Is it the home of the Green Bay Packers ? and did not Rod Steward sing what made Milwaukee famous made a loser out of me...and who was Milwaukee, did she die in vain

I'm guessing that Mr McStewart's song is a reference to the brewing industry in Milwaukee. Aren't the words of the song something like what made Milwaukee famous has made a loser out of me ? Suggesting he is blaming the demon drink for turning him into a mumbling, stumbling alky.

It is indeed the home of the Green Bay Packers. As to?Rod Stewart I do not know.

It is awfully white here. I am staying in a place called Two?Rivers whilst working in Manitowoc on Lake Michigan.

It appears to be very pro Trump with the election was rigged and Twitter is communist signs.

I have not seen any black people and only 8 Asians (4 9f them were in the Chinese take?away.

That is twice you have said 'It is awfully white here'.

Serious questions : Why do you find it so awful that all the people there are white ? Is skin colour the first thing you judge people on ?
Do you really need some other ethic background people to feel comfortable ?

In answer to your question I should perhaps mention that I was born and bred in London. I currently reside in Fort Lauderdale, FL. Both cities are multi-cultural. It is?what I am used to.

It is therefore quite natural to notice when the demographic is markedly different to what you?are familiar with. Note also that my observation was about the place, not the people who live here! So no, I do not judge people by their color.

At?what point did I mention that I was uncomfortable!?! Tbh, I find that question somewhat asinine.

It was more the use of the words 'awfully' white. I hope you meant 'very' rather than it being a negative thing.

I can only imagine what would happen if I said 'it is awfully black round here' about London. There would be benefit dodgers and Labour MPs immediately out kneeling, demanding action and acting like cunts before I could take a breath.

I used awfully in place of very or extremely.
