THEY have been around for decades, wearing a mullet, black jeans and listening to heavy metal, and now the Oxford English Dictionary (OED) officially recognises bogans.
The word bogan has been included in the dictionary's list of new word entries for June, sandwiched between bling and bustler.
The OED, which calls itself the definitive record of the English language, defines a bogan as an Australian and New Zealand colloquial "depreciative term for unfashionable, uncouth, or unsophisticated person, esp. of low social status".
The origin of the word is unclear, but it may have originated in Australia. (ya think?)
In honour of this momentous occasion, I would like to nominate someone who I believe could easily be crowned The Hugest Bogan in Australia.
My nominee is one David Allen Baker Baldwin, currently residing in jail in Queensland. What follows is a transcript of one of his hearings for attempted murder. Read right to the bottom.

Ah heck, I worked with a man named Bogan years ago.
