You know you’re a bogan when…

Avatar

So there have been a few articles in the media over the past few days about “bogan” finally being included in the latest version of the Oxford Dictionary.

I was driving in the car today and the topic was mentioned again. It made me wonder what the actual definition of bogan was going to be.

Then I started thinking about all the bogans I know, and what they do from time to time that really defines them as such. I figured it might be fun to start a thread and see what we can all come up with.

I’ll start with this one…

You know you’re a bogan when you post a photo of your baby holding a can/bottle of alcohol, on Facebook.

*‘When you buy your kids stroller from Toys R Us
*When your tattoo is spelt incorrectly
*When you’ve put a massive spoiler on the back of your Hyundai Excel
*When you’ve introduce your partner as ‘this is me woman”. And she’s wearing tights pulled up too high (camel toe or if they’re fat moose knuckle), with a mid-rif top with he guts hanging out and greasy hair with an unpopped zit on her forehead. And you’re wearing shitty black corduroy jeans, rubber single pluggers, flanno with a box of durries in the sleeve and a mullet for a hair cut.
* When you live on home brand cola and cheezles
* When you’ve got shopping trolleys collecting on your front lawn
* When you’ve got more than one car collecting on your front lawn

Don’t get me started. They are the bane of my existence.
