Clothing with beer logos is an acceptable alternative to above - Waikato is favourite. Black oil stains on skin optional. A curious feature is the haircut, which although short(ish) at the front and sides is long and straggly at the back. The cover thus provided enables one to distinguish the bogan from the redndeck. Habitat: The beach in summer, but only those with free road access. Mt Maunganui provides a typical bogan haunt. Despite the heat, bogans NEVER expose their torsos, even when swimming. Science has yet to explain why they refuse to shed their protective coating of black fabric. Bogans may be found at all times on back roads, at rugby matches, and in public bars. If you can't see a bogan straight away, they may be shy - try watching the older Holden Kingswoods for activity. Feeding: Copious quantities of beer provide all the nourishment a Bogan requires. Reproduction: Bogans appear to be exclusively male. Females are actively repelled by cries of "getchagearsoff" or "showusyagrowler" if they dare venture too close. Like geeks, rugbyheads and best friends of popular girls, the Bogan is the non-viable offspring of apparently fertile humans. Seldom seen in numbers fewer than three. Source: NZ.com & UD |

Weeaboo | Whites | During 2005, the imageboard 4chan experienced an increase in the usage of the derogatory slur "Wapanese". The moderators then used a word-filter, replacing every instance of Wapanese with “Weeaboo” which was a fabricated term originally coined by Nicholas Gurewitch in his Perry Bible Fellowship comic strip. Since then, paradoxically, the term was embraced and has become so popular as to transcend outside its indigenous sub-culture into mainstream. Since Weeaboo is an exact synonym of Wapanese, its usage is exactly the same. That is, it is used to describe a white person who is obssesed with japanese culture. This of course, would include manga and anime. |
