Its an old english abbreviation for a coloured person. It stands for 'western orientated gentleman'. Over the years it's become more recognized as an offensive slang word rather than its original shortened use. It just seemed a little odd and outta place in the forums thats why carling and me had a giggle at it. All pretty innocent and unintentional though.
And that children is the lesson for today :wink:
I second that. At the end of the day, the nickname 'wog' shall be yours from now on - and so shalt the english grin whenever you are beckoned.

It sounds like a puppet character from a 70's kids TV show.

After the Second World War, there was a new immigration policy in Australia that encouraged alot of southern europeans to migrate to Australia. Most of them were Greeks and Italians. They often faced resentment from the established Australians of Anglo-Celtic backgrounds. The term they were often referred to was 'wog' - a derogatory and insulting term. A wog is a slang term for a tummy ache or something of the sort and it eventually became the offensive word when the established Australians referred to the Greeks and Italians as wogs.

Probably means something different all over the world.

Most dictionaries say "wog" either possibly or likely derives from the generic term golliwog after the Golliwogg, a "grotesque" blackface minstrel doll-character from a children's book published in 1895.

As such, in Britain it is (most commonly and seriously) seen as a severe racist slur against black people.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wog

Still, in this case it is an acronym. Hows things, wog?
