How to Introduce Yourself Appropriately - 2021

Include the colour of your skin. Your hair type. Accessories. And, most importantly, the pronouns you go by.

(no, folks... this is NOT satire 🤣)

I don't trust children. They're here to replace us.

It's a thing now for Australian indigenous folk to introduce themselves: "I am an Aboriginal person and a proud transcendent of the Biripi people of Biripi country around Taree and I proudly identify as an Aboriginal person".
When non commercial media refers to a 'first nation' person they also refer to the person's heritage. And so it goes on for gernerations.

Whatever happened to "Hi. I'm Terry, and you are?"

The world's going mad on a daily basis.

Totally agree. The woke brigade have taken over. I am lucky I live in a block of flats where every body is over 55, banter is allowed. Nobody takes offence.
Woke up this morning breathing that's a good start to the day.

Hi, I'm Fred Smurfovitz, I'm of Russian, Ukrainian, Polish, German, Jewish descent, and from the Israeli tribe of Levi. Wait, wait, why are you running away? I just want to know where's the best place to get corned beef on rye with a dill pickle, in Hua Hin?

Whoops, should I have read this first before posting my intro in the Hua Hin forums? :P
