Sticky: Ask the Bogan

Status
Not open for further replies.
I have been called a Rockingham Cashed Up Bogan and was deply offended.

What, with my HSV, jetski, Pandora Jewelery clad girlfriend(s), QP gained access through my FIFO flights and the sunday sesh at the Swinging Pig, how could anyone think I was a Bogan. Anyway, off for my HJ's breakfast with Jacks and coke.
Hmmm, I tick at least three of those boxes, if I count the HSV I owned at one point (and I have borrowed my brother-in-law's jetski - does that count?).

I also have a number of work shirts with reflective stripes, at least three pairs of steel cap boots (polymer caps are more airport friendly) and all my work clothing (reflective or not) has a multinational mining company's logo ....

I also have some ugg boots, I guess that doesn't help either :/

Welcome to the Bogan section MatF. There is a guy down here in Rockingham who sells 'Bogan and Proud" gear at the local markets.
 
Are you a bogan?

Those of UK extraction might want to take the chav test! I was quite pleased to be over 60% Chav. Not sure whether that entitles me to answer any of the bogan questions here.

Now, where is my Burberry stubby holder?

33% Chav and could only answer yes to one ofthe bogan questions!
 
I really need to ask this question.... What defines a bogan? Or for clarification am I a Bogan? As the sun rises I also do, I don my steel capped boots and orange vest ( preferentially I choose comfortable clothing, thongs shorts and tee shirt in summer and trakkies jumper and runners for winter at work. but due to Safety standards the boots and vest must suffice).I own and run a business that has made it possible personally for every person ever in Australia to make a land based and mobile phone call in the last 12 years. I have friends that work in the west for the miners earning more money than I, friends that are accomplished Architects, equity fund managers etc. They earn more than I. My daughter made Silver before me. I drink at the QC and on the plane often, have QC life, travel business class when I can.I have never owned a Holden, though I've had a falcon ute.What am I.......Further questions will be answered to clarify my positionYour helpPVCMenace


I'd call you border line... It's now dependant on what you drink, and how much debt your in for things like unnessacerily large houses \ non-essentials and if your debt exceeds what you can reasonably pay off without incurring more debt...



Just went through this thread... :mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen:

Anyway, Things Bogans Like might be another definitive reference for New Age Bogans:
Things Bogans Like

I'm sure bogan AFFers will relate to the following:
#54 – Thailand « Things Bogans Like
#50 – Discount Airlines « Things Bogans Like


This should be mandatory reading... I do like the $100 added due to the dignity cost of bogans in tiger terminal...


(My qualification to answer this thread due to my status as a bogan observer, quite a few of my mates are bogans and proud, although that could mean I'm a bogan in denial...)
 
Love the thread!:lol::lol::lol:

Of course, if you come from Nyngan (on the Bogan River), then you will have "I'm a Bogan and proud of it" displayed everywhere including car stickers, T-shirts, stubby holders and what ever.

When I was teaching there, I often wondered if the kids really understood what "Bogan" meant. Didn't enlighten them.
 
If you are the wife of a former prime-minister and you encounter his daughter, from a previous marriage, in the Chairman's Lounge at Brisbane airport, is the correct protocol just to lay straight into her with both fists, or should you greet her with a polite "Let me at the scrag!!!" first?
