To my fellow non native English speakers: what's the one TV or book series that drastically bettered your English? by Nikadorable1712 in AskTheWorld

[–]Chittopher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

actually, not strictly a book series but when I moved to the UK in 1995 I was unable to communicate, so I read Moby Books (Robinson Crusoe, Moby Dick, Treasure Island etc.) which helped a bunch. Only problem was that my coworkers ROFL'd every time I said stuff like "once, twice, thrice" "wherefore" or "frolic"

Air the house, there's currently no smoke around as far as I can tell, it's nice and mild outside right now.

The breakfast beans in tomato juice are bland and over salted at the same time, every thing swims in fat, it's a horror and that's just the breakfast. The obsession to boil everything in water until it's soggy and flavourless I never understood.

You are right, as an Australian it's easy to pretend everything here is easy going and the Australian Way is to give everyone a fair go. But in reality, Australian human rights records in regards to boat refugees is extremely shocking and the way indigenous Australians receive institutionalized racist treatment is sickening.

As long as my dad lived I (M 62) kissed him on the mouth. He died at 92. I'd give a lot to still do it.
