    I’m Australian, and people often seize the shoey as a way of telling me that we’re all uncivilised filth

    It’s a sore spot, especially when it’s just a laugh

    I’ve never actually done a shoey

      To be fair, the Aussies that are doing shoeys are uncivilised filth. Ive also done a ton of shoeys and they are disgusting, you can taste the shoe.

        I don’t want to soak my shoes and have to keep wearing them, I buy good shoes and don’t want to ruin them, and I sure as shit wouldn’t do one from my work boots

          Its funny when you’re young, drunk and stupid. Turns out its actually pretty dangerous since shoes have a lot of bacteria that you shouldnt be drinking.

      I get that you dislike the stereotype, but it still doesn’t have anything to do with the issues you listed.
