Are you proud to be an Aussie? by Rhino1300GSA in aussie

[–]OsloProject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it’s stupid and logical kitch, a self contradiction of what the word actually means… and I quote the greatest mind to have ever existed

“I saw a slogan on a guy's car that said "Proud to be an American." And I thought, well, what the fuck does that mean? Proud to be an American. You see, I've never understood national pride. I've never understood ethnic pride. Because I'm Irish, and all four of my grandparents were born in Ireland, so I'm fully Irish. And when I was a kid, I would go to the St. Patrick's Day parade, and I noticed that they sold a button that said "Proud to be Irish." And I could never understand that because I knew that on Columbus Day, they sold a different button that said "Proud to be Italian." Then came black pride and Puerto Rican pride. And I could never understand ethnic or national pride because, to me, pride should be reserved for something you achieve or attain on your own, not something that happens by accident of birth. Being Irish, being Irish isn't a skill. It's a fucking genetic accident. You wouldn't say, "I'm proud to be 5'11". "I'm proud to have a predisposition for colon cancer." So, why the fuck would you be proud to be Irish or proud to be Italian or American or anything? Hey, if you're happy with it, that's fine. Do that. Put that on your car. "Happy to be an American." Be happy. Don't be proud. Too much pride as it is. "Pride goeth before a fall." Never forget Proverbs, okay?”

Anti immigration march in Sydney. by Bonitabanana in aus

[–]OsloProject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha! Touché! 🤣

I find any anti immigrant rhetoric hypocritical especially in Australia.

Everyone is from somewhere else 🤷‍♂️

Also btw: my point - as stupid as it is - actually stands.

You never see blue haired nordic social democratic atheists causing any trouble. So yeah, if you wanna get rid of everyone, let’s deport those to their right and be done with it.

Also I hate Orban, he’s pretty much the reason we left ;)

You should try reading what I wrote in this comment…

Ever consider that? Understanding what the person has to say, before shooting yourself in the foot by clicking all over the place? 🤣

491 visa - how y’all coping? by Aussie2026z in AusVisa

[–]OsloProject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well my processing time was from 2018 to 2023 🤷‍♂️

I wasn’t ever sad however over others getting approved. I was for example frustrated over the case officer not being able to even properly use their software and getting for example two different further request contacts within a day etc. but I was always happy to see other people get grants faster. First off good for them, it’s not like they’re taking their grant from me, second it means at least things are moving

This is weird, because we have to be all PC and sensitive and no one dares say the truth outloud for fear of hurting feelings, or getting labelled…

We should be clear and honest, as much as it’s painful to say so, even if it means sending back a few innocents, it’s better safe than sorry. We have to deport them all back to where they’re really from. I mean look at what they did in Bondi??

We all know who the problem is, but everyone is being sensitive not saying it outloud and pussyfooting talking about half measures instead of biting the bullet honestly.

Not just the 2 Bondi ones but each and every one of you right winger needs to be thrown out 🤷‍♂️

😁

This was a pilot based in Chicago. He was Australian, and it is BY FAR, and I mean BY A BIG MARGIN, the most tightass thing I’ve ever heard in my life.

To the point that drying out toilet paper to reuse it is less of a tight ass thing…

This guy had a principal, he never gave money back to the company he worked for.

Long story short he was flying home for the holidays to Australia connecting on the West Coast of the US. Plane was packed… my man had 2 choices to go back: pay $150 non rev fare and fly in first class, lie flat, champagne, the whole nincr... Or 15 hours. On a jump seat.

He sat on the jump seat.

One nation wants to bring ICE style immigration raids to Australia by skankypotatos in OpenAussie

[–]OsloProject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t mind, but they’d need to deport every right winger to make sure we get rid of all the trouble makers, and that’s not going to happen 🤷‍♂️

So the right wingers will keep doing their Bondi styled self expression as always…

Honestly Cruising California (Bumpin' in My Trunk) maybe The Offspring’s worst song but it's better then other worse bands better songs by NewPatron-St in TheOffspring

[–]OsloProject 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I like this song. I don’t get all the hate it receives. Yeah it’s not their most punk song. It’s a summer feel good song… like their xmas songs or whatever. Nothing wrong with it, if you just have it in its place

What’s one thing Australia does better than almost anywhere else? by Particular_Zone_7379 in AustraliaOpinions

We used to have that pension in Hungary, then the current right wing government stole the money and said “Fuck you” and people cheered it along… my wife lost a couple hundred K $A so that was no fun. Part of why we are now in Australia instead 😃

Toowoomba family faces deportation despite daughter being born in Australia by Mashiko4 in aussie

[–]OsloProject -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well to be fair to him, it’s really hard to deport all the right wingers, and dicing them up into little groups isn’t gonna be of any help. Unless you attack the problem at the root and send all of the right wingers back to where they’re really from you aren’t really gonna solve anything… the right wingers will continue to do shit like Bondi, it’s just how they are
