not sure what the point of this was, doesn't seem like it was a travel story, which it should be without the bummer story!

I doubt Bieber drinks beer and if he does it's probably the sort of overpriced low volume obscure stuff @MN5 likes so they might have more in common than he thinks.
He looks more like a barcadi breeder fan to me

I reckon he'd drink anything as long as it's expensive and it can be licked out of the small of a model's back

This is glorious. Did you know the term 'adulting' that you see in those cute facebook meme's and in edgy articles is actually sexist? Well read away and learn the ways of the world my friends:
The word 'adulting' is gross. It's also sexist, says Lenny letter editor
Young women are just afraid to be public about their actual achievements because if their public persona is self-assured, they are also perceived to be less likable.
What is actually glorious is the reaction to it on facebook. I don't want to sound too optimistic but it kinda looks like people are starting to wake up to this nonsense.
This comment sums up my hope
"My spirit is infinitely bouyed by the unanimous repudiation throughout the comments section of this utter tripe. Ironically, an utterly divisive piece seems to have brought people from differing ideologies together in opposition to its stupidity. A rare win on the internet"That and one of my leftist friend whom I engage with politically from time to time trying to wear her down with logic also commented about how crap it was. I'm taking that as a very small victory.
I came across that article yesterday and couldn't stop laughing at how stupid the claims and conclusions that were being drawn.

The 'cultural advisors' are nothing but money grubbing scum. All about meeting after meeting with exorbitant hourly rates plus fully catered meals, travel costs etc etc.
They don't do jack shit, and very often do NOT represent the thoughts of local iwi/hapu, nor do they have the authority to make decisions.
It's a fucking disgusting gravy train.
Why am I thinking of Tuku while reading this...
And don't get me started on the truck driver from Huntly!!

Obvious exposed chasm joke here going begging.

@taniwharugby That's fine. Just how many clothes do I need to wear to be culturally sensitive?

@antipodean just a G-string or a pair of budgie smugglers should deal with it, afterall, that makes you not nude, sorted!

She certainly is at large
She is one scary woman , she tried to smother a kid with her belly a while back. She belongs in an institution.
Doesn't the story say she lives in one?

@dK said in Alternative needed from the absolute crap of stuff.co.nz:
Why is being sensitive to other cultures an issue?
Because this is an example of looking really hard for some outage, when really there was none.
When you have to pull out your phone and show some university type an instagram pic saying "look, look what she did!" you just have manuafactured outrage. It's worse because they are really just using a naked chick outrage story to generate clicks.
And I find it hard to give a toss about a mountain supposedly being upset at a naked butt. More important things to worry about in the world.
