Text of the page (random words):
al rather than just a normal dick who s been put in charge of the group project you see the same thing in this is trump s america like him becoming president gives him superpowers or something this is getting off topic point is in australia you can run into the prime minister and ask him to help you fix your phone and if he s not busy but refused to help you out he d be kind of a dick of course he should help you out and if i walk into your restaurant and you act like i m a movie star and you re going to be super attentive to my every need because i m the customer i m gonna get creeped out we re suspicious and insulted by what most people in the world consider to be basic manners and vice versa and it makes interacting with foreigners super weird because i always feel like they ve got some invisible heirarchical flowchart in the back of their minds that i don t becausegoodheroesdeservekidneys i have long noticed that americans have absolutely the same cultural attitude to the president as they would to a serving monarchy they just think they don t on a technicality drferox can confirm that if i call someone sir madam i generally mean asshole unless talking to an animal or tiny child and that if i get called ma am i feel like i m being called the asshole which made time in atlanta georgia suoer weird materassassino australians have a very good attitude to respect onionhighonionandrenown so this explains why i have spent the last fourteen years low grade pissed off at nearly every australian i meet because every time i try to be american polite at them it pisses them off and for that matter why my second boss here the one i was so careful to be formally respectful of and always called sir took such an intense dislike to me derinthescarletpescatarian yeah even if that boss understood that you were american and what that meant their instincts would ve been screaming at them the whole time that you were being a dick it s a difficult thing for us to get used to even when we know the culture is different earhartsease as a brit visiting australia the most vivid experience i had of this is in the uk it s really uncool to get into the passenger seat of a cab you re expected to get in the back in australia the reverse was apparently true derinthescarletpescatarian i am only just now realising that inamerican and british movies and stuff people don t get in the passenger seat of a taxi whitmerule covid update you re now meant to get in the back seat for social distancing and it feels so rude sorry taxi person i am not trying to shun you just i know there are rules and we re protecting each other let s be intensely awkward for a while makaeru reblogging this because i just remembered the time molly meldrum absolutely horrified prince charles by describing meeting the queen as i saw your mum last week love lays bleeding one of my favorite travel books described humanity as broadly speaking having two types of culture one where formal is respectful and informal is rude and vice versa australian culture sees formality as hostile or unfriendly and familiarity as warmth it s decidedly not the case in usa as a whole though as with any broad category the dichotomy changes as the group gets smaller wolverrina you put the thing into words padeko different cultures are fascinating searchingcassiopeia look there s honestly a lot of history that build our culture today to be like this we never really had a true aristocracy or class system in australia and was still considered the dirty colonies up until federation in 1901 even when we had the gold rush in the 19th century there were rich people but also anyone could dig up a nugget and get rich so no one really bothered with the rich better than you thing because old johnno down the road who normally is on the piss all day and lives in a swag just picked up a 2lb piece of gold that s worth thousands of dollars so now he can go buy his own pub and sell his own beer but everyone will still think of him as that guy who was always cracking bad jokes at the end of the bar and drinking a minimum of 8 beers a day sure we have rich people but we also pull them back down to earth when they get hoity toity australia is one of the most unionised countries in the world and yeah its true we dont get upset by much but when we do all hell breaks loose look up some of australia s biggest protests and union movements like the convict rebellions eureka stockade the campaign for the 8 hour day and he general history of our australian labor party australia was the second country in the world to grant women s suffrage so many unions and strikes and demands we made in australia demanding equal and fair rights to working class in the 19th century that by federation in 1901 we were ahead of the world with workers rights and equality really the only class system we had was the employer employee divide but we still never bowed down and took it from them just because they boss i m not going to go into what happened in the 20th century but if you re interested definitely look up post war australia the women s working unions in the middle of the century definitely look up the late bob hawke and his legacy the nurse s strike in victoria in the 80s the land rights movement and eddie mabo and go from there i remember in school we were always taught to treat others how you wanted to be treated you were no better or worse than anyone else you want to be treated equal to everyone else and that meant being polite and showing decency and helping each other out it s true we only use titles for teachers or elders indigenous australians use aunty and uncle as a show of respect to their elders but outside of that if someone calls you miss y n or sir or whatever it s just uncomfortable in hospitality and retail some of us will still use sir ma am mainly because we don t know customers names but even then that s rare and usually applied only to elderly we personally don t want to be addressed by titles or even surnames unless it s a nickname which i ll get to so we don t use the titles or surnames for other people with surnames often we use them as a nickname if we dont can t shorten their names getting a nickname a good one not one that is intentionally meant to bully you ofc e g scomo is the nickname for our pm but he s a piece of shit and scomo sounds a lot like scum mo is the biggest show of respect in australia usually it s simply just adding a vowel or changing it up a little i e john johnno darren dazza etc if we can t do it to your first name we do it to your last name if we can t do it to your last name it s either a feature or behaviour and we put it in a good light you ever notice that australians like to make fun of each other and insult each other there s a very subtle difference when it s truly meant to be insulting but that s our way of being affectionate for each other we will point out your flaws and make fun of you and stop if you say no and we will give you a nickname and it s all in good humour it s one of the things i find foreigners get really upset