a ‘spiv’ is the name generally given to a shady character who may try to sell counterfeit objects to you at a discounted price.

in the balgowlah boys’ campus, however, spiv is more commonly known as the biggest and most hardout frother on the face of the earth, ancient history/english teacher mr. ian james.

legend as to how he got his name is that apparently one day back in yesteryear, his year 12 cl-ss were bludging and not doing the amount of work mr. james had come to expect of them, so he simply called them ‘a bunch of spivs’. apparently this joke had backfired, with his entire year 12 cl-ss turning on their teacher and calling him ‘spiv’.

ever since then, this name has survived the p-ssage of time and has stuck to the teacher like a redskin to a 7-year-old r-t-rded boy’s palate (roof of mouth for those of you playing at home).

spiv is one of the most renowned dwellers of bally boys, and he himself has come to epitomize the true nature of bally pride. he is also famous for sp-wning the term “dodgy!” after his 2008 year 12 ancient history cl-ss asked him if they could watch the film 300, to which he replied “more like 300 dodgies!”, a claim that the film didn’t stick to the facts of history.

he is renowned for calling boys “dodgy!” if they perform something slightly left-field, if they don’t hand in -ssessments, or if spiv just bl–dy well feels like calling someone “dodgy!”.

rumour has it (started by dr. joshua risbey, md, phd, dr. paul ‘sparta’ barta, phd, phdscpf, and awww shot m) that spiv also indulges in the banging of a certain smoh ah creature that is often found to be lurking g block of bally boys campus.
boy: awww shot spiv!
spiv: dodgy, mate, just dodgy.

boy: oi spiv can we crank on 300 and froth hard?
spiv: ey, ey, i’ll have none of that boys, more like 300 dodgies, eh eh!

boy: oi spiv you’ve been out back banging smoh ah again, haven’t you?
spiv: (bewildered) who’s smoh ah?
-smoh ah walks in the door-
dr. joshua risbey md, phd: awwwwwww smoh ah!

spiv: eh boys, just keep doing your work and stop being dodgy, i’m off to putt some golf-b-lls!
a chav, someone who walks like they have been shot in the knee, and it always seems to be the left one.
spivs normally hang around in large groups because they are p-ssys who cant look after themselves unless they are with their mates
