#184 – Ducks

20 10 2010

The bogan has never really been known for its love of ornithology. And indeed, it’s unlikely you’ll find too many signing up at the Victorian Birding Association, or patiently waiting in remote South Australia for a glimpse of the rare Northern Shoveler. But here’s the thing; the bogan – almost exclusively the femme-bogue – just fucking loves ducks.

To test this theory, simply attend any location where you will confidently find both bogans and alcohol (alcohol optional). Pull out a camera and aim randomly at any femme-bogue you care to capture and witness the metamorphosis take place. With a rapidity that verges on the instantaneous, the female’s features will twist and distort into an extraordinarily lifelike impersonation of the common waterfowl we all know and love. This process will be repeated ad nauseum, so long as there are cameras still operating in the area. In fact, when cameras are spent, mobile phones will swiftly find their way to an elevated position above small clusters of female bogans, often held aloft by the alpha femme-bogue, as such a raised perspective apparently reflects a more cinema verite approach to capturing this quite common event.

If one were to venture farther afield, to more exotic locations, one would find, behind the inevitable velvet rope, somewhere near the DJ booth, a nocturnal variety of this tremendously non-endangered species; the duck a l’orange. This subspecies, which tends to emerge at night in southern climes in the depths of winter, manages to achieve an extraordinary, glowing hue of an evening with its unnervingly incandescent skin tone and white plumage, which under the black lights native to its regular habitat can glow several shades of iridescent colours.

While regularly observed, there is no conclusive evidence of the cause of this bogan behaviour, although there has been a marked increase in instances of bogan duck-faces since the advent of the book of faces. TBL believe, therefore that this form of exhibitionism started, as all bogan memes do, with early adopters ironically appropriating pop culture. Derek Zoolander became famous for pulling the ‘Magnum’ (often mistaken for the ‘Blue Steel’), which became the photo gag du jour for scenesters eager to milk ironic cool. Soon, this spread to bogan photography, in the mistaken belief that this was an epic max celeb thing to do while being photographed, despite there being little to no photographic evidence of any self-respecting celebrity anywhere twisting its features to resemble those of an semi-amphibious prey animal.

Perhaps squeezing the breast of a duck a l’orange (as per first photo – which still is on the facebook link) inadvertantly results in a reflexive duck face response ? A result of not enough genetic variation between interbreeding bogans ?

I have in my possession a mint-condition copy of the Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen “Style Secrets” book (first edition of course – sorry Fi, you cannot have this one for the library in your palatial manse, this remains firmly in my grip), and the only way I can tell them apart is because Mary Kate loves to duckface at the camera.

Apparently, such a look can be achieved by saying “prune” as one would say “cheese” in front of the camera. Perhaps our delicious bogan morsels are too saying such a thing…

Chub, a couple of things: Thing the first. The poor kids are likely to be afflicted with CDF (Congenital Duck Face) Syndrome, so the sight of a photo of mumsie with Blayze, Teearnuhh and Roxxeigh all mugging at the camera is unlikely to provoke much of a response. Secondly, the poor tykes will have been looking at mum for all of their wretched lives, so they will be pretty shockproof. Example: the tramp-stamp that looked just so hot when she was 22 now resembles a consumptive’s used snot-rag thanks to the ravages of time. Oh the horror

I’m not racist but normally I wouldn’t listen to that shit, even when eating a nice Butter Chicken. I’m currently decorating my awesome new house (5 bedrooms, 2 media rooms and a flat screen in each room!) with some great Buddhist iconography and also planning my wedding in Thailand, got a great deal on Jetstar (my tradie BF is getting huge for our big day, bless his hard working ass) I really enjoy Aussie Hip Hop, MIchael Buble a good tropical debate and I am so hot I am literally on fire.

Hahaha the duckface! Gold! This has been going on for quite some time in the Asian circles, usually done by chics but sometimes, goodness forbidden, guys also! They’re usually in their early 20s but that age limit is on the rise. In the Asian circle, it all apparently started by the Japanese film/TV/magazine/X-rated video stars. With the non-Japanese people’s love for all things Japanese, they copied, complete with their tilted heads and extremely close-up shots. We called that ‘the 3/7th face’ in Hong Kong – only 3 parts of the possible 7 parts of the face are shown when the camera approaches hahaha!

“Fück-a-duck, fück-a-duck”…

I’m most surprised that no one thus far has raised the other duck that bogans like: Plucka Duck, from Hey Hey It’s Saturday.

I had the misfortune of experiencing gallstone pain on Saturday evening in Melbourne and while waiting to be seen to at Alfred Hospital, this abomination was on the waiting room telly.

I don’t know what was worse: the agonising upper abdomen pain, or the reheated turd that has been defecated once again by bogan popular demand.

What a way to cap off an otherwise excellent time in Melbourne. Perhaps I should’ve asked Fi about where the nearest private A&E was in the inner east, as that is both where she calls home and where I was staying on my trip, given I do have top private cover, as much as I find it ethically challenging, I have it out of necessity and I could have well avoided this double bogan dense experience…

Of course! The sideways peace sign. Always a sign of high IQ.

I think I may have a clue as to another cause of Duck Face: the insertion of a tow ball into one’s rectum:

Cool. First thing that comes to mind is the old “Is that a gun in your pocket…” remark.
“Is that a towball up your bum or are you just making duckface?”

That’s gold Chris.

I walked into a towbar once & I made MaxXxtreme duckface.

The creators are, so far, the best chance Australia has to obliterate McCulture in the country. I hope you are successful, and fill the subsequent void with something a little more creative.

Hi all out there in the TBL blogspere

Okay in my travels as bogan watcher, i have seen a sub species of bogan. This type of bogan is somewhat of a mimic of another species of Bogan, the Country Redneck Bogan (Bns ball attending , ute driving with unessential big bull bars) CRB for short. I live in a place where the CRB bogan mostly lives and quite a few of my friends are CRB bogans. In my travels with my CRB friends i noticed that after the tv shows such as McLeods daughters, Farmer wants a Wife, Keeping Up with Jones first aired i started seeing the Wannabe Country Bogan(WCB). This bogan loves to mimic the CRB bogan and will dress itself in RM Williams ( the more longhorn logos the better), drive utes with the over sized bull bars and a lot of aerials, more than that will be ever needed by one man and stickers on the back of the ute ( F&CK of we r full is popular) . It also will wear the largest Akubra possible, not for the sun protection just purely for the reason of looking country . Country music must be playing thru the stereo of the ute and when any one dares change the song it will cry “ oi c^nt put something country on” The WCB bogan does all of the above mentioned things to excess to try hide the fact that it was born in the city with a office worker mother and father. The WCB bogan gets angry and will want to engage in glassing when asked “ oh did that hat come with the john deere tractor you bought”. The conversation mood always take a negative decline when the WCB bogan is asked “ where you from ?” The standard reply is “Oh Burnside but my uncles friend has a hobby farm” . The CRB bogan then grows disinterested when he finds out that you come from the country, live and work on farm and grew up in country.

NB Burnside can be substituted with any inner city suburb round Australia

The myth is that sucking in your cheeks gives you Pronounced Cheekbones, thus making you look skinnier and knocking off the 10 pounds extra the camera adds.

Gay guys have been doing the ‘cheeck suck’ for years in bars. So have girls: watch how often Marcia on ‘the Brady Bunch’ sucks her cheeks in during episodes.

The ducky lip pout seems to be the most recent evolution.
