I should’ve listened to the old man he warned me about getting you wet.
 
It is. Problem is I am learning it. I will slip more often then others. Worse, sometimes I won't realize the problem is a cultural clash until is too late.

Even though travellers know the rule, it is not easy to apply it concretelly. It is not my first dance with this kind of issue. Even if you try to emulate the locals, you will get it wrong. Still, you try to get along.

I know shit is going to happen, but I roll the dice anyway. As travellwers know, in the end, the outcome tend to be positive. So, sad as those may be, one takes the bad moments as lessons and move on.

Good attitude Gremio - "A man would do [or say] nothing if he waited until he could do it so well that no-one could find fault". Never be afraid to express your thoughts, opinions or questions, it is - after all - how we grow and expand our understanding.

You’re doing fine. The irony that the one poster whose really got his knickers in a knot, is by not letting go a conflict which has nothing to do with Australia.

**** me, anyone can find some point where some of their ancestors would have been oppressed by some other group, if you want to go looking hard or far enough back. Personally those Romans ... I mean what have they ever done for us?

Stick with the majority (still although shrinking) of Australians who still can get a laugh out of most things, instead of actively searching for offence in it and most here will continue to be happy with your contributions, with your unique long distance perspective.

Don't worry, (too) many Aussies make this same slip :D
Hey GremioPower I feel I need to make it clear 'then' is not to be replaced 16 times with upper case and bolded 'than'.

We should be allowed 50 posts each between the end of the GF and the start of R! in the H&A. Use them how we will.
I'd wait until Chigiwiggy or Prison Bars or whatever he goes by has hit his 50 post limit and then post something positive about Oliver Cromwell
 
I feel like the off season makes bigfooty infinitely worse
I sometimes think the BigFooty servers must be located in the northern hemisphere. Late Spring and then Summer here in Australia rolls around post-season, yet the snowflakes start falling rapidly. It’s rhe season we inevitably get at least one poster stamp their feet, that they’ve had enough of the evils of GiantPigskin and leave in a snit, like a teenager. o_O

Apparently Adelaide United are bitching about the timing of the AFLX games at Hindmarsh. Griffen is talking about complaining to the SA Government who own the stadium.
I thought Adelaide Entertainment Centre took over running the stadium from the Office of Sport & Recreation

With PB, it was another matter entirelly. We were having like three paralel conversations, and, due disagreement, temperature raised beyond my expectation.

There is nothing wrong with disagreements, but the talks started going nowhere. So, we interrupted them. Nothing to lose sleep about. It can happen.
