Whinging NZ

[SPman]

Yep! That pretty much sums it up BD. What ever happened to good old "Patriatism" ??
.

"Patriotism is your conviction that this country is superior to all other countries because you were born in it." - G B S
"Patriotism - the last refuge of the scoundrel."
Pride in your country - yes, but if things are wrong, it is every persons duty, if he truly believes in and is proud of his country, to speak up, bring attention to it or try and put it right.
"It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare" - Samuel Clemens - as true today as when he said it , 100 years ago.

Why not try to focus on some of the "Positives" out there. I'm sure there are many and then try and reverse the "Negatives" This just may help to change the way we look at ourselves and our Great Country.

Louie G described me as 'relentlessly positive' just recently.

Jim sees it as osterichcitus.

I see it as controlling what I can control - and best dealing with what I can't.

That's why the place is going down. You aren't allowed to complain because you are either told to piss off or that other places have it worse.
Gee well, that's alright then.
What happens if someone came to you with a branch stuck in his leg, tell him to harden up because other people have cancer? Because that's the message I seem to be getting from some here. Yes, other countries have it much worse, but what? because of that we are not supposed to talk about the problems facing this one?
Seriously, I don't get it, surely talking about problems is the first step in working out ways to fix them.

I see your point, however, all we talk about is problems...what about talking about the good things and realising that the problems are not really problems...and don't need fixing...you know "what is the worse that can happen"

Stick v Cancer thing a bit ??...I would help.

But to compare whether things are good or bad here you have to look around rather than be insular to realise that things are not so bad here...

Greeeeeeeeeeeen acres is the place to be.

In time to the girls retrieving their dresses from the water tank...

Theres laws for laws here in nz...but we as bikers...meh

[Edbear]

..what is it with people?

KB?

Oo no we didn't pay and we managed to get that particular principal to move on. Never let yourself or your family become a victim. Am I paranoid? Yes. But children have been flagged as "significantly different from their peers", so we have to be paranoid.

Remember they're unique like everybody else...

They're socially interactive. They say "hello" and "good morning". They have no trouble having a laugh or a cry. One's a bit sensitive and another is a bit agressive and another can be a bit short after hours of his peers not getting it, but generally they are good kids and fun to be around.

They don't sit in a corner rocking backwards and forwards, they aren't picked up by grandparents or a paid cargiver and they get fruit, fibre, and carbs in their lunchbox, and water in their water bottle. Weirdos.

Unforgiveable! Ban them and lock them up immediately!

I blame the parents.

Zegackly! How irresponsible can such parents be...?!!!

Ya think the whingings bad now? You ain't heard nothing yet.
Wait till Sam Shitforbrains, and his partner Debbie Dumbbitch start wail'n about there overinflated house value going deep sth real fast, and how hard it is to pay off the 3 Commodores that were booked up against the house.
Feck me, it's going to be a wail'n old time the next 12-18mths.

New Zealand rocks. The whinger's an moaners are just people who can't work out the real priorities.
Look out your windows. Seen any truck bombs go off in the last week.
Had any sudo police force rape n pillage your family home.
Get a grip you lot.

Someone once said"Love it or leave it" so will all you wingers sell your bikes and buy a ticket to where ever.


Absolutely sick of wingers.

[Ixion]

Well now, some people think that there's only two options. Whatever the sheeple want to do to you, roll over and take it up the arse; or, run away.

Other people think there's a third option. Fight back, fight for what you believe in, for what should be. If that be called whinging , good for the whingers. Seems to me that the folk crying "I'm happy to take it up the arse, those who aren't should bugger off" are the real whingers.

"My country, right or wrong. When right to be kept right. When wrong , to be set right".

[Gubb]

Protest is Patriotism.

This morning i went over to the beach..got half a bucket of mussels..came home and lit the barby..got a scnapper out the fridge and cooked it in banana leaf.couple of tomatoes and a bit of garlic.covered it all in lemon peper.scoffed myself stupid...

NZ...... Not a bad spot allright

Then slap my starfish, and call me Liber -Archie.
NZ's not going to the dog's. The local mutt's are just whining more.

[Ixion]

No , indeed it is not. But only because there are still enough people willing to stand up and speak out for what they believe in, whenever the PTB start casting covetous looks in the canine direction.

The price of liberty and all that.

[MIXONE]

Ixion I don't know if you believe in self medication but if you do cut back the dose.
