7 YEARS

[KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607]

Surely that was a joke?

Also, the list for Queenslanders:

• Must believe that daylight savings are a communist plot designed to bring down the great state of Queensland.
  
• Must believe that daylight savings will cause cows to "Not know when to wake up!".
  
• Must drink XXXX Beer instead of water.
  
• Must help import Pacific Islander rugby players to play for the state of Queensland in rugby.
  
• Must believe that Matthew Hayden deserves a Knighthood.
  
• Must regard Aussie Rules as a game inspired by the Devil, designed to bring down the great state of Queensland.
  

Cap, I love you, you make me laugh so fucking much

[Spike 12,049]

Yeah.

Spike is the only non-foreigner here. KOF isn't white and I'm, of course, half Sri Lankan-Indian.

To qualify as an Aussie you must satisfy the following:

• Look white
  
• Have an English first and surname
  
• Preferably be Protestant
  
• Must enjoy beer
  
• Must like either Aussie Rules or Rugby
  
• Must have an Australian accent.
  
• Must under no circumstance support any English national sporting team.
  
• Must have a casually racist attitude towards foreigners
  
• Must dislike football and consistently refer to it as a game for "Poofters, wogs and sheila's".
  
• Must dislike East Asian automobile drivers
  

Ever since Germany '06 the attitude towards Football has changed a lot.

If I moved to Australia, would I be considered a foreigner?

Yes and no. Among Anglo-Saxon Aussies like myself you would be accepted much more quickly and receive a much friendlier reception than the Indians or Lebonese.

much friendlier reception than the Indians or Lebonese.

So if I moved to Australia Cap wouldn't like me? Fuck you Cap!

[KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607]

Yes and no. Among Anglo-Saxon Aussies like myself you would be accepted much more quickly and receive a much friendlier reception than the Indians or Lebonese.

Really? I think it's the opposite (in my experience).

1. Not a communist plot...we believe it some sort of indoctrination into becoming a New Zealander

2. Mate, daylight savings makes no sense to me. We get like 14 hours of dalight in Queensland, it pointless and annoying having more.

3. Urban myth.

4. Where else are they going to play?

5. Don't be an idiot he already is.

6. It almost happened once. Almost. For three years (2001-2003) Satan or Jason Akermanis as we call him almost brought down our state.

I think you have misunderstood me. I was saying he will have an easier welcome being an Englishman than he would being from India or Lebanon. I'm not saying that the Indians and Lebonese aren't nice to foreigners.

[capriccioso 2,545]

So if I moved to Australia Cap wouldn't like me? Fuck you Cap!

I see no mention of Sri Lanka there. Why you jump to conclusions?

Manpe

[Spike 12,049]

so you pronounce it like man pee? my name must be fun for you guys then. i'm going fine though. how art thou?

How should be pronounced? I'm doing good, exhausted but good.

[capriccioso 2,545]

so you pronounce it like man pee? my name must be fun for you guys then. i'm going fine though. how art thou?

I've always pronounced it as man-pay. Is that right?

[KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607]

I see no mention of Sri Lanka there. Why you jump to conclusions?

WHS= Racist!

[Spike 12,049]

Manpe

I didn't want to mention Sri Lanka because I don't really know how they view Australia. I know the Indian and Lebonese populaitons don't really like 'white Australia'.
