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 ya drive a Holden Commodore?????
When ya order one of these while dinin out at the local all ya can eat Chinese buffet?????

you cook dim sims on the BBQ. I’m told these are known as “Moe Crays” (as in the Victorian town of Moe)
Sad thing is that besides the dim sims on the Barbie, I have done all of the above!!!!!

*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’ve got shopping trolleys collecting on your front lawn
