I just wanted to start a discussion on peoples real opinion of Christmas. Without all this 'ooh Merry Christmas' bollocks. Personally, I enjoy Christmas. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my real opinion is its awesome i love the smell of pine trees i love snow i love all the food i love that my family finally gets along (though the both sides hate eachother) i love giving / receiving gifts i love eating christmas dinner and reminiscing about things we did / enjoyed together i love my dads choice in beer purchases i love my moms pound cake i love how my cats drink water out of the tree stand this is my first christmas not going home, though, so it will be weird...have to grow up sometime i suppose ! |

ok seriously now. 1. Ten million turkeys killed heaps of turkeys and other animals are killed all year round. 2. Pissed-up idiots driving and killing never been part of my xmas 3. Huge rise in drink related deaths or injuries pfft, again, doesnt relate to me 4. Chavs getting pregnant, hence September being the month of most births every year my birthdays in may 5. Office partys ruining careers still at school! hey! 7. Christmas cards whats wrong with christmas cards? 8. You fat bastard : ( 9. Household accident deaths peak on 25th ive never had any household accident deaths on 25th.. 10. Most suicides happen around the Christmas and New Year period never committed suicide or know anyone who has. but.. 6. Genuinely wasting a lot of money you could soooo easily just make that the list and leave it at that. you spend all this money and then just get random presents back (how many of them u actually want) again tho, i like christmas |

yeah apperantly theres one in melbourne soon. dunno how true this is? stupid australians |

honestly doesn't feel like christmas. especially seeing, for me, work gets even more hectic than normal this month. saw people putting up christmas trees the other day which really seemed strange until i remembered what the date is, and that it's only like a week away from christmas. hell, where the shit has this year gone. too bloody quickly. |

from what i can work out (ignoring the media, listening to those i know up in sydney), it started off as a simple, non-violent, non-racist protest against particular lebanese gangs who are causing problems. extremists got involved, and it's turned to shit; as somebody else put it, it's "idiots vs idiots". i'm pretty disgusted by the whole thing, really. |
||||||||

|
|
Not so perfect after all, are you? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if you're referring to me - bullshit, i'm perfect in every way, baby! if you mean australia - yeah, we're a reasonably peaceful country but there's certainly a lot of fuckwits out there, no different than any other country. the media is blowing it completely out of proportion though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i could imagine those people attacked as being any of my own anglican or arabic friends. its just totally unacceptable. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
In England there is a perception that Australains think they are perfect, and that thier nation is perfect. The media here are evil fucks, and there is a sense of "They fucked up! Ha ha!" going around the country. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah its heaps dumb! : ( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Merry Christmas. And a very happy new year. |

i guess australia strives to uphold the image of a multicultural success story. around my town it does appear to be the case. we are though a bit more laidback than the eastern states :) but i could expect the british papers to latch on these incidents as they already boldly announce the failiure of multiculturalism at home. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
indeed; same here, and even in sydney. it's a very small section of society that are intolerant of it; and it appears they've taken liberty of the situation and are causing havok. racism in this situation is purely a scapegoat; the problems appear to be deeper rooted, and (at this point) appears confined to one part of sydney. that said, the opinions i form on this stuff are loosely based at most; almost all information is biased, either from those witnessing the events or the media, neither who grok the full picture, who then amplify and distort perception of the rationale through peers. on the positive side, maybe this will mean individuals who have been causing problems for a while now will be jailed for a very, very long time. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
australia is still very multicultural, just the dickheads and such are like. devolving or something. the first riot/right thing (or i think it was the first) was just heaps of 'true australians' running around beating up any lebanese (was it only lebanese?) people they could find. fucken poor effort. just read this over FOUR churches in Sydney's southwest have been attacked in 24 hours as the city's riots spread from race to religion. oh yeah, and sorry to all those who wanted to talk about how shit christmas is : ) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
argh. riot/right... fight* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
actually, there's multicultural tolerance/acceptance issues everywhere, i think, but the real problems and those who don't believe in the concept are such a minor issue that it hardly matters - at least, at this point in time. the current situation may change that, but i hope not/don't think it will. |

killing turkeys is awesome, even though we don't eat them at christmas. i'd kill turkeys any day. christmas is good stuff. presents and good food and lulling yourself to sleep with some bad tv. |

the police need to fucking smackdown hard on these morons. idiots shit me even more when they can get away with this crap. i've heard others say there's efficiency issues with the police force; this seems to definitely indicate that (but, again, these are armchair opinions - i'm probably wrong). also, if it's of any interest (and to my best knowledge, this is legal), a live sydney police scanner stream: |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
^ uh, efficiency issues with the police force specifically in sydney, i mean. supposedly this was a big part of the original, intended non-violent rally (gangs causing problems, police doing merry sweet f-all about it). |

Passing out upstairs in an alcoholic stupor at 2.30pm. Coming down at 7.00pm for cold turkey sandwiches and a couple of leftover pigs in blankets. Excellent. |
