      Less disgusting than allowing children to be slaughtered so that feeble excuses for men can own firearms to compensate for their inadequacies

      Less disgusting than the genocide in Palestine

      Less disgusting than Uighurs being used for slave labour because of their religion

      There are many disgusting things in the world, this is light-hearted fun

        Ah yes, the two choices: drinking beer from a shoe or committing genocide.

        I get that you’re upset about these things, but they don’t really have anything to do with this post.

        Even the comment you’re replying to is asserting a different kind of disgusting.

          I’m Australian, and people often seize the shoey as a way of telling me that we’re all uncivilised filth

          It’s a sore spot, especially when it’s just a laugh

          I’ve never actually done a shoey

            To be fair, the Aussies that are doing shoeys are uncivilised filth. Ive also done a ton of shoeys and they are disgusting, you can taste the shoe.

      If you’re that close to disrespecting them as a nation on the world order for having some unique tradition you don’t share, you never really respected their culture and were waiting for a chance for it to be excusable

      There are two very different types of respect; respect for a person as a human being, and respect for a person as an authority. But because we use the same word for these two different things, people often talk as if they were the same thing. So for example, when someone in authority says “If you don’t respect me, I won’t respect you.” What they’re actually saying (and justifying) is “If you don’t respect me as an authority, I won’t respect you as a human being.”
