      From what I know it’s mostly something you do as the loser of a bet.

      Less disgusting than allowing children to be slaughtered so that feeble excuses for men can own firearms to compensate for their inadequacies

      Less disgusting than the genocide in Palestine

      Less disgusting than Uighurs being used for slave labour because of their religion

      There are many disgusting things in the world, this is light-hearted fun

        I get that you’re upset about these things, but they don’t really have anything to do with this post.

        Even the comment you’re replying to is asserting a different kind of disgusting.

          I’m Australian, and people often seize the shoey as a way of telling me that we’re all uncivilised filth

          It’s a sore spot, especially when it’s just a laugh

          I’ve never actually done a shoey

            I get that you dislike the stereotype, but it still doesn’t have anything to do with the issues you listed.

            To be fair, the Aussies that are doing shoeys are uncivilised filth. Ive also done a ton of shoeys and they are disgusting, you can taste the shoe.

              I don’t want to soak my shoes and have to keep wearing them, I buy good shoes and don’t want to ruin them, and I sure as shit wouldn’t do one from my work boots

                Its funny when you’re young, drunk and stupid. Turns out its actually pretty dangerous since shoes have a lot of bacteria that you shouldnt be drinking.

        Those all sound like great past times, but I draw the line at drinking out of a shoe

        and yes

        It’s a fucking joke
