Calling Me 'Kiwi' is Racial Discriination Says NZ Woman

If you have something so weird, strange or off-topic to post and think it doesn't belong in any other forum; you're probably right. Please put all your gormless, half-baked, inane, glaikit ideas in here. This might also be a place where we throw threads that appear elsewhere that don't belong ANYWHERE end up, instead of having to flush them. FORUM RULES STILL APPLY.

I happen to think that calling people from New Zealand kiwis is an insult to the country's native flightless bird.

Bit late for that now. They've been known as Koories for a few decades now.

Well, they do, and rightly so. There's a big difference between a 'coon bar' and a 'Kiwi bar'. I guess that's your point, but irony is difficult to decipher sometimes.
