Missed this thread until now.
What a fascinating read and some intriguing solutions to the issues raised.

Makes a refreshing change from all the threads about Priority boarding failures or lack of 3ply toilet paper onboard aircraft :D
 
I think some people in this thread don't know the difference between bogans and yobbos.
 
Being a "Bogan" is a wee bit subjective IMHO.
Its like my dear old dad used to say "Broke is a temporary situation, Poor is a state of mind"
I think that just because one is lacking in a lot of the (more subtle ) social graces, that doesn't necessarily mean one is a Bogan. I have met plenty of successful , moneyed and supposedly upper class folk , who have no manners and behave appallingly.
My definition of "bogan" has little to do with income or wealth and more to do with "nekulturniy" or lack of cultre. A bogan is uncouth and goes to great lengths to let others know how uncouth and lacking culture he or she is.
 
Please oh please lets not start this thread again. Its been more than 30 days since the last postings and it really should be allowed to die a natural death.

And in the United Kingdom they'd be called "chavs". But would they be allowed into the Concorde lounge?

True - and Bogans can be Yobbos

To me a Bogan is a socio-economic thing. They can be nice people.
What you describe, I would call that a yobbo.
