You're a Bogan too. Just take this test

By Lucy Kippist From: news.com.au April 26, 2013 12:08PM


Do you wear tracksuits?

Do you have a tramp stamp?

You might be a Bogan. Take this test.

DOES your nickname end in 'azza' or 'o'? Do you own a flannelette shirt? Does your ideal weekend involve slouching on a couch with an esky of beer in front of the footy?


Do you regularly use the word, 'top' to describe something as good? Well, hate to break it to you, but you're a bona fide Australian Bogan. At least according to this new app, the Bogan Test, designed by Simon Hubbard.

Instructions for use: Download app for 99 cents. Use liberally on friends and family. Post the humiliating results to social media immediately.

The test is a series of 100 questions which cover a whole range of topics. For example, bogan names: Is there a hyphen in your first name? And, are your kids named after precious stones? Lifestyle: Does your house have wheels? And is there a bathtub in your backyard? Or even fashion choices: do you wear tracksuits in public without exercising? And the list goes on…

The bad news, according to Mr Hubbard, is that once you've received your score there is no way of going back. In other words, you can't un-bogan yourself.

"Sorry, but the [inner Bogan] will always come out every now and then. Like a drug addiction, you're never completely cured – you just have to manage and control it! Or, you can just accept and embrace your Bogan traits," he said.


He also said that while most Australians would like to think we're getting less Bogan, our true bogan selves will never be too far away.

But don’t just take his word for it. Give yourself a warm-up run on the test! Answer the first twenty and post your score below. And just for the record, I got 16/100.

1. Are you named after a car, motorbike or fashion label? eg. Mercedes, Harley, Chanel
2. Is there a bathtub, washing machine or couch in your backyard?
3. Have you ever mowed the lawn and found a car?

6. Do you go outside to use the toilet?
7. Do you stand in your front garden and drink beer?
8. Have you spent more money doing up your car than what you paid for it?
9. Do you wear your bathrobe outside?
10. Are thongs your primary footwear?

12. Have you ever brewed your own beer?
13.Do you smoke like a chimney?

STRAYA CUNNT

0.

Closest I came was walking through trains.. but I don't really like that and only do it to avoid druggos, and we have a washing machine on the front porch, but only because someone new just moved in and haven't bothered moving it further.

0/20
Huh..

6, nothing wrong with taking a leek in the backyard

2/20

Taking a leak outside and moving between carriages of trains

Nothing bogan about home brew in my experience, either.

I think you're okay if you are playing Cold Chisel whilst you're brewin'

This.

Fuck paying for booze.

-PB

It depends on how strong your brew is. The people that turn up with their home made rums and whiskies with massively high alcohol content in soft drink bottles tend to be bogans.

Pissing outside is fine.... But I only do it when there is no potty around.


The only one I'd say I'm borderline on is the thongs one. Mostly wear boaties or canvas shoes, but in summer I fiend the thongs!

what horseshit.........................if you don't at least score a 5 then your not Australian.....your just an imposter......go and get edumucated.....;)

To be honest, I feel 'Straya' sounds nothing like a slurred pronunciation of Australia.

Always thought 'Uhstraalya' is far more accurate.

:lol: :lol:

2, 6, 10, 19. Actually disappointed I only got 4.

I have a flanny and I have pissed in the backyard.

I only wear the flanny to work as I don't want my good jackets ruined :lol:

Thongs as footwear - yes

Toilet outside - until I renovate and add an ensure in my house, we only have 1 bathroom. And whenever I need to go, my mrs needs to go also. I've peed outside many, many times.

I wore an Australian flag cape as a joke once, does that count?

Tbh I'm surprised no one has said 11 yet. Unless I missed someone or they're too embarrassed to confess they have one :lol:
