True, True. In my game I deal with a hell of a lot of Europeans. as you say most of these guys steped off a boat in the 50s and 60s with eveything they owned in one suitcase and usually a young family in tow, unable to speak the language and faced with a country full of TRUE BLUE Aussie whos only culture came in a tub marked Yogurt. Thses guys worked very very hard and now buy muliti million dollar properties off me - no one helped them and most of them really have had nothing more than basic education. I have nothing but respect for these people and I am the first to set anyone in my offce straight who calls these people "Lucky" for owning millions of dollars worth of Real Estate - Luck certainly had very little to do with it.

We'd better cut the thread away I think boys and girls.

Speeding and road rage may be one thing but this really is another alltogether.

Like Cush said, we are on public display in this forum and although Sydney can be a tough city we may be making a few too many generalisations for this forum.

Goodwill to all mankind (and all that stuff)!

Ive had some one offer to buy mine...but in a nice way...which was good.

And people with highbeams dont bother me anymore, my tint on my rear window dims all headlights to the brightness of a torch with near dead batteries.

I have had peiople try to run me off the road in the swift when I had that, but so far with the mini i just get grins....hopefully it'll stay that way...people around here seem to take well to Mini's apart from the local bogans in VL commonwhores who love their fully sik mullets and beer.

never had that before... maybe they see the 'matic' badge before they see me
or there arent that many testosterone loaded grannies out there any more

I dont mean to offend with what i have said, and it was a generalised assumption, but i was directing more towards the stereotypical ones that are the ones that annoy me, and i apolagise for any offence i have ccaused to people.

Is that like being different from the 'normal' people because they don't like being grouped or classified, yet contradicting themselves because there is a whole "gothic" clan?

Thats what it is like at my school anyway... these people are odd.

yes, but i only say that i am goth to describe the stereotype that i am, i dont see myself as trying to make myself different, i dress how i like and look how i like and that happens to clash with the stereo type i just used the "goth" thing to try and put an example as to what i may be like...
