OK I'm an American who just learned a new word, so please, I don't mean to offend, but...
Are you a "bogun"?
And is it playfully insulting, like calling someone from Liverpool a 'scouser'? Or is it worse than that, like calling someone a wog?
It's "Bogan". They're basically people who drink heaps of beer and watch the Aussie footy every weekend and love doing burnouts in their cars, etc.
I'm not one of those. I just live near the woods and ride horses lol.
It's not super insulting. Most bogans don't care if you call them that. They're proud of it almost.
Same with "wog", at least where I'm from. That's usually used as a joke you'd call a mate who is one. I'm part wog myself, but no one's ever called me that as an insult, and I can't imagine why it would offend me anyway lol.
