Flash gits (of which typically tend to be from the Bad Moon tribe) is a British perjorative for anyone who flaunts their wealth. Think Essex wideboys, “loadsamoney,” “considerably richer than yao”. It’s not a race thing, it’s an economic/social class thing, dating from the 80s, and we’ve always been OK with that in Britain. I have a “loadsateef” clan I’m slowly working on - base colour is red though as eff trying to do yellow.

They are really specific versions of British societal dregs from the 80s and 90s. From football hooligans to Essex boys. Combat 18 style Neo Nazis, and Boy Racers through to Braveheart Neds. All wrapped up in the trappings of punk culture. mango sentinel posted:The ascent of Disco and Blaxsploitation were concurrent.

I think it's because I ran across some obvious hip hop inspired Flash Gitz when first learning about Orks a couple years ago and it made me kinda vigilant. I understand the origins of the unit and who they're supposed to be mocking, I've just seen it go bad in other directions.

You just need more exposure to bad moons, I prescribe painting a bad moons army yourself and theming them any way you want. Then we will judge your decision.

I wondered if Orks would support the Dark Side (more dakka?) or the Light Side (Faster?) of the force, which got me thinking about Ork philosophy and then:quote:If youse sees Gork on da road, krump 'im!

The first step on the path to the dark side is "Fear". Ergo Orks would never turn to the dark side.
