    Tarshi was hilarious. I must say that you're doing a fine job of representing for the Down Under these days. LMFAO @ "fellow Aussies have run into the sunset with their chocolate kings never to return lol". I literally imagined you guys running away skipping through the daisies and giggling that you'd won in the end.

    I cannot believe that Australia is that bad. I know it's a thinly populated continent, but there have to be at least a few pockets of African-American men, no? Active duty? Ex-military? Multinational corporation employees? Nada?

    I'm pretty sure she hated me, if it's the person I'm thinking of lol. Australia honestly is just rubbish. I think there's an army base somewhere here I think in WA, apparently there's African Americans there, but it's too hot where it's located lol where I work it's a sea of white with the exception of one Indian guy.

    I don't know if you've heard of Pauline Hansen, she's basically the Australian equivalent of Trump, but her views aren't as bad. She's trying to do something about migration. Her opinion is that we're losing 'Australia' all our houses are being purchased by overseas investors and Indians are over running the place. She thinks we could consider Australia multicultural if there were a large variance of ethnicities. How it is here is similar to the UK, complete cities over taken by Indians and Asians to the point it doesn't feel like Australia and she sees it only getting worse. I don't know how bad it is there with housing, but here where I am in Brisbane a city that's nowhere near as advanced as other cities, the average house price for a standard home is 800k.

    $800K is extreme, even in a place with a booming economy, but I know that smaller cities like Brisbane receive unequal attention in terms of economic development efforts and have a difficult time attracting firms that pay higher wages. That kind of economic pressure can certainly feed worker anxiety about immigration and the pressure it puts on costs of everday goods.

    I can’t imagine Tarshi hating anyone. Nevertheless, I am glad you are still here, hanging in there at the site.

    Australia is all the way cooked. It's beyond a joke. And it's not getting any better. I'm pretty much ready to move to Italy lol. Or just be a nomad with a van lol, this ain't living.

    I think she didn't like me because North and I used to have good banter going and I don't think she liked it. Or maybe I'm getting her confused with someone else. I know there was a chick with sexy or legs or sexy legs or some sht in her name lol she wasn't feeling my presence at all.
