I won't get mad at you vash any more or any other Australian adult as I now fully understand how and why you are all deficient and it's not your fault it's the schooling system here, and I now feel quite sorry for you all

Just because someone posts about personal experiences and doesn't publish a detailed bibliography of names and sources dragged off the internet doesn't mean it's all made up. Not everybody has to use google as a substitute for thinking.
This is not a court of law, so why should people have to post proof to back up personal experiences? Or are you now issuing writs for slandering Australia?
