You guys are all NSW/VIC, right?

Does anyone there use 'fob' to refer to islanders?

what i can tell from talking to my bogan cousins, who think fob = islander, it seems to be if you live anywhere near the city it's fob = azn. they live near penrith so obviously higher islander population...

Well, I live in a place where everyone is a pseudo-bogan, detached from 'city' trends etc.

One of my friends wore ksubis to free dress day at school once, and all the girls were like "lol wtf dat squares on ur pants dat looks gay ahahah did u drew it". Practically the same thing happened when he wore espadrilles style slip-ons, everyone gave him shit for 'wearing socks', now everyone does...


If you're azn and don't wanna look like a fob, shop at city beach. Instant white-wash.

I could've sworn 'FOBS' generally referred to islanders, and i'd prefer to keep it that way thanks..

FOBS and Asians quite simply do not look like each other

To avoid looking like a fob, please don't wear 2983982 different colors of clothing all at the same time. It could damage permanently to other people's eyes.
