A somewhat derogatory word used to describe an Australian Aboriginal. The word ALLEGEDLY comes from the sound that they make as they bounce off your vehicle. At one time, many years ago, there were some roads in Queensland where the Abbos used to frequently steal / hijack cars driven by whites. As a result of their lack of trustworthyness, a trait shared with black people everywhere, it became legal to just run them off the road. Any time an Abbo got in the way of your vehicle, you just rammed them out of the way. The sound they make as they bounce off, is similar to a gong......Boooong! As a result, the thieving curly haired vermin became known as Boongs.
'Look out mate, that thieving Boong is going to try to steal your ute'.....
'Don't worry mate, I'll make the smelly Boong fly'.....
#BOOOONG!
#Dirty smelly thieving Boong flies through the air, his days of hijacking are over.

Boong is a racist and derogatory word used to describe Aboriginal Australian people.
Contrary to what is already written, 'Boong' is derived from the word 'Boonga-boonga' which is actually an Eastern Australian Aboriginal word (Eora and Cadigal People for example) that means arse or bum and was originally used by the Aboriginal people as an insult to the colonisers.
Many Aborignal languages do not have swear words and, in Aboriginal Culture, the arse is the most disgusting part of the body. The Aborignal People would taunt the europeans and call them Boonga's (whilst flashing their black arses at them 'Braveheart ' movie style). Once the europeans realised what they were being called they turned it around and began using the word to describe Aboriginal People.
This is accurate information which was sourced from my personal lecture notes as well as papers studied at the Bankstown campus of the University of Western Sydney. Diploma in Indigenous Community Studies, Issues in Aboirignal Education, Native Title in Australia.

"Hahaha look at these silly white boys, their muskets can't shoot as far as we can throw our spears, they can't get us!" (Then while baring their arses) "Boonga boonga boonga hahaha!"
"These Gubba's are spreading disease all over the country, nothing but boonga-boonga's!"

A word commonly used by under-educated, white Australian racists to belittle and degrade Aboriginal Australians. Used on a casual basis, the word "Boong" originated in the famed bigot state of Queensland and has spread throughout the continent via the Australian construction industry, truckie culture and inter-generational racism.
1. "I f*cking hate these boongs, wish we could bring back the White Australia Policy, or poison thier water and kick the heads off thier babies..." - Casual Australian Racist.
2. "Back in my day, we'd all get together and go boong bashin, ah yep those were the days" - Elderly Australian Racist.
3. "Why the f*ck should I say 'sorry' for happened 200 years ago, those smelly boongs are all lazy alcoholics anyway". - Under-educated Australian racist.

Term of endearment referring to an adorable aborignal Aussie transplant. Usually characterized by his charming personality, friendly sense of humor, and striking good looks. Be careful, though... like most things from Australia, this one can be deadly! He is a master manipulator, and will use his wit & charm to lure you in. Next thing you know, your head is on a stick! May also be used in the verb form to refer to the ability to do the above.
Ha! Dude, did u see that? He just totally "boonged" that chick.
or
That kid is legit "boong" right there.
