Yeah but in Australia ( i was asking Nev because he's Aussie-Lite) it has a different meaning. On a few TV shows i've seen they say it openly, and then offensively.
It's probably like Ni99a i guess.

Wog in the UK is a disgusting thing to say.

[noam]

one of my mates [mixed race] calls himself a wog to shock people

[Terpit]

I think if i heard someone using that word id assume it was in jest, wouldnt be able to take anyone seriously if they said it

[Sexual_Chocolate]

really need macca to chime in on this.

i have my views on australia & how they act when it comes to other cultures etc....
but id prefer to hear an actual australians views before anything else.

Yeah, I got a friend that's spending a year in Australia right now and he says they use tnuc like us Americans would use douche bag. Here, tnuc is like the ultimate no-no.

[dickman69]

tnuc = bitch

[Sexual_Chocolate]

bitch is just too weak of a term to even think about using down here.

[SCope13]

Here, tnuc is like the ultimate no-no.

if it's a cross-thread questioning of each other's sexuality you want, it's a cross-thread questioning of each other's sexuality you'll get

b/c ive heard that bitch is a huge no no in england

Hm, good too know if I ever decide to go to England. That's weird though, wonder why that is...

[noam]

bitch is a shitty insult in the UK, someone calls you a bitch you'd probably laugh

now if you were to call someone a 'turnip' on the other hand, you better be prepared to throw down

im a turnip

...interesting

[dickman69]

oh well guess whoever told me that is an ass

tnuc is a big deal here tho... friend called me a tnuc once, shit got real, everyone was quiet

and then we started fighting

[Sexual_Chocolate]

[SCope13]

im a turnip

...interesting

m8 ill go skengman on u

[noam]

berk is pretty bad for people who know its origins

'tnuc' is derived from the french 'coin' which came from the latin 'cune' or 'cuneus' which meant 'corner' or 'wedge'

in effect, tnuc means 'a ladies corner' [in one translation]

[Figment]

FUCK i just spent 20 minutes trying to explain it all, typed up a massive TL;DR thing, and then 3 finger rubbed my trackpad into a back-motion on safari. :@

basically, australia is one of the most racist nations on the planet, Wog wouldn't be seen as a "oh no don't say it" like in any other country, because it is used so much, even people who would fit that name, call themselves it, with pride, it's more common than n****r

*don't mean to offend anyone by having to use said words.

i hate my country for this reason, i am not a proud australian.
