"Emphatically typical or undistinguished, but used in a context where this is inherently somewhat disappointing."

I'd like to list a few things that I believe to be 'bang average' and wondered if any of you could beat them:

Porsche 911s
IPA
Tech house music

It's about the misuse of the word 'bang', and an attempt to get a rise out of 911 owners.

Bang fking Pointless, you might say..

Cutting your toenails with clippers

... Pepsi Max, being tired on Fridays, buying a gauge but still checking your tyre pressure at the BP Garage off the main road.

Buying a four pack of Snickers and noting that they're smaller than your youth.

Socks too tight by 5pm, the chav in the newsagent who doesn't speak to you, buying a spicy Peparami and being underwhelmed, sitting in a traffic queue to deposit cardboard to the dump on a Saturday.

Ugg boots
Beards
Pressing the open button on a train before it's lit to show the hoard behind you that you got this.

Stopping the microwave at 1 second, pulling your handbrake so it clicks, turning the Tv off at the plug, saving the best aftershave for who the fk knows when.
Choose rotting away at the end of it all,
Pishing you last in a miserable home
Nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish,
fked-up brats
You have spawned to replace yourself.
Choose your future. Choose life.

Being “bang average” is a good thing, no one bothers you, or expects a lot. Fly below the radar and no one will launch missiles at you.

A Porsche 911 being totally average?

In the real world, bang average is probably somewhere close to a 1.6 tdi golf...

A little higher than 1.6 TDI, but not 911

Average value of new car sold in the UK - £28k
Average value of used car sold in the UK - £13k
Average age of cars on the road in the UK 7.7 years.

Therefore my wife's BMW 520d MY2012 with a value of around £8k is probably close to the real average.

  • i imagine the used car average value is from dealerships, eBay and Autotrader sales, add in gumtree and pub car parks and the number will be lower. If the average new car is £25k, the same car at 7.7 years old is likely to be worth about £6k.
