Well this thread is disgraceful.... All this north vs south BS. (South FTW)

Yes we have commodore bogans.... and hot women (I hear this from Victorians all the time)

Can't we unite against the Vic's instead!

We'd just end up fighting amongst ourselves anyway. At least this way, we've cut straight to the chase.

wow!! I never for a moment thought that my little comments about Adelaide would snowball into this!! GOLD!!! I love how little the other state guys have to say about the city... Just leave it to the locals!!

Good that everyone can enjoy a laugh... (almost...)

Next trip, I'm doing more exploring of this city... Its suddenly become a kind of musem of different "culture" to me... (or it sounds like the bastard child of Penriff and Cabbra)

Thats why they are building a new prison at murray bridge, it was costing a fortune transporting the crims all the way down the freeway to adelaide.

They have already built a maximum security holding facility for the old aged, unemployable and drug addicted at Munno Para. They have hidden it behind a big Bunnings sign.

not sure what it is and if its unique to certain areas of adelaide, but even on the hottest days you will see dero's walking around in full winter get up. usually black and has that unwashed look about it. most times the trackie dacks and long baggy jumper are accompanied by a beanie as well.

being a southerner (woodcroft) occasionally i just have to go to colonades (usually a last resort) and the types of people you see hanging around reminds me why i avoid the place like the plague. there'd be enough footage for many 'streettalk' segments on the footy show.

you cant shoplift three 2 litre bottles of coke under a blue singlet, hence the baggy clothing is formal shopping ware.

Hey hey to be fair Colins-got-aids has picked up its game a bit since the extension. Just as long as you park on the south side and avoid being there every second Thursday on the north side, then it is quite a nice place.

It's funny that the 50 cent, Dada, and Eminem clothing holds the same value for north and south.

And please wether you be from north or south, if you can get photos of other examples of such fine pieces of automotive modification, like the VN previous in this thread. Or even real life photos of hillbillies on front yards then share them with us.

Lets fine Adelaides seediest co-habitants!!

Saw the classic example of Adelaide's finest in the car park down at AAMI Stadium after the footy on Saturday.
They had to be Southerners though. They took too long to throw a punch to be Northerners.
