"A Raglan" is derogatory colloquial word used to describe a teenage, or young adult from the New Zealand town of Raglan.
Unsurprisingly, Raglan is has the highest count of Hilux's per head of Capita.
Raglans are easily identified when travelling in their Hilux, which is usually slow, dented and white and should have been scrapped in 1994 when it ran out of oil, but for some reason you can't kill a Hilux. That makes a Hilux more attractive to a Raglan than their cousins, which is a unique identifier when comparing to "Red-necks" or "Bogans" who are also usually slow and white and dented. Another key identifier is the tip of a surf board protruding from the corner of the tray - which also doubles as a weapon against innocent pedestrians in a beach carpark.

In the wild a Raglan can be identified by many signs including missing teeth, a mullet hair cut, a tramp stamp tattoo and one pink "drivers" arm. They smile a lot and have a mating call that sounds similar to the words "sweet-as", though experts are still undecided on the spelling due to the strong accent.

Warning: If you see a Raglan, please do not approach. Thy are known to be dangerous and throw uppercuts and head butts without warning, all while displaying their signature smile and sounding their mating call, which is very misleading and may allow them to get close to a victim.
"Say away from that Hilux over there, it's bound to have a couple of Raglan's nearby".
What is that smokey POS holding up traffic ahead? Oh it's just a Raglan, Don't make eye contact kids"
"You are such a Raglan!" "sweet-as" "Crack"

patricia raglin 

Kapaun Mt Carmel in Wichita, Kansas was built around this ancient deity. Ms. Raglin exists out of time, and God turns to her for guidance and counsel. She holds the keys to Heaven and Hell, and Hell consists primarily of cheaters and gum-chewers. One cannot quantify the value of her class or the amount of extra credit given in a year's time. During the enlightening and philosophically enriching time that is AP English IV, a wooden rocking horse can be likened to masturbation. If you are chosen as one of her inner sanctum (Colloquially referred to as National Honor Society), one may reach a new level of enlightened consciousness. The psychologically "enriching" activity, also known as essay writing, increases the intellectual capacity of the human brain tenfold; furthermore, sentence patterns exponentially magnify this transformation of the mind (Sentence Pattern 1a). Finally, we come to perhaps the highest regarded activity of all: Book Chat. Book Chat is the discussion of extremely reputable novels (i.e. young adult novels) with the most astute of scholars at Kapaun Mt Carmel. To summarize, Raglin is perhaps the greatest professor to ever grace our insignificant planet, and her classes expand the power of the brain to the nth power.

In all honesty though, English class with Patricia Raglin consists primarily of total bullshit and lots of Sparknotes reading. The only thing you might learn is how fake it till you make it.
Patricia Raglin is the antithesis of a good English teacher, but her class is fucking hilarious.
