bertusgeert 1 #1 July 23, 2010 Slow day at work... Last night a roommate came home and made the comment that he's rarely met anyone as laid back as I am. He then wanted to know if it's the South African or the Australian in me. I've spent some of my formative years in each of these places. So, which of these is the most laid back? --------------------------------------------- As jy dom is moet jy bloei! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 37 #2 July 23, 2010 Mel Gibson is Australian, he doesn't seem very laid back to me of late. I don't think you can generalize entire nations like that, there are all sorts of personalities in every country. She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
