View Full Version : G' Day
Hi All,
A newbie here, G' Day is just the way how we greet people from Down Under. Sounds silly/funny huh? Anyway, this is a very interesting site. For some reason, I have always got on well with other Asian kids back then when I was at school/uni (btw, me -> Honkie Boy) and just didn't get on that well with other honkies (esp the ones driving the BMWs or sport cars....call me whatever you like but those guys really had an attitude problem). It's great to see we can share experience, comments or whatever in this site. Anyway, will keep coming back to visit. Ta Ta...

I don't understand... 'other Asian kids' or 'Honkie Boy', you confused me.
Be both a honkey and Asian like I am. :D
must be my bad english... I was born in HK and now living in Aust...
with Asian kids, I mean, I always got on well with the Vietnamese, Indo chinese, taiwan, mainland chinese....etc.. I guess in Aust, we pretty much still .... how do I say it? We don't have an Asian identity, a Hongkie is a Hongkie, a chinese mainlander is a chinese mainlander, an indo chinese is indo chinese........

i usually say "HK", like, "he's an HK". or if i'm typing it, i can type "HKer". either that or "Hong Konger".

No, it's not your English. I just misunderstood honkie. I know Hongkie - that I understand.
