Looks like yet another storm in a tea cup from the easily offended no sense of humour and we hate Australia mob
This Singlet and T-shirt has been available for a number of years on the web, on eBay and in many shops around the country until some super sensitive poonce from Canberra on an end of season footy trip to Cairns with his team decided to get himself all offended and post a pic etc and then the usual easily we hate Australia types all jumped on it (seems some ACT AFL players are over sensitive)
So is this RACIST or simply a singlet that’s says you are proud to be Australian and if you don’t like it here leave.
Is this yet another storm in a tea cup from the easily offended humourless types

Wrong, 3 times at least. I did not comment because it was the first time I saw you write that, it was the third time.
Of course they were payed in fact they were payed different amounts depending on what roll they played
I personally believe that the world benefits to some small extent to having define rolls for both male and female to relate to and identify with...
Well actually it's you who have altered what said as never said that they faught about a flag i said they faught under a flag big difference and flags in the milatry play a very big roll

oh my god i you must really dislike my posting style if you are able to recall the wrong use of a a word in posts from several weeks ago and still be able to link them to me in this thread, and why hide them behind a spoiler bar are you afraid that you may come off as puttiful and petty coz in my opinion you do which is just plain sad and i feel sorry for you that you are so obsessed with grammer that you have to focus this intently on it, even i who have to focus on it just to get by dont let it consume my life that much, it seems you have a bigger disability than i do

A cheap shot is a cheap shot, period.
Seriously? Lack of breeding? You jest surely!

You accused me of commenting on your incorrect use of the word roll the first time I saw it.. I have proved to you were wrong. Those examples are not from several weeks ago either. I don't expect anyone else to be interested, so that is why I used the spoiler box.
I have a good memory, I remember things that are odd or out of place. As I posted before I have never commented on your spelling/typo/grammar errors before so don't go on as if I do.
I commented roll should be role... you are the only one that has been going on since then. For someone that doesn't care... you sure don't look like it.

The thing is, no one made fun of anyone's spelling or grammar, except those few posters who banter amongst themselves over mistakes, clearly typos.
There used to be a culture in CW that resorted to that kind of stuff but those days are long gone.
You can pretend outrage at whatever you choose,( not my circus, not my monkey.) however, I won't stand by being accused of something that I haven't done, just because someone else chooses to rewrite my posts to suit their agenda.
Lack of breeding, lol.

I agree Kilroy and old posts are trawled through to make cheap shots and to justify their actions.
Also the reposting and FULL definitions of what others post is annoying and rude. And calling the "you changed my post" mantra seems to be the latest whinge.
To make comment on anybody's posting style of grammar, syntax or spelling is rude and should not be happening on here.
