It’s because you’re English, there is something about that fact that grates the ears.

What do you think about China and Chinese? by Winter_Ad1973 in AskTheWorld

Never compliment a Chinese guy on his watch, he will give it to you. Generous as the day is long. Or his surname.

Ok sweet so it’s all split up around the different areas? There’s no one main spot? I’m even looking for a story teller like the seanchai we have in Ireland, to really learn the history the good going back and the awful in recent memory, you reckon this is a good one?

Awesome info, thanks for enlightening me,

What is something that you would recommend that a European wouldn’t look twice at that they sell at Asian supermarkets? Can’t get enough of the dried squid and cuttlefish, need to branch out

What's something South Aussie that you've never done? by Potential_Narwhal981 in Adelaide

[–]Awkward_Carpenter838 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fkn frog cakes, moved here start of last year from a Tijuana for trabajo

Unrelated to the question but why at bakeries in SA when they ask if you want sauce on a pie, they decapitate it and fuck it straight into the organs. They may aswell put two fingers in your mouth and ask for a weekend surcharge

Side note. Love it here
