@ adz and iamaboringperson

In addition to the Marios and Marias, there are aslo the bogans (obviously) who reigned in the same era as the Marios. However, soon the Marios (identified by the mullet) became defunct (early 90s were the time that this species became extinct) whereas the bogan was able to morph! They became the aggressive "homie" modelling themselves on the rapper, and ares till distinguished today as either A) morphed bogan B) aggresive homie (with cap and baggy jeans and whatnot) C) the junkie homie who wreak havoc on the public transport system with their swearing and aggresiveness. Howvever, these last three find their roots in the mulleted bogan of the 80s.

@ Karlos

Glad to be of assistance.

However, there is one aspect of the bogan which I had not touched upon in my previous post:

The Bogan

The "Bogan" is the product of the 60s. It represents the negative side effect of the drug generation which is exemplified by the taste for aggresiveness over no issue at all. The stock standard outfit were stone washed jeans, Torana t-shirts (a make of car here) or of Metallica, Guns n' Roses etc tshirts (they were heavily into Heavy Metal) as well as the ubiquitous mullet. There have been unconfirmed sightings of these species, but unfortuantely they remain on government records as just that... unconfirmed. Although I must say I have sighted one or two on the public transport system. Alas, no government authority will believe me. :-( With heavy metal "losing" its reign over mainstream culutre in the late eighties and its supplanting with Glamour Rock and Grunge, there was a wilting away of this species. They became disaffected, and dispersed. They re-formed into Grunge enthusiasts but mainly into rap as this was more hard core than the other alternatives at the time. This morphing has left a whole generation of "new age bogans" fullof angst and thirst for violence in full view of the public. However, the worst kind would have to be the "junkie homie" of which I touched upon briefly before. But that can wait till a next post.

Here endeth the lesson.
