@Machpants I might be wrong, but my guess is that it is to do with using Aotearoa rather than NZ?
Ah, a bit of casual racism, gotcha. If the unofficial name kiwi can apply to New Zealanders, then fair to say Aotearoa can apply to New Zealand

Yeah, a magazine either being ignorant or casually racist, prolly not a good look.

Fuck me, what a confusing set of posts. I too thought we were laughing at the OP. His ignorance, and also the weird use of laughing emoji's seemed odd.
And I can't for the life of me understand how someone controlling the handle of a NZ magazine wouldn't know what Aotearoa is and then manages to get a few thumbs ups and hearts in response
I feel very dumb(er) right now.

haha goes to show how easy miscommunication can happen. The magazine saying something out of order i didn't get at all. I thought we were laughing at the OP.

In the late 60's - early 70's we had Chris Amon, Denny Hulme (winner) and Bruce McLaren in F1. Golden years.

@Bones There are some seriously unhinged delicate flowers wherever rugby, particularly All Blacks, is mentioned. They post like a 12 year old.
Random rugby post completely unrelated to South Africa:
South African: Springboks are best. -

There was a question in the Stuff quiz a few days back about how many F1 drivers NZ has had.
I could think of 5, I guessed 7, but the answer is 10.
Three I can't recall ever even hearing of!
