Dorko was originally invented in 1991, as a bad-ass gutsy dog who could talk to neighbourhood children. This comic was shortlived. In 1999, this comic idea was unearthed and re-hashed, and Dorko was no longer a dog, but a red-headed punk boy, who bore a striking resemblance to Johnny Rotten in his Sex Pistol heyday.
Dorko is the punked out hero of the comic series "Dorko on the Patio"--a comic which personified the angst of Canadian teens in the 1990s. A Punk classic giving Can Lit the electroshock therapy it sorely needed!
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
