Ah, Tattoos, or "Criminal Identifiers" as they are known to the police. Amazing how many people get a distinctive tattoo and then do not cover it when doing an armed robbery. Guess you two have been lucky so far
I also consider several of my close friends as the "filth". They also have tattoos and do not recognise that by having a tattoo makes you a criminal. To suggest that I am "lucky" not to be recognised by the thin blue line is somehow offensive to me gooner. I am still waiting for the explanation on the "working class" comment by the way.

Word probably went round that you could easily get your Qantas Club investment back in free grog, given the amount of fly in fly out these guys do.
Yep, Gooner, still waiting for your reply to my question.
Surely the reasoning behind your point of view was based on reasonable and logical thought...... this being the case, it should not be hard to put forward your point of view.
I answered the first bit earlier - there is not equal opportunity or even opportunity for some. The respect bit, well, IMHO you respect everyone as you do not know where they have come from. Which relates to the first part of my answer. Some people have a hard journey as kids which affects the person they become. Often they will have good reason for having given up on ambition.
And as a general comment, ambition is not always a good thing. Often, it is better to be content with what you have or to have modest goals. From a work perspective, you have to watch out for the really ambitious ones, cause they are the ones who will put the knife in and twist it, no questions asked.
You have got to be kidding me Gooner?? ARE YOU A UNION REP? The working class????????? The plutocrats living off the backs of the working class????????????? Seriously, you are in another world with your thinking!! We are no longer working 16 hour days down a coal mine with a canary for security. We are no longer working in sweatshops and sleeping on the floor next to our machines. Sounds to me like you are a "ships lawyer". First to complain about everything and turn the workforce against the person who pays them. Remember without the person taking the risks at the pointy end paying the cheques, the "working class" don't get paid. FAIL.
This thread is to CELEBRATE everything bogan. I am a bogan. I have a hot car. I like to do burn outs. I like to do "bog laps" up the main street. I go to the drags. I go to the speedway. I smoke Winnie Blues (a packet a day) I drink bourbon. I own lotsa flannel shirts and black stovepipe jeans. I wear ugg boots. My mates are bogans. Easy target !!
I also live the high life as well. Does this make me unbogan?
Ahhhh, but you have the money to escape all of that so this prevents you being a true bogan. Maybe it's a definitional thing but I always think of bogans as being poor by definition. And some of the posts do not appear to celebrate boganism, but to take the piss out of it.
My point was meant to be a generic sharing of wisdom for the wider ASF audience out there, rather than aimed at you specifically. Trainspotter, for a start, certainly appears to enjoy the wisdom in my posts.
"Offensive". LOL. Talk about the kettle and the pot and black etc. There was a big smiley after the comment as it was meant to be humorous. However, if you are really that thin-skinned, which I find a little hard to believe, I do humbly offer my sincere apologies..

There is no doubt that "conditioning" plays a part in everbodies upbringing. Genetics has a fair bit to do with it as well. Believe me I have had my share of frontal lobotomy's working for me in one way or another. This is called "LIFE" ... make of it what you will. Some people will always be destined to be "working class" .... so be it. Others will not accept the card of fate and will struggle to better themselves at all costs. IMHO.
The ambitious ones that you refer to are the "ground breakers" who dare punch the glass ceiling. They are not acceptive of what the norm is. They want better, either through hard work or gifted talent. The typecast you refer to are just plain backstabbers in my book. Smell them a mile away. Useless on every front.
Bogans by defintion are not poor. They have a hotted up car and can afford takeaway at every opportunity. Lower socio economic white trash is the word you are looking for in this instance. The posts that I have read deny any such reason gooner. To take the piss out of them is a good thing because they can handle it. Trust me when I state this.
I got my tattoos when my kids were born to celebrate their life on this earth. My sons came back from getting a haircut today. One has a wicked rat tail. I applaud his style. The other got a "Dracula" ... left the sideburns long and a sweepover on top. He is 10. I only hope they keep their roots going.

I have taken plenty of scenic "routes" in my life, but the ones without tats are usually more exciting and adventurous! That's JMO !

Hmmm, I bought a few cases of decent red wine with customised labels, with a picture of each baby on and gave as gifts to friends and relatives. And kept some to drink for their 18th birthday.
Less painful than a tattoo, still lasts a long time, can be given as a gift and definitely not bogan.

LOL gooner ... I did the same but with a fortified wine. Port tends to keep better and by the time you get to drink it you are usually so blind it does not matter what it tastes like because your drunk brain will convince you it is equivalent to "Grandfathers" anyways. LOLOL.

But the biggest con was the X series 250 cross flow. The doors were total ****!
Unless you bought an XF...but the doors were still ****!
But your standard pioneer pumping system in the absence of twetters/sub-woofers within the interior or the boot, just didn't make it!
Did I mention the seals on the doors?

Generic sharing of wisdom for the wider ASF audience? Have you forgotten what you posted already?
Your partner, if she is a feminist, might consider that you are a male chauvinist pig for considering her the property of her father. And may call the whole thing off.
You quote me, mention "your partner" then say "So think before you speak". And you say it wasn't aimed at me?...
