Aussie Talk
keyboard warrior: a person who adopts an excessively aggressive style in online discussions which they would not normally adopt in person-to-person communication, often in support of a cause, theory, world view, etc.
This isa new 2015 addition to a well known Aussie Dictionary. I think we all know this type of posting.
I think I may have been guilty of it myself.

Re: Aussie Talk
G'day,
this thread seems to have died like my ill-fated music thread.
Wonder if I can revive it.
I have finally ditched my illusional dream of ever learning Japanese, in this life anyway!
It's a 24/7 enterprise. No more time for Facebook or anything else.
Also you have to live in Japan for some time and/or should be married to a Japanese.
Instead, I hope to learn some Thai, and concentrate on improving my strine.
As a non-ozzy you do have to learn Aussie slang.
Not even a genius like Einstein could guess that "the dogs are barking" can also
mean "my feet are sore, hurting or tired".
Hope to have drawn the attention of some ockers to this thread.
Oorah,
MB aka 'Mike the Fritz'

Re: Aussie Talk
For Londoners (Cockneys), feet are not Dogs but plates. Cockney Rhyming Slang.... Feet = Plates of Meat.
My plates 'urt
I'm sure one of our Aussie members will have the answer for dogs barking

Bristolian,
Straight from one of several Aussie slang dictionaries!
Not sure if I have managed to lure the Aussies on the Forum out of their "hide-outs"!
Have a nice day & weekend.

Re: Aussie Talk
G'day,
No ockers in Thailand?
I doubt it! Perhaps they are too lazy or just don't fancy teaching
foreigners their secret lingo?
So I'll have to post some info for interested forum members:
Lesson No. 1

Re: Aussie Talk
G'day "mates",
I used to think the Brits and Ozzies had one laudable ability in common,
namely to take the piss out of themselves.
Obviously there are always bound to be exceptions to the rule!
So I have decided to restore this moribund thread to its former state
of suspended animation

Re: Aussie Talk
Good afternoon,
changed my mind mates!
Had forgotten quitting is NOT an Aussie trait.
I am sure a large majority of Aussies have preserved a sense of humour.
NO OFFENCE INTENDED!

Good on ya for give'n it a burl.
