A note to non-Australians

[deird_lj]

Whenever I see you guys talk about "rooting for someone", I start snickering - much in the fashion of a teenage boy.

"Rooting"? Over here, it's the crudest way you could possibly discuss having sex.

Feel free to keep saying it (after all, it's a perfectly legitimate word for you guys) but please be aware of the effect it's having on Aussies...

Well, I don't agree with the first part and, as far as I'm aware it's a misquote in any case ;-)
