Ive been in the local punk scene for like 7 years, knowing tons of street kids... it seems they all kinda preach about the "living free" as an excuse for why they're doing it, yet call others doing the same shit oogles. What i'm basically asking is what is a "oogle". If i wanted to travel the country via hitch hiking just for the fun of it, the freedom aspect, and to get away for a while would that be considered "oogle".

oogle is a stupid term which doesnt even have a meaning anymore. but being an oogle is generally not a good thing i think. its kinda like being a noob. but lotsa wannabe shit kids call them self oogles i dont know. dont worry about it.
but try the search function there are lots of threads about it. also remember to use the search function before making a thread in order to not make a duplicate. welcome. pic related.

oogle is short for "stupid fucking word with no real meaning any more that shouldn't even be spoken any longer" Its apparently an insult, but at the same time its a term of endearment. Its like the N word for skids.

It should almost be banned from conversation like the CCG..gotta move on to better things

I like this thought oh Wize man. From what I've been reading past and present - it seems like it is an issue/non-issue - something that keeps coming up. Begone.

To me, the word oogle is about as funny as cutting farts (which can be pretty humorous for an 8 year old). It helps that I've only known what the word has meant for a couple years now and it hasn't gotten entirely old for me yet. When I take pictures of crusties, I don't go, "say cheese!", I say, "say oogle!"

As dumb as the word is, it can still elicit smiles at the appropriate moment.

If you think you might be an oogle, you're an oogle.

When I first started traveling I saw a lot of absolutely retarded fights start because of this word.
Some of the "old schoolers" still love getting their panties in a bunch over it.

Now it's hilarious, widely used out of context and mostly by people outside of the community.

In Oakland I saw kids wearing patches that said "Ooglecore".
I don't know what that means but I'm sure they weren't losing sleep over it.

At the end of the day, it's just a word that sounds silly no matter who is saying it.

If you're still knocking people out and getting butthurt over it, it might be time to move on. Everyone else has.
