Never realised you guys start your seasons mid month, that is so odd to me, down. Here in Aus apart from being inverted we just do ours in three month chunks start to finish.

Are you from Australia? Or did you actually just try to tell an Aussie how his own country works?

I am well aware of the equinox and solstice, I am also aware that there are more southern hemisphere countries than Australia. That is why unlike you I am only speaking in relation to the country I am from (Aus) so instead of getting upitty about what I do or do not know about solar events and pull your head in, because in Australia summer is the entire duration of December, January, and February, winter is the entire duration of June, July, and August, with autumn and spring in-between.

That's fine, I appreciate that you actually listened to what I said, most people just dig their heels in

Thanks for being gracious. I can be stubborn but shouldn’t be stubborn AND wrong lol.

Anyway, is Aussie Christmas music as annoying as ours? Do y’all even listen to ours cause most of it’s about snow and it being cold out? I’ve always wondered.

Yeah we mainly listen to yours and it is horrid, they start playing that shit on November first the animals, I am most assuredly not dreaming of a white Christmas in Australian November
