Eh, so what happened exactly? I'm not too great at interpreting Australian yet... I take it someone got shot though? I'm sorry to hear that. Was it gang-related or something?
I think the big bloke said the small bloke slept with his cousin so he pulled out a gun and chk chk boom?
Sound like a West Virginia story to me... Oh wait, the small bloke slept with the big bloke's cousin? Oh that makes more sense.
were tehy related?
could be? might make it more interesting lol

So she uses a little sound effects instead of saying "the wog dude pulled out a gun and popped a cap in the other wog guys ass" and the media has a frenzy over it.
There are more important news articles round the world AND in Australia ATM without making headlines about some half pissed chick using some sound effects while talking.........For F sake we have people starving all round the world, Crimes against nature, child porn, crazy jap whalers etc and CHK CHK girl makes headlines?????
Sorry to rant on this one but this story when I saw it for the first time made me embarrassed to be Australian if this is all we have to cough up and put in the media for the rest of the world to laugh at.
Shame on Australian media.....
Hey Buddy, don't take all of the credit. Trust me, the media in America is just as bad.
Oh yea the freaking news media is run by shock jocks ...
One Idiot said people who're getting foreclosed upon are ending up homeless ... WTF ... I tell ya Ignorance can be cured, stupidity, man that spreads and has no treatment.
Cool.
Buddha.

The story is, there was a shooting outside a club in Sydney. All the media shows up. That bint walks over to camera, tells a story about a fat wog shooting a skinny wog for sleeping with his cousin, the media report it as what happened. The police phone up the bint and ask her to make a statement, then she says I didn't see anything I made the story up. Now she is a 'media sensation'.
The sooner she disappears from our tv screens the better.
Bogan?
Wog?
Bint?
Australia and America are two countries separated by a common language.--- slightly edited...
I spent two months in Perth and Melbourne years ago. People must have taken pity on me because I understood (almost) everything they said...

A WV story? Umm...Yeah...Not funny...
QuoteWog : person of Mediterranean origin. A milder insult than the same word in the UK and perhaps elsewhere.
Quotebint is British slang for a woman or girl, but it is always disparaging and offensive and signals the user as lower class and unrefined.
QuoteBogan : person who takes little pride in his appearance, spends his days slacking and drinking beer

Haha, I'm sorry. It's a Pittsburgh thing I guess... No offense to anyone.
Brits and Aussie seem like pretty cool people, but I'm not so sure about the slang... :cookoo:

When you say "signals the user as lower class and unrefined" does that mean the woman is lower class and unrefined or the person using the term (or maybe both)?

I really didn't take much offence. Inbred jokes just get old after a few years. I even heard them when I lived in KY for undergrad. Yeah, figure that one out.
I went to grad school at WVU for 4 years. WVU and PITT was always my favorite game to go to. BTW, if you went to wvu for any of those games. I apologize for anything our fans said towards you or threatened to burn.
Hey, thats just how we roll. At least we can wear thongs to the pub and not get beat up.

Bogan - A person with very low social ethics and manners. I am guessing it is like people from trailer parks.
Wog - A less derogatory and insulting of WOP. It is very much Australian colloquialism and dose not really cause to much of a stir.
Bint - Slang for a girl. Usually said to insult someone. Not used very much in NSW but in other states it seems to still be thriving.

This girl is just a tool, she saw a Camera and started making up bullshit. But yes i think Australia is very much like the US with the worthiness of media publication, checkbook journalism, and "current affairs".
But... i thought the Murdochs and Pakkas owned much of the US television airwaves anyway. (Australian Mega Rich families that own the majority of the TV industrie.)
I've gotten to the point I don't even watch news anymore. It rarely lets you know "what is really going on" and is filled with bad news. Nothing good ever happens in this world apparently!
You wanna talk media sensation. Ugh, the Caylee Anthony story. It has been a year and a half since the kid went missing in Dec found the body. But, it is still on the news every single day. What's Casey doing to do "this just in Casey took a krap" what is the prosecution going to do about that! I tell you when this thing goes to trial it will be up there with OJ and Staci Peterson case! I'm sorry that a kid died but doesn't this happen rather frequently! I mean they had another little girl go missing after her body was found it was a five second blurb on the news WTF?
