Full Sleeve tatts.

Dare you to tell the yakuza they're bogans.


Wearing a footy jumper to a game once you've passed the age of 16.

Umm slight dichotomy on this one, I proudly wear my wallabies and qld reds jerseys to the Rah Rah as do many others. Do bogans drink grange?

Wearing the Australian flag draped over your shoulders, for any reason.

Especially, when it's upside down, as a cape.

16. If your idea of an adventure holiday is 7 nights in Bali with the free upgrade from a 3 to 4 star hotel thrown in by Flight Centre

Oh & + the Complimentary western breakfast as a ' bonus "

That will get the punters in..:mrgreen:
 
Well, they didn't have Bintang singlets for sale in Bali (that I can recall) when I was there for my 18th birthday.
Mind you, that was 31 years ago. The mushrooms were good though. :oops:

Did go along to the Largs Pier and Elizabeth WM club to see Cold Chisel. A goon of Brandavino was the go then. $2.99, can't go wrong!

And yes, have seen AC-DC play a few times, and ZZ-Top.... :oops:
:oops:

(I'm much more refined now. Haven't bought Brandavino for years...:lol:).
I guess you may have been to the Bridgeway in the old days as well
 
You're a bogan if you get flustered because you think flying is exciting.
You're a bogan if you put your feet up on the wall when in a bulkhead seat.
You're a bogan if you actually care whether they have your preferred meal or not.
You're a bogan if on a flight you wear any of tracksuits, singlets, thongs, inflatable neck rest, shorts, stilettos, fluorescent clothing or tinted safety glasses.
You're a bogan if you bring kids onto a flight who you cannot control.
You're a bogan if you cannot drink beer without being loud.

Yikes, you may be starting to include a number of AFFers in that list. :lol:

What's wrong with tinted safety glasses? They're perfect to wear while swimming, ocean or pool, and as general sunglasses. UV protection measured against a known standard, and the right price so you don't care if they get scratched, lost or stolen.

I actually have a box of 10 at home for general everyday use.

Gee MunitalP. you make it sound like being a Bogan is a bad thing. For many, it's a badge of honour, buddy.
 
None of the above.

I don't even own any thongs.

I admit to having two pairs of Ugg boot slippers (ankle high). One with plastic soles for outside use. That's like mailbox or garbage run only, not to the shops BTW.
 
Disappointingly a little side bar that I saw in yesterday's Advertiser (10 Nov) is not available on line. So I'll type out the 13 ways to tell if you're a began. I thought a number of AFF members might like to check the criteria.


  1. You think Tex Walker's mullet is not ironic
  2. You have a pair of "good thongs"
  3. You names your daughter Khe Sanh, but spelled it Que S-Anne
  4. You hide the five-litre goon bag when friends come over, and bring out the 1.5 litre goon bag
  5. You still can't believe Chopper didn't win best picture.
  6. You are going to put wheels on that Torana in the front yard
  7. You give your three year-old a 600ml energy drink. Why not?
  8. You tailgate, because it's assertive driving. Besides, HSVs weren't designed to drive at 60km/h
  9. You have two suits - one for court and one for the races.
  10. You drink red tinnies during the week, Crownies on the weekend.
  11. You think it's un-Australian not to have a Southern Cross tattoo.
  12. You have a separate section in your wardrobe for Bintang singlets.
  13. You yelled out "Play some Acca-Dacca!" during Jersey Boys.

Bogans' heroes:
Taylor "Tex" Walker, Chopper Read, Warwick Capper, Darren Lehmann, David Boon, Andrew Symonds, Jimmy Barnes, Pink.

Well I can own up to good thongs and having partaken of the good goon on special occasions when younger. If I was stupid enough to go to Jersey Boys, I might have yelled out play some Acca-Dacca. But all those previews on Qantas aircraft were enough for me. Boonie and Barnes-ie are up there on my list of favourites.

Anyway, who is the most and least Bogan among AFF?

Point 6: To do that I have to move the Camira out of the car shed and then I have to move the guards for the Kingswood to get to the wheel for the Torana.

But apart from that I fail on all the other parts...LOL
 
Torana - Tons Of Rust And No Acceleration

I had the Kingswood though. HJ station wagon. Put a WB front on it, and a 350 chev. That probably qualified for some Boganism
