just comes across as elitist nonsense. Is that really what matters to them?

    I think this is more troubling than elitist nonsense. The unpleasant BNP undercurrent is there in much of the language that the yams use on their pathetic online forum. Hatred of the traveling community seems to be what the peg selling/caravan stuff is about. The subhuman vermin who require extermination (untermensch) is part of the same discourse - most national socialist racist propaganda revolved around attacks on Jews, gypsies and non-whites. I don't bother with kickback these days but I find it interesting that when I used to have a look none of the members ever challenged any of the fascists who inhabit that space.

    I've noticed 1 or 2 posters on here referring to them as vermin, lets not lower ourselves to their levels.

    I agree, we have to nip any of that garbage in the bud. If we don't we are complicit in it.

    Very important point. Hearts fans tend to be, on average, slightly more conservative and posher than Hibs' support, I feel. But, to make themselves feel better, they seem to overplay that to a ridiculous extent when describing us. It's the mentality of someone who's allowed to be on the fringes of a rich country club, but not be one of the proper members.

    As for the 'vermin' stuff, if you took away the context of it being about a rival football team, you could be forgiven for thinking you were reading some sort of neo-Nazi website, where the other side all need to be 'exterminated' and the like. Depressing stuff.

    Is this for the natural odour wafting in from the South Stand when the uglies and yams play at ER?

    Lucky you. I was doing well in the peg selling game but had to give it up because my habit took control of me. I might even lose the caravan.

    No wonder my heroin habit is unsatisfactory. I’ve been burning pegs and selling spoons to finance the habit.

    No, but I am technically unemployed, and don't wear cardigans.

    In my spare time, I tend to fit it in between sleeping with my sister and taking my methadone.

    I hope to soon be a peg-seller.

    You see, I'm onto a winner because plastic is now the enemy and I, clever person that I am, am spending every spare minute whittling wooden ones.
