@morachbeag Finding out it's all gibberish is hilarious ngl lol, still a bop!
@mementomaori "So cold in the desert tonight" sir, I live in a suburb at the edge of a subtropical forest 😅

@mementomaori Had some dude in britain once ask me "so are there lots of kangaroos and surfboards where you are" and like "no, but got alleys that smell like pee, if that's any help" 😅
@morachbeag I've heard some absolutely cooked shit about how people think Maaori live lol.
@mementomaori omg a professional management lady from Jakarta I knew had to explain to a yt Aussie CEO in an interview that Jakarta, is not, in fact, 'a small village' like the internet is *right there in front of you* dude🙄
@morachbeag Omg lmao
@mementomaori Dude was all "so you lived in a hut?"
(blank stare) "More like high density highrise, but good try"

@morachbeag I swear to the Atua, my Aussie aunt (by marriage) once asked me when I was a kid... if NZ had electricity.
@mementomaori o for the love of god sheesh 🤣
@morachbeag I've judged youse all on that comment ever since lol.
