No... I smoke Holidays. And I have a Ford XR8. And the mother of 2 of my kids shops at Bi-Lo, only because we miss Franklins.

Anyway, I'm off to Fountain Gate. There are some good discounts on Plasma TVs at Harvey Norman. Thank Howard for the baby bonus!

Do you wear thongs or joggers with your Adidas trackie pants?? do you smoke "Winnie" Blues or Reds, Long beach ultra's or do you prefer "Dunhill blues"? do you sport a "Mullet"? Do you have a best freind named Darrel, you call MAAAAAAAAAATE and if so do you abbreviate his name to to DAZZA? Do you Drive A HSV Commodore? if your answer to these question is yes to Thongs, Winnies, Yes yes and yes ...Then yes you are a Bogon....

Are you calling me a bogan? I would be flattered if you were. Since the cancelling of Big Brother last year, Australia seems to be turning its back on its bogan culture. Very sad, really.

By Mis-Cat• 26 Jan 2009 09:25
Mis-Cat

it depends on how bogon you are as to whether you refer toit as a Slab or Carton and how it rhymes..for instance it's a "Carton of Cold" and a "Slab of VB"

ncmedia: I think the correct term is 'a slab'!

Maybe I'll just settle for vegemite on toast.
