honger

A person of Hong Kong descent, usually fluent in Cantonese and recognized with a loud, obnoxious, annoying voice, yapping away in Cantonese whenever and wherever. Doesn't know how to speak English properly, and ends every sentence with a la, ah, ar, etc.

Their fobbiness is proven by their English/Cantonese method of typing. "Ngor yiu au si" etc.

Dressed in hideous attire, and equipped with the latest inventions in technology. Ballin' car, brought by rich ass parents, who are usually away for business for long periods of time in Hong Kong or other parts of China. Some honger males harsh resemble honger females and vice versa.

Occasionally, you will bump into a "cool" honger, but the majority of them are the total opposite.

You will find hongers at honger arcades playing DDR, honger malls drinking bubble tea, etc.

Usually racist, hongers tend to stay away from non-Chinese people.

Occasionally, you will bump into a "cool" honger, but the majority of them are the total opposite.

BTW, hongers and CBC's (Canadian born Chinese) are NOT the same.

Also see FOB.
You're an idiot if you are proud to be honger.

honger

A Honger is typically a person from Hong Kong of approximately 50-100 lbs in weight who wears odd color clothing such as bright blue, pink or orange. A Honger will also feel the need to buy a new 500$ cell phone every month and to drive a POS car (usually a civic or other lower model import) with thousands of dollars of useless modifications i.e. a huge spoiler which literally does nothing to add to the performance of the automobile. A Honger will also tend to end sentences with words such as "lah" or "ah" making coherent dialogue difficult if not altogether impossible. Finally, the typical honger will feel that the combination of the attributes listed above makes them cool and hence will act in a rude, cocky and altogether obnoxious manner.

honger

The North American (mainly used in Canada) term for who international school kids in Hong Kong call "locals".
Ugh those locals just immigrate to Canada to become Hongers...What's the point?

Honger

Term for a Hong Kong immigrant who does not conform or assimilate to his or her new surroundings. They are prevalent in such coastal cities such as Vancouver and San Francisco. Although not necessarily a derogatory term, it can be used in a contemptuous fashion because Hongers generally refuse to integrate themselves into their new surroundings. They usually speak predominantly in Cantonese (not Mandarin, as that's the language of mainland China), and they can be easily identified by their fashions: "wacky" and/or dyed hair, black-rimmed glasses, metro fashion, and luxury European cars or Rice Rockets (inexpensive Hondas customized to top performance). Hongers also hang out in large groups of other Hongers.

Hongers do not necessarily have to immigrants from Hong Kong. They can sometimes just be Canadian-born or American-born Chinese who do not fit into any other segment of youth society. However, these are not true Hongers, just misfits and/or losers (if you can't speak Chinese, know nothing of Chinese culture, and were born in North America, you are NOT Chinese or Hong Kongese just because you're socially repulsive to the Whites, Blacks, Latinos, and other Asians in your community).
Aaron: That guy has copper-red hair spiked like Cloud Strife's, and he's yammering away in Chinese or something.

John: That guy's such a Honger.

Aaron: I don't mean to be racist, but damn, they're annoying sometimes.

John: Hey, I'm Chinese, and even I can't stand them. But everybody's entitled to their own pop culture.

honger

it's not so much to argue the points or to add on. but one must admit that this is the definition for the honger in your life that IS loud, annoyingly rich, cocky and inconsiderate. we ALL know that not every person from hk fits into that definition.

it's those who drive their nice cars without knowing how to freakin drive, dress like at 10 year old when they're 30, look down at u because your phone isn't the newest one inthe market, talk in their little groups in the middle of lecture loud enough for u to hear halfway across a 500 people hall....etc....that fits in.

i'm a honger myself, self admitted. i laugh at that definition because it's so true. i find it offending when people call me a honger (WHATWHAT i do NOT have problems colour coordinating my wardrobe)....but c'mon people....lighten up. learn to laugh at yourself and most likely u'll find u don't fall into that category of the annoying honger.
- honger kids who all have super nice super mod-d cars....and when u look in them none of them are stick. what a waste of cars
- mothers who dress in their kids clothes and have hello kitty cellphones. dear god.
- once again people who talk loud enough for the world to hear at the wrong times.
- please....learn the colour triangle....hot pink and hot purple and neon yellow really is quite an odd combo for clothing
