graafenI've never seen a man be so unhinged and yet make so much sense. I suppose Sean Kennedy appeals to my paranoid and sometimes dystopian views on life, and even if you don't agree with his ideals or the "Wog lifestyle" he does have some sound survival advice and tips.
Because Sean doesn't go into the Wog Lifestyle and ethics much until the later episodes of "Patrolling" I'm gonna put a little bit about it here. Although I say "He" in the following, the same applies to females too.
The friend who first introduced me to "Patrolling" and Sean Kennedy thought that "Wog" was an achronym for "Well Organised Guy", however Sean's choice of this term stems from Scientology. For Scientologists a "Wog" is someone who isn't a Scientologist, and as Sean is anti-scientology he used that to describe himself, but this does not mean that all wogs are staunchly anti-scientology.
The irony of it is that the Wog lifestyle does lead one to be well organised, so the achronym does work.
First and foremost a Wog is best described as someone who is ready, both mentally and physically, for any danger to his own life or the lives of those around him. He also tries to improve the lives of those around him as best he can (example: the episode where Sean finds the GeoCache). He embraces the origins of man and the need to return to nature as often as possible.
He understands that advertising is desgined to make him buy things he doesn't need; when did you last see an advert for something you would really need in a crisis, like a Multi-tool or a first-aid kit?
His life is streamlined to make things run as smoothly as possible. He manages his time and his body as best as he possibly can.
Overall a wog is not a violent or confrontational man, he will blend in with society and do his best to better lives of others in the little ways that he can (example: donating all his old clothes to charity, recycling, never wasting anything if he can help it). He respects authority (especially the police) yet still makes himself heard.
If you missed my previous post, and survival interests you, then go download/watch "Patrolling with Sean Kennedy". If after that anyone is interested in all of season 1 and half of season 2 of "Patrolling", then I can burn the shows to DVD for you and send them on.
