    Huh? Do you mean ancestors? Well I'll have you know, my ancestors on the Indian side have farmed goats for centuries! The Sri Lankan side were fishermen/middle class professionals (teachers, clerks, receptionists etc.)

    My oh my, look at that. Scholes, Beckham, Campbell, Ferdinand, Ashley Cole, Gary Neville, Michael Owen, Frank Lampard. All world class players. Undone by Tony Popovic, 'Silent' Stan Lazaridis, Scott 'Chippers the Bus Driver' Chipperfield and John 'Wog' Aloisi.

    Probably about 12 times now, though I've only left the airport three times. Just the walk from the plane to the airport terminal, even inside that airconditioned gate, is so humid!

    Spike lives in the desert, its a lot hotter there. In the cities it's normally 35 degrees, on very hot days it can get to 45 but that happens at the most once a year. Aussie girls love Europeans. You'll do fine

    Thats the Aussie spirit. "Thats racist? No, you're racist!"

    And we had these ads from KFC where a white guy calmed down a large group of celebrating, boisterous black cricket fans with a bucket of KFC. There was also a blackface stunt live on public TV which drew little domestic criticism.

    We used to call Aboriginals 'boongs'. Hospitals used to have separate 'Boong Wards', and their blankets usually had 'For Abo Use' written over them.

    It covers Slavs and Balkans peoples as well.

    They are considered such in Australia and you can't just slap on a shirt and suddenly become Mr. Queensland without following some traditions!

    Call them wogs and we'll make an Aussie out of you. .

    Its not proper 'you are inferior' racism, its just having a very lax attitude to racial abuse. Wog for example is something lots of Mediterranean/Turkish people take offence to but we recently had a movie realised worldwide called 'Wog Boys'.

    Stop calling us Wales . We're Newer and Souther than Wales! I would say they are more like Leeds or Valencia, in that only a few years ago they were huge but now have slipped away. Fallen giants.

    It's rugby. In Australia there's an annual competition between Queensland (a state of Australia) and New South Wales (another state). This competition is called "State of Origin", and it's a very fierce rivalry, comparable to Man United vs. Liverpool or even Barcelona vs. Real Madrid (minus all the political stuff, of course). Queensland have now won 7 titles in a row, hence the '7 years'. http://en.wikipedia....f_Origin_series Or for anyone wanting to save time, here's the main point from that article: State of Origin is the annual best-of-three series of rugby league football matches between the Maroons and the Blues, who represent theAustralian states of Queensland and New South Wales respectively.[1] Described as "sport's greatest rivalry,"[2][3] the State of Origin series is one of Australia's and the region's premier sporting events, attracting a huge television audience and usually selling out the stadiums in which the games are played.[4] Despite the existence of international tournaments and State of Origin being a domestic competition, it is frequently cited as being the highest-level of rugby league played anywhere in the world. Since the inception of the series, total victories for each side were formerly extraordinarily even; however, since 2006, Queensland has dominated the competition, winning all seven of the following series.

    Hmm... eat two meals a day. I balance my body perfectly. I'm hideously underweight but my body runs like a well oiled machine, I eat exactly what I need to eat and burn that off. I haven't put on so much as a kilogram in 2 years, and thats some achievement as I've put on about 20 centimetres in height since 2010.

    I don't know about the Lebanese but the Indians aged 30 and above here are have a ghetto mentality. It's not dislike or distrust, it's just that they don't really want to socialise with white people, they would rather socialise with other Indians. They'll still be happy to befriend them at work or whatever. Sri Lankans share a similar mindset but I can tell you they are eternally grateful to the Australian Government from letting them flee Sri Lanka. Obviously now with the war over that attitude isn't relevant, but still both sets share a positive view of white Australians. My parents of course are outerliers. They hate Muslims, whites, and Protestants- in that order.

    I've always pronounced it as man-pay. Is that right?
  25. capriccioso
    I see no mention of Sri Lanka there. Why you jump to conclusions? Manpe
