Really exciting stuff – there couldn’t be more than 20 cms between them when they turned the corner together after Alonso came out from the final pit stop

Ads for Aussie in the UK not allowed
Siren replied to 2pints-mate's topic in General off-topic discussions
A few years ago an otherwise little known Aussie divorce lawyer took out a series of putrid ads in the UK including one which screamed "Ditch the Bitch" to get publicity. So this is not the first (and won't be the last) time some Aussies confuse 'vulgarity' with 'sense of humour'. -
Not all are worth sharpening, Ocean.

CRY by 湘南の風Feat. MINMI 超cool! -
Quote: how do you justify calling somebody your 'subordinate?' Kind of arrogant, ne! I didn't call them my 'subjects'! I understand that you never have anyone working for you but there is nothing arrogant about it. I hire/train them (so that they can be useful with their expansive LL.B. or MBAs) and decide how much they get paid and give them advice about how to advance in their career. If they think I am off my trolley (which is entirely possible of course), they would try to persuade (but never argue with) me or head for the highway. You can see I am in a good mood today, ta

I don't argue with my subordinates/GFs. I shout they jump. That's pretty much it.

OK, she is a bit strange and/or they are a bit strange. So what? The topic is a dead horse. -

Ocean has been his usual sacrilegious self to ameliorate the situation. -
Apparently you haven't been to some of the lingerie places in Shibuya.

Echineko's Photo!?

I think she is definitely more interesting than the other one who talks about being sexy. -

Niseko Probs
Siren replied to bushpig's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
Quote: I think that's one of the best posts on this thread. I was there a few weeks ago and, frankly, not very keen on going back to join a melee of noisy silly drunken opinionated (usually about how silly the Japanese are and how things are better done in Australia!) Aussies. The pattering was non-stop whether in the queue or in the gondola! Sure, the Koreans are a haughty bunch but they normally keep to themselves and don't cause a scene. Some of the Chineses (maybe Hong Kongers?) are amazing. They have their domestic maids with them on a ski trip! -

Quote: She has worked and travelled all over the world and lived about 5 years of her life outside of Japan. Yet she still finds western drunken behaviour to be uncomfortable. I put this down to being a cultural difference You sound like this is a 'Japanese' problem. Is anyone here 'comfortable' or happy with (regardless of culture) drunken behaviours? -
