Aotearoa Weekly Kōrero 11/10/2024
Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!
This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.
It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:
- Something interesting that happened to you
- Something humourous that happened to you
- Something frustrating that happened to you
- A quick question
- A request for recommendations
- Pictures of your pet
- A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
- Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)
So how’s it going?

The other day on the train I noticed, in the midst of the morning commuter crowd, a woman with large hair who was wearing a green mini dress and pinky-orange faux fur coat. She really stood out of the pack of corporate blandness and sensible retirees who make up a 9am train to the city. I love stuff like that, it's nice to see someone doing their own thing.
I wish everyone wore more colours. Winter is the worse for this, everyone is in dark colours and it's so depressing.
I think if you could the train an hour earlier, you'd probably see a lot more colour. There's definitely a demographic shift after off peak rates and free gold card travel kick in at 9am.
Even among the corporates, bright shirts and brightly coloured hair aren't uncommon in a government office building.
