SOME NEW METALLICA T-SHIRTS IN BOGAN'S FUTURE


Kiwi PhD candidate Dave Snell describes himself:

"The stereotype of a bogan is tight black jeans, a Metallica t-shirt, a mullet or a shaved head and a love of beer and cars," Snell said today on Radio New Zealand.

"I'd very proudly call myself a bogan."

He should be proud, he's been given a NZ$$96,165 grant to study his lifestyle:

The Tertiary Education Commission, which administers grants, senior manager Frannie Aston said "this research will help us to understand our communities and our young people".

Bogan culture I can understand but I'm stumped by the idiots who fund such meaningless projects.
