Old because there's nothing going on? So, if there were wild parties all the time, the land would be young? PLease make sense. Our land is old because it remained together after detachment from all else. It has survived the longest. It doesn't matter why that is so, the argument here is HAS IT? If you want to debate the WHY now, let's go boyo
I said old, geologically. You know, Geology. Rocks (often grey, hard things that foreign visitors throw at you locals) Yes it's old, but the Earth is the same age all over. It's just that in some regions of the planet, the soil is replaced faster than in other places. Some places are prone to erosion, undergo volcanic and other geothermal activity that cycle the land. So, you could say that Austalia's land isn't as.. shall we say.. DYNAMIC as other parts of the world. Australia = STAGNANT.
I know Soph, I used lashed the other day and my flatmate gave me a blank look and said 'oh my god did you just say lashed?'
That's okay. It just freaked out my poor little science brain... it wasn't anything personal, because there are several hypotheses out there regarding human evolution.. i guess i was stating my view and not listening to others. (maybe i should feel bad, but i dont)

You know your from New Zealand when your girlfriend is your miri or misses You know your from New Zealand when, "Parakai pools" You know your from New Zealand when mates live just down the road You know your from New Zealand when mates turn up to your house uninvited go straight to your cupboard, cook up a feed of megoreng noodles and THEN says "ayeeee sup cuzz! what you been upto?"

You know your from New Zealand when = "you wanna go hit buckies bro?" and finally you know your from New Zealand when after hitting up the local pools the quote that makes you all decide to leave is, "you wanna go do chip ins for a feed?" followed by "yo! keen!" and "yo thats us!" and you already KNOW that the feeds gonna be down at the fish and chip shop and its gonna go something like this... : "boys chuck us your chip-ins?" *chip-ins handed over (not in notes ofcourse, thats too rich) *head up to the counter "uhhh can i get aaaaa $5 chips, 4 deepfried mars bars and $1 mixed sauce and cheese on the chips please?" then, "bro, here take this and go down nd grab a bread and a starz yeah?" "ok sweet cuzz which one? Purple?
