« * Burberry is a clothing company whose products were initially associated with the chav stereotype. Burberry’s appeal to chav fashion sense is a sociological example of prole drift, where an up-market product begins to be consumed en masse by a lower socio-economic group. Burberry has argued that the brand’s popular association with chav fashion sense it is linked to counterfeit versions of the clothing. « They’re yesterday’s news », stated Stacey Cartwright, the CEO of Burberry. « It was mostly counterfeit, and Britain accounts for less than 10% of our sales anyway. »[22] The company has taken a number of steps to distance itself from the stereotype. It ceased production of its own branded baseball cap in 2004 and has scaled back the use of its trademarked checkered/tartan design to such an extent that it now only appears on the inner linings and other very low-key positions of their clothing.[23][24] It has also taken legal action against high-profile infringements of the brand. In August 2006, a company introducing tuk-tuk vehicles into the south coast resort of Brighton, England named one the « Chavrolet » which had it painted in the distinctive Burberry tartan. However, the company soon had to withdraw this vehicle when Burberry threated proceedings for breach of copyright.[25]

la tête

voyant ceci je me dis ah oui ce disque je l’ai vu trainer dans des bacs pendant des années et je ne l’achetais jamais car j’avais déjà la BO d’eraserhead et puis, vous savez, à un moment eraserhead est devenu tellement omniprésent que j’en ai eu ras le bol et que j’en ai encore aujourd’hui ras le bol d’eraserhead jamais de ma vie je ne pourrais revoir ce film là. bon. par contre j’avais depuis bien longtemps ce disque là, null de peter ivers, et tous les 3-4 ans je l’écoute en me disant il est vraiment pas terrible ce disque et pourtant j’y tiens et comme la fameuse chanson de la fille dans le radiateur est d’un certain peter ivers et que c’est le même voilà t’il pas que je tombe sur scaruffi qui dit « a collection of demented pop-jazz ballads, like Captain Beefheart leading Chicago. » alors là c’est un exemple flagrant d’erreur de scaruffi, je me dis encore, et le soir j’écoute le disque de peter ivers… que je trouve en cette année 2008 très bien et c’est vrai que le premier morceau est un peu comme scaruffi prétend. dont acte. croyez le ou pas.
