I guess they didn’t want people to end up calling it P Road

    You assholes constantly show up where you’re not wanted, post the most inflammatory takes possible, accuse everyone who disagrees with you of racism, and generally engage in bad faith.

    Take the hint and fuck off.

      I have done nothing of the sort. I have not accused you of racism nor engaged in bad faith arguments.

      In this exchange, I suggested that if you’re capable of learning a longer made up English word, then learning a comparatively shorter te reo Māori word shouldn’t be too challenging.

      I’m happy to leave it there.

        Papakangahorohoro doesn’t even look or sound hard. If you want hard, try wrapping your head around figuring out how to pronounce Welsh - Who are the real British people, and not those savage Germans calling themselves “English” -

        For example, imagine your touring the village of Llanhyfryddawelllehynafolybarcudprindanfygythiadtrienusyrhafnauole and decided you wanted to catch a train to Liverpool but on your way there you accidentally take the wrong train and end up in Fairbourne at Gorsafawddachaidraigodanheddogleddollonpenrhynareurdraethceredigion rail station. Makes for a great photo opportunity at least.
