In Aussie "wog" generally refers to Greeks but I think it also crosses over
to other Mediterranean and even Middle Eastern folks. I've never used it and
you don't really hear it much unless you're talking to rejects, or else it's
used humourlessly. Geoff would be able to better describe it cos I've only
been living here under a year, I might have it a bit wrong.

English




.that chick's rant was just so funny in terms of the social norms she
bulldozes through in that one blitz.then the cute little "you're welcome" at
the end.

So what exactly is a "wog"? She said it like it's a racial slur but

the internetss are giving me different answers.
