Guess nobody got my pitsburg joke.

Aris, by calling us hijack ninjas, you know you're just encouraging us, right? 'cause everyone knows ninjas rock.
EDIT: Yes, and it's entirely possible to hijack your own thread. Just ask Erion about poinging crystals with tuning forks.

Nobody seems to notice that the news media is pretty much the same everywhere in the world. (I've watched plenty of T.V in atleast 5 countries on 3 different continents) Nor do people seem to care about taking history into account for modern actions. About the only thing Bowling for Colombine shows is how prejudice our* views towards Rural white people are.

Okay ever here about what happened in Russia, and Germany and etc, the media can be changed as easily as history changes

Sure, goverment contol can tell you that a huge nuclear explosion was just a small train accident, but we are not talking about government contorled media here.

Don't knock aussies, but, instead of powerboats, I do have a trained Salt Water Crocadile (Black Caiman, of course), stored in the shed incase the rains come in too much
But, truly, Aussies aint that bad... I can't remember what beer the Pome's (Prisoner of Mother England, pronounced pom-e) drink that they think is fantastic Aussie beer, but it tastes like fermented cat pee. Try Toohey's Extra Dry, or some such. Amazingly, I prefer beer to most other drinks.
EDIT: Black Caiman's are from the Amazon... I think

I am an Aussie, dear. It's good to have a sense of humour about your cultural stereotype.
Shoshana2005-01-11 12:52:51
I like Vegemite . Someone has to stick up for it, it's one of our great cultural invention-type-thingies!

It's like the "Made from beer." ad. Because it is!

I think I just hate some americans with a square mind full of emptyness that they fill with thoughs got from somewhere else, like racism, militarism and general idiocy.
But to show I don't discriminate, I hate anybody with that mentality, even if it's not american

fast reply is acting wierd.. sorry

If Vegemite is that wierd marmalade stuff, I've seen people from Israel, South Africa and England rage about it.. didn't know it was Australian.
What exaclty is militrism? Never heard that term before.
my guesses are:
1) Social order through military power
2) Economic structure based on buying, selling and making weapons
3) Something to do with having ranks and hiearchy of power where you don't question superiors
4) Something else that probabbly isn't militrism.
Ugg. I just looked up Militrism on Wikipeida, and yeah Ugg.
I'd have to say I hate those idiots who think Militrism is worthy of a special name. I mean, Opium Wars anyone?

It's really about as far from marmalade as you can get. There's no fruit in it to my knowledge. It was originally the scrapings of yeast and grain waste that accumulated in the bottom of beer vats. One day this guy said, "Hey! I wonder what that tastes like?" (I think this guy was either drunk, or doing a dare). So apparently it tasted good (even though it's dark, and thick, and bitter as heck), and the guy marketed it as... Vegemite! The stuff that the people from overseas have is Marmite (or some other variation on that name), and is not nearly as good apparently.
In short, it's yet another cultural icon of Australia that relates to beer.
Silvanus2005-01-12 04:38:36
Militrism was the West's reason for one of the reasons why they started World War I.
Dan2005-01-12 23:42:46
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Are you JOKING Silvanus?
Militrism had NOTHING to do with the staring of WWI. It all started when that Arch Duke of Canterbury I think it was, was assassinated. Then, when the prisoners were caught, who were foreigners, the country that had them captive refused to return them to their homeland. This all lead to a big fight over a simple thing. Then each side gave its allies a call, and a whole bunch of other stuff happened... blah bla blah. There you go, WWI.

So marmite is similar to vegemite? Well, marmite stinks like the heckington fens, so I'm glad I ignored Shelly's advice to try out the latter, then.
