Re: Rant Thread
I think my problem may lie in that I was subconsciously comparing it to Rise of the Guardians, given that that was the animated winter film that everyone was talking about last year. And I LOVED that film. Like a lot. And I know it's unfair to compare Dreamworks and Disney but... it's just something I do.
Oh well, looking forward to Walking With Dinosaurs 3D this weekend! It's like my childhood in a film. xD

Re: Rant Thread
Bike lanes on the freeway! Be so many dead here haha!! Nah they aren't supoosed to ride in the Bus lanes here (as far as I'm aware) but we don't have alot of them anyway. They do like to ride in the middle of the road in peak hr so the poor bus can't overtake while the footpath (which has markings for bikes on it too) is freakin empty!! Which is beyond annoying when going home >.>cowmuflage wrote:Yup we sure do XD They are mostly on motorways and stuff. I will say the part of Auckland I live in is pretty shit when it comes to bus lanes. No one cares about West Auckland because it's bogan cityLupisDarkmoon wrote:You guys have a lane just for buses? O.o That's called "the road" here! Every now and then you find a bicycle lane but nobody uses it, except on campuses. It's Michigan, everything is so far apart that bicycling to work is some sort of weird hippy dream. xD
Then again, knowing the laws that have passed recently (FUCKING "RAPE INSURANCE"?! FUCK YOU MICHIGAN) I wouldn't doubt it if my state made it legal to start shooting cyclists if they go too slowly.
Uh Rape insurance? Oh my O.o
and yeah rape insurance 0.o ...(!)

Man I don't like being called a Jafa. Call me one and I will kick you in the trouser snake or your pants cat.
Really if you call me that you will come out of it with a sore pants animal
Edit: should tell you what Jafa means it means "Just Another Fucking Aucklander" or sometimes "Just Another Fuckwit From Auckland" and is used by every other part of New Zealand. Because everyone hates Auckland. >.>

So why do kiwi's hate on Aukland? Is it the NZ equivalent of Frankston or Rockingham? (undesirable suburbs in Aus. or should i say reputations as I've never actually lived in either to gauge).

Re: Rant Thread
Oh AND you get mad at ME when my best friend buys me all 8 Harry Potter movies for Christmas because YOU bought them. Well one has to be taken back you say. Yours are Bluray. Hers are DVDs. I don't HAVE a Bluray player NOR can I afford one. I say I'm taking yours back and we can just buy me some books with the money. You agree. Then when she leaves you pitch a huge ass fit about me taking yours back and so quickly saying I would because they were a black Friday special at 4 bucks a DVD. Guess what? I DONT CARE. I DONT HAVE A BLURAY PLAYER AND I CANT AFFORD ONE AND AM QUITE HAPPY THAT WAY. LEAVE. ME. ALONE!

Re: Rant Thread
It's to do with a lot of things. The more south you go the stronger the hate gets. Auckland is the biggest city in NZ and more culturally diverse then the other cities and people hate us for that (when you see how white places in the south Island are it's crazy man). People hate how their tax money goes towards things like roads in Auckland and say "all our tax money goes to those bloody jafas" when it's more the other way around XD.Castile wrote:I totally read Jafa as in the red sweet and was like "maybe thats kiwi slang for ranga?"cowmuflage wrote:Ugh bikers who act like they own the road.

Oh and how we get a lot of big things here but that's again mainly because we are a big city. I've met people from Christchurch who think we all drink lattes in fancy cafes because we are all rich too :S
Sometimes it's like we are part of Australia! It's pretty stupid really. Hell sometimes I've met people who I've been the first Auckander they have met before and they have just grown up to hate us! We get treated the same way as Australians sometimes and people can be pretty mean to you guys D:

Re: Rant Thread
Makes sense to me. Wellington is a nice place so easy to just walk everywhere! I have not been to Sydney or Melbourne only the Goldcoast and Townsville but mum and dad have and they have said both are nice places to vsit.Wain wrote:An Aussie analogy is that Auckland and Wellington are often compared to Sydney and Melbourne respectively. Auckland is the rich financial capital where people are supposed to be less friendly and Wellington is supposed to be the artsy city with a soulThese are just stereotypes... I'm just pointing out an Aussie analogy to how it's viewed
Personally I've loved both cities.

I'm not surprised Australians are treated badly, Kiwi's don't exactly get treated well here either sometimes (esp when the Rugby is on) My fiance works with alot of Maori's on the mines tho and they all seem pretty lovely
