So, what Tribe are you?

[dawnrazor]

The person who said that clearly never had two in the bush.

I expect "two in the bush", from a female perspective might not necessarily be a particularly comfortable experience either, ahem......now that is filthy.....I blame JEEBUS.....

[Beemer]

I read the thing in the paper last weekend and identified with the Raglan tribe, not realising there was more to it than that! I ticked Raglan but when I got my profile it said I was a blend of Papatoetoe and Balclutha! Not sure about that... although I think I'm pretty unpretentious, and I suppose I am down to earth although not dumb! 'spose there could be something to it...

The Papatoetoe Tribe Unpretentious

Urban working people who disdain wankers and define themselves by their unwillingness to think of themselves as better than their mates the classic state house and jug of beer Kiwis.


The Balclutha Tribe - Staunch

The Tribal Mind of the Kiwi heartland, the provincial conservatives, who see themselves as a source of stability and commonsense, bearers of on-going connection with the land solid, reliable and down to earth, but also deceptively smart.

"a bird in hand is worth two in the bush"

I saw a young guy with the following on his teeshirt the other day:

Your dominant tribes are Raglan and Cuba St

Your tribal combination shows an alternative view of the world and a strong sense of anti-mainstream individualism - but perhaps you're mellowing with age


The Raglan Tribe Free spirited

The independent spirits who value the ability to live a life according to their own priorities, not the consumerist pressures for material aggrandizement. They tend to be highly sensate and internally focussed hedonists, or spiritual journeyers, fitness fanatics or adrenaline junkies. Many Kiwis join the Raglan tribe for three weeks at Christmas.


The Cuba Street Tribe Avant-Garde

A transitional Tribe for young alternative Kiwis on the cutting edge of cool, where new is the greatest virtue, being labelled mainstream the greatest fear and self-expression the great preoccupation. The Cuba Street tribe is the edge from which many trends and fashions emerge in the 80s it was the vanguard of espresso, in the 90s of body piercing and tattoos

TAKE ME DOWN TO THE WEST AUCKLAND CITY

WHERE THE GRASS IS SMOKED AND THE GIRLS ARE EASY

[Dodgyiti]

I would have been far more comfortable about it if there was a Westie or Henderson tribe

But considering I was born in Papatoetoe and love Raglan I'm not complaining

[scumdog]

Hmm, seems the Balclutha tribe is second only to North Shore. (Other/none don't count)

What does that say for the rest of the country? - they all want to be as good as Scumdog????????????????

[The_Dover]

seems I'm Balclutha.

I think I'll be an outcast though.

I've only got ten fingers and ten toes and I can't play the banjo for shit.

With three fingers on one hand and seven on the other it's no wonder you can't play the banjo for shit...........

And your feet? we won't even go there.

[gijoe1313]

Heh, well for what its worth - I'm a Raglanite with a good dollop of Papatoetoan ... the thing I don't get is, I love my bling gadgets and all - thats crass consumerism to the nth degree Mind you, its all to add to my own hedonistic pursuits... That's 1 minute of my life I ain't getting back ... bummer dude...

Your dominant tribe is Raglan

Unlike the people who take the mainstream path, you got where you are today by creating your own journey. You won't die wondering.

The Papatoetoe Tribe: Unpretentious

[The_Dover]

And your feet? we won't even go there.

nah, neither will the missus

[ManDownUnder]

Well here's me...

Your dominant tribe is North Shore

You're ambitious and hard-working, steadily working your way up in the world. Still hungry for more though.


The North Shore Tribe Achieving

The ambitious, hard-working, heavily-mortgaged inhabitants of the great suburban jungle for whom looking good and keeping up appearances are fundamentally important. They survive in the jungle by constantly moving ahead, up through the ranks of job, car, house, street and suburb.
