A comment was made about how people thought Brisbane peaked in the 80s and 90s. The response was something unexpected.

WHEREZ YA DAD FROM? POLAND?

_Your dad is from where overseas? Russian? Yugoslavia? Polish? South Africa? I’m picking places that aren’t Asian or Indian.

To be honest, it sounds like it was shit. How did he get a good curry? Or kick ass dumplings?

This is the new world. Everyone is here. The whole world lives in Australia. That’s what makes it great._

It's so tiringsome. Brisbane WAS a coherent paradise in the olden days. Why do people think that because we have half of Indo-Hongkong here that we are something better? Apparently in 1985 you could take a train and there were seats everywhere, houses were 100,000 and jobs were available for everyone, only 10-20 % of people went to uni.

Today Brisbane is a giant refugee camp for the third world from HK and India.
