    @jegga the only thing i have to say is, do you remember that time when, while Katy Perry's music was fucking atrocious, she was at least decent to look at?

    That seems like a while ago , I blame Russell Brand .

    Not for the music , that was shit before she met him but she used to look like Zooey Deschanel with a pornstars body.

    Ok..what? Self described Asians are claiming the word Asian as a descriptor for them is 'incredibly racist service'..and it makes the front page of stuff.

    If you think your own ethnic background "Asian" is a pejorative then I think it might be you with the problem not the restaurant.

    https://www.stuff.co.nz/life-style/110487760/woman-slams-racist-service-after-group-referred-to-as-asians-on-auckland-cafe-receipt

    I can actually understand her logic. She just wants to be seen as everyone else in her native country and when some someone refers to her as "Asian" there can be whole shitload of loaded nuances that goes with that term.

    Being of that ethnicity if it happened to me I might be annoyed, depends on how I was treated by the staff. Maybe I'd boycott the place if I felt that strongly (depends how good the food was....). Maybe I'd tell my mates. I don't think I'd go whingeing to the media about it though, seems like the response was disproportionately strong

    I've never quite understood why Kiwi's group everyone from Iran - the Philippines as "Asian" and then get hot and bothered when called an Aussie.

    Given the negativity associated with "Asian" I can understand that she got triggered. We wouldn't be questioning her stance if the restaurant worker had described a customer as "black"

    Why ring the Ferald though? That I don't get

    Why? Is it because it would be weird to describe an Asian as black?

    I know in NZ we never really are comfortable with describing people as black but it seems to be extremely accepted over here in the UK.

    I had a black Brit working for me in the UK one time who we were trying to get to serve on a diversity committee. Another colleague referred to him as black when an HR person, black, female from the US, took offence on his behalf and said we should use the term African American. He ( the black guy) said he wasn’t American or African and he was offended at her presumption. We didn’t get him to serve.

    Didn't some US interviewer on tele keep asking a British sprinter about how he felt as an African American about some specific achievement ... I may be mistakem. Will have to google.

    Hmmm ...

    @mariner4life Fuck no. Could you imagine.

    Interviewer: so, the Fern is a place where men and women can hang out online and talk sports and other shit.
    Fern: men and woman. There can be only one. We don't know what happened to the others. It's actually a bit suspicious.

    Strange thing is that the only other that anyone can remember was called 'Rugby4Life'.

    Missing.

    Maybe now just 'Rugby4'

    Then again it’s pretty suspicious that he hasn’t denied killing anyone.

    No I haven't.

    Just a reminder to be careful what you say on here about me, you are all traceable.

    I call dibs on saying bit on camera when they make the Netflix doco about him .

    I seem to recall you using this phrase - "Attention seeking media whore".

    Just saying.

    There was a Dan Carter groupie back in 2004. I think she was called DanCarterAwesome or some shit like that. Also had a DC avatar. She thought Carlos Spencer was deliberately playing the flat back line because he was jealous of DC and wanted to sabotage him.

    Funny thing, they all mentioned they were flying off somewhere on holiday, and then they never posted again...
