Don't like it, Ozzie is better, but I still don't really like

Being an Aussie, I would wonder what it's short for but also if that person was Australian themselves and if that person spent some time somewhere where they were indeed the token Australian.
I was thinking that "Aussie" (this particular spelling) could be used as a nickname for Austin. But no one would use it. Besides, I'm too used to seeing Ozzie and Ozzy used as nicknames.

Did you watch The Ultimatum by chance?
I’m not Australian so I do apologize if you were looking for Australian opinions only, but as an American I don’t like it, though that has everything to do with the sound for me since the association doesn’t stick in my mind as much

I would think “ooh, I wonder what that’s short for?”.
I have never heard of anyone with that name, though.

Honey, in the future, it's polite to think critically about what you want to ask about. Though you can technically post I think like 5 times a week(or day?) It's considered polite / good etiquette to not flood the message board with every thought that flutters into your mind. You can group some of these posts together into the same post.

I disagree…we’re allowed to post 5 times a day, so why be upset that someone does? They weren’t all variations of the same question, I honestly wouldn’t have even noticed they were posted by the same person if not stated here. These boards get pretty quiet sometimes, so I don’t think we should be shaming anyone for using the boards for what they’re quite literally intended for

dually noted!

If I was shaming, I would say something like "you should be ashamed of yourself!" just asking to think critically about what you post is NOT the same thing as shaming.
1
I'm not shaming I am just speaking my peace. When the board gets spammed, threads get pushed down faster.
2
Your language was pretty condescending, though. And you yourself posted 5 things today in rapid succession that could have been grouped together. Pobody's nerfect.

We should all be posting every thought that pops into our heads, and I %100 intend to do exactly that from now on to show my support! 😀 5 posts a day from me 🙂

Exactly, She is so right! I was so wrong!

You commented several times on this... Clearly you either have too much time on your hands or are just that bitter that I mentioned a simple truth? Being rude and passive aggressive by indirectly insulting me on multiple other threads on this board is very childish and unnecessary, though I suppose I shouldn’t be too surprised since I do recall you’re an actual child. Too much screen time, my dear.

I don't understand why you're bullying me. You were right and I acknowledged that. You're really hurting my feelings to be honest. I'm an adult working on a master's program currently.

Lol, I will respectfully refrain from commenting further then…
Mental health, huh?

Stop bullying me or I will report it. I mean it.

She's not a child. Please refrain from personal attacks, ya'll.
Let's just talk about names.

Now she's calling me a Mean Girl

She's calling me "mental" now. I didn't do anything wrong...

I didn’t call you mental. That is some mental gymnastics. It was in reference to the degree your profile stated you’re getting, that I see you now deleted. I just find it equivalent to mean girls in high school going on to become nurses ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Now I'm a Mean Girl? WTF??

I didn't delete it. I edited it because I'm no longer working on my undergrad.

I wholeheartedly second this. These posts should be put into the same one (for future reference) so other people's posts don't get pushed down as quickly. /:
