Description
a bogan!Bogan* (pronunciation is similar to the ending of ‘slogan’), is an Australian and New Zealand slang. The term is usually used to describe a person who is perceived to be from a lower class background or of someone whose limited education, speech, blothing, attitude and behaviour exemplifies such a background.
I had been wanting to draw this for quite some time now…so here they, the bogans
I am really, really proud of how this pair turned out, though I’m kind of wishing I had put a durry in one of the sheila’s hands
The bloke is drinkin’ VB -shudders- such horrible, horrible stuff. It’s one of the few beer’s I am unable to stomach. Though seeing as he is a bogan, I thought it was fit for him to have a VB in his hand…we all know that Hahn would be a little too ‘classy’ for him.
Whilst I was drawing this 30 minute sketch and colour, I pretty much listened to Area-7’s song No Body Likes a Bogan the whole time ^^ the song ain’t half bad, it kinda grows on you after a while…

Scanger, Scobe, Knacker and Spide = Ireland

The drawing looks great and pretty realistic but I'd like to correct something ^^ in Poland a stereotypical "dres" would be a guy in a track suit with a baseball bat willing to beat you up if you have any problem and his motto would be "fuck the police" :] Someone like the people you have drawn would be called "prostak" or "proletariusz"... Something like this
it could be "lump" as well, similar to the Russian word

Thank you and also thanks for correcting me, I'm going to fix it up now - I only got that 'dres>/i>' information from Wikipedia - though that thing isn't always 100% right.

You're welcome Wikipedia isn't infallible
one thing I forgot to add about a stereotypical dres - he's usually bald

Unless YOU were drunk the scent of alcohol would convince them that you are not a nuisance
This saved my friend's brother, really

EXACTLY!
Haha, though it doesn't always save people here ;__; some drunks like to start on other drunks - and it's usually the 'non-bogabs' who start on the bogans if they can.

Exactly and it's not like they are hard to avoid either.

Thanks my mum said something similar, but she asked why I put him next to a bogan
I had to explain it too her and link her the song.

I was going to say, they look like our chavs! Yes indeed. I love your representation here, it's very true.

anarchlien In reply to ILoveBrucieD [2010-08-29 12:14:54 +0000 UTC]
Hahaha, they do?
I suppose, they do look really similar to 'rednecks' as well, though our bogans like to think they are more classy than rednecks.

ILoveBrucieD In reply to anarchlien [2010-09-01 22:42:42 +0000 UTC]
I think chavs are the same, they're that kind of person but think because they wear lots of cheap gold jewellery ... you know.

They think it make's them looke 'swanky' haha yeah our bogans are really, really similar - if not the exact same I guess though these people would never consider themselves to be such things and would argue to hell and back on the subject.
But I do give our bogans credit, they are a tad more educated than rednecks...even if they only made it to 1st grade,

ILoveBrucieD In reply to anarchlien [2010-09-03 16:44:14 +0000 UTC]
Yes. I think chavs are a bit more intelligent than rednecks as well, at least typically. They don't in-breed. As much.