about because they dont understand why we are so rude to each other you build up a hard skin in this country and forget hat sometimes that stuff is a bit insulting it s a very backwards system of respect but it is a very honest one no one is better than you no one is worse than you we are all humans silvergryphonart we treat our acquaintances like friends and our friends like family teasing your friends is expected the same way it is for siblings if you act like someone is above you in a not joking way that s basically declaring that you don t see them as potential friend material that something about them repels you and you want as many barriers between you as possible it would hurt my dad so badly if i ever called him sir confusementation yep and the automatic assumption that you think i m an idiot bitch if i m called ma am the only time it has ever happened and i haven t taken offence has been brand new army recruits cadets who are required to use it while in public to show deference to civilians i legit take less offense from being referred to as a pigdog cunt than i do being called ma am getting a sweary character reference or having a friend call you a mad cbomb is totally fine in aus ma am is not something i associate with respect being included as part of the group or acceptance in any way it s pointing out rather emphatically that you are other alwaysfrowningslightly this is interesting as hell as an american raised in an active duty environment as a kid i called everyone ma am or sir and i wonder how jarring that child would be in australia derinthescarletpescatarian whenever i watch an american show and a kid calls their parents sir and or ma am i immediately assume that the intention is to clue the audience in on the fact that that child is being very severely abused addressing an elderly neighbour or something like that would be seen as charmingly respectful from a kid but doing it to all adults would set off alarm bells in the heads of any australian adult who wasn t familiar with your past they d get it once they learned you were raised around american soldiers though and expect you to grow out of it achronicallive i played an australian teacher in america in a oneact play earlier this year who repeatedly called a highschool student miss lastname and i know you said it s different for teacher student interactions but now i have to assume that that would also be taken very differently in australia he wasn t originally written to be australian but now its really funny to think about what is theoretically going on in his head because there s no actual reason for him to hate this student but given the context of the rest of the play it decidedly makes me wonder lmaooooo derinthescarletpescatarian if he does that to all the students it would indicate to an australian audience that he s very recently changed jobs from a super fancy private school that rich people send their kids to to pretend to be foreign royalty or whatever if he does it only to that student he fucking hates her and thinks she s a snobbish airhead who thinks too highly of herself and he wants everyone to know it teachers don t miss students except in weirdo niche private schools zigdirty i can say with confidence that since uber and lyft have become a thing a whole lot more americans are acutely aware of how you do not get into the passenger seat in someone else s car if you don t know them that well if you have to do so you ask the driver first even if you re paying them this is because a lot of violence and abductions happened right before and at the start of the pandemic lockdown because either the passenger sat in the front and attacked the driver or the typically male driver waited until a usually female driver sat in the front seat and then bam it was a big deal for a hot minute i m super curious how australians handle calling call centers in other places in the us in most call center settings if you don t refer to the caller as mr x or miss y or ma am or sir when you address them you ll actually get a write up and potentially get fired in the philippines they just call everyone ma amsir all the time too if aussies call and get that type of treatment when they call in somewhere is that also an issue for y all also the titles and pronouns and honorifics are so politicized at this point it can start riots it s asinine usamericans are caught between a rock and a hard place because we re expected to be polite and respectful constantly but all of the traditional latin based words are gendered so you can either be rude not using them risk being rude using the wrong one or worst of all risk being overly polite and proper with the terms and get a republican to blow up on you and scream woke over and over realtalk 204 17 780 23 699 zigdirty reblogged comeonamericawakeup makingdonalddrumpfagain follow zigdirty so tired of people not knowing basic us history so just in case anyone seeing this doesn t know lincoln was part of the republican party at the time but that s simply a label ideologically the republican party back then was the progressive party and the democratic party was the conservative party the us s horrendous two party system was made significantly worse by the ideological reversal starting around the 60s which is why republican conservative and democrat progressive today party labels can change at any time so when speaking about past us political parties describe them with descriptor words not the label as their platforms are what really matter realtalk 4 45 175 zigdirty reblogged circus p nut wavesxy follow leaving the sinking ship

shit afoot batmanisagatewaydrug one of the things that struck me most here is the way women are told not to treat their husbands like toddlers by asking them to do basic things like wash their hands but are then encouraged to act like toddlers themselves by seeking permission from their husband to do things like spending money and go out with friends that any adult the issue isn t one partner

makingdonalddrumpfagain follow poorrichardjr a few small points if i may first i am glad these people are recognizing their mistake even if it took them to be personally affected to notice that last sticks in my craw but i get it second we do need to welcome these people back to society not without reservations but with a limited amount of resentment simply because they will immediately run right back to the same echo chamber if they feel their apology is being disregarded and that will make their first decisions to be assholes become founded in steel if we want things to change for the better in this country we need many of these same people on board with it to make those repairs strong this last point is the one that throws a lot of people yeah it took years for these people to change their mind and it eventually took something to happen to them there is a reason for this despite all the warnings most of them never heard them they were submerged in their propaganda bubble and only heard the echo chamber that said trump was great for the country smart and that the opposition are the...
