For Americans, a shrimp on the barbie is the existential Australian reality from a popular tourism tv commercial of my youth urging people to spend giant money to visit what is essentially Utah without Mormons. More the point, why is a chicken parm sandwich so dire over there when its the semi-national dish? Excuse me, a parmie. I wanted to organize a kind of Italian-American culinary peace corps to explain this dead-simple dish to you. The fact is that I agree with you about 92%. If only I agreed in the propah form.

The ad was bastardised to suit American parlance. Australians cringe when they see it. I cringe when I see a chicken parm, only the poor eat it which explains why it's the national dish I suppose. It used to be a steak and 3 veg but they can't afford steak anymore. Or 3 veg. Maccas is the national diet. Australia is Utah with Mormons unfortunately, not that I have seen any for a long time, Maybe they're extinct there now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saying that Australia is Utah (dramatic dessert scenery, rugged individualism) WITHOUT Mormons. Or on average, decent looking women. I can see why you're all in Thailand.

The only time I have heard of any racism (and its also happened to me three times) , is when Non Whites are abusive to mixed raced couples . Some Black and Asian guys hate seeing "their woman" with White guys (And there are also probably some White guys who hate seeing "their woman" with non white guys) . Three times I have has some unpleasant remarks by non Whites , because I was with an Asian Woman , some of my friends have also had similar remarks when they are with their non White girlfriend . (And I am quite sure it also happens to non White guys with White girlfriends) I worked in inner city schools in the UK and my experience of working with colleagues and students is very different.

DBath Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Propaganda and poppycock…this dude probably got an ‘A’ in both Critical Race Theory and Gender Ideology to cimpliment his closet full of green participation ribbons. It seems to me he’s ‘angry’ for all the wrong reasons and his message would have been much more effective, had he come out in rainbow hair and blackface. I can disagree with whomever I please, that doesn’t make me an ‘angry white man’ and it doesn’t have to mean I hate anyone, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBath Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 20 hours ago, OneMoreFarang said: Some terms are just used by people because they are used by many other people. I.e. if I talk to Thai people about "my farang friend" they will have an idea about (part of that) person. If I would say he is a westerner or an American or a Dutch guy or a white guy that would be more complicated. That's why I call a farang a farang. And then there is obviously the question how often people use a term. I.e. recently I wanted to talk to a black American guy about racism. I see him from time to time and we are friendly but he is not "my friend". I was not sure if I could/should use the term "black guy" because other words were used for many years until someone decided that now that word is racist and can't be used anymore. All that PC <deleted> makes thinks unnecessary complicated. OneMoreFarang Oh come on, OMF…are you sure you’re not just trying to justify that horribly racist screen name of yours? ???????????? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
