Yeah, in a thread where the posters were joking about the relative taste of Australian v Americans. You've got a serious persecution complex.

Aliantha 03-19-2008 05:43 PM

yeah, and not surprising either.

I apologise if you did mean your comment in the best of intentions. The other three know what I'm talking about though. They can deal with it however they like.

You can get "milk teas" (with tapioca pearls and a hugeass straw) in Japanese bubble tea shops, but they are specialties, and not really considered tea.

If I am having cold green tea....no milk.

As we speak I am enjoying a hot tea, with sugarine and Skinny Milk. :D

When I was over in the States everyone thought I was mad for having hot tea with milk in the morning.

I dislike the attitude that you take with regard to what you think my attitude is towards America.

I think you and your wife and your mate monster are like a pack of mongrel dogs with lookout snapping at your heals when you feel like ganging up on people and your behaviour is disgusting. If you think I'm anti american then whatever. I don't really give a fuck anymore. You can all kiss my far superior Australian arse for all I care.

How's that for straight?


WTF planet are you on? did you actually read anything I posted or just make assumptions? Did I make one untoward comment about you or your question? Where?

half and half is a disgusting American-only gloopy white conconction. You're safer going for black in a coffee bar here, although you have to call it African American.

Here: My only two comments in this thread. Mocking the merkins and their nasty white stuff, perhaps. But not you. My answer may not have been the most helpful, but in what way does it count as ganging up on you? hmm?

Aliantha 03-19-2008 06:07 PM

Think about the last time you saw me in the chat room monster. Remember some of the nasty things that the three of you had to say.

And yeah, it's only words, so why do I care? Maybe because I'm sick of being told what I think about America. I'm sick of not being able to talk about Australia in a positive light without being accused of hating America. Just because I make a comment one way or another doesn't mean I hate America or Americans. It simply means that I think that particular way about that particular aspect.

The biggest problem is that the internet is full of Americans, so it doesn't matter where you go, you end up with the same accusations if you choose to enter into discussions about world events.

monster 03-19-2008 07:00 PM

erm... I'm not American....

..and you are completely off your trolley..... or is it the wagon you fell off and that's the problem?

It isn't all about you, honey. This permanent victim thing is becoming a bit of a self-fulfilling prophecy, isn't it? And a little tiresome to boot. I hope you feel better soon. :)

Aliantha 03-19-2008 07:06 PM

At no point have I suggested you're American. That didn't stop you from jumping on the bandwagon though did it?

Oh and btw, keep your false concern to yourself. You only make yourself look pathetic with your smart remarks. Ask around.

monster 03-19-2008 07:26 PM

what bandwagon?

Griff 03-19-2008 07:29 PM

Let's get back on topic.

And yours is what? Permanently on the hunt?

You arent happy unless you have someone to follow around, respond to their posts in a passive aggressive manner.

The shit slinging is very tiresome.

Pot.Kettle.Black regarding the wagon me thinks.

I drink my tea de-caff these days, but the mornings (hot or cold) wouldn't be the same without a proper cuppa. Tetley De-Caff, mashed teabag, milk in last, strong enough to trot a mouse across. Aaaaaaaah!

BTW my new boss - from Adelaide - believes you should put the milk in first for both tea & coffee. I therefore assume this is an Australian tradition and claim all Aussies to be heathens too. I am staying at home and spending all my new wages on myself - travelling is too fraught with danger.
