![]() It feels nice when people say nice things about us. I guess my feeling is we should self-promote a little and promote other people a lot. And I feel she kind of self-promotes a lot. Though I still wear them (at home), because they're really comfortable. I made t-shirts with my blog address on it. But it's probably okay (and helpful) to promote yourself every so often.īut I used to be very much like van der Boom's vision of Americans. Nor do you need to Retweet every nice thing someone says about you. ![]() You really don't need to put out a Tweet every ten minutes linking to your book and quoting some praise it's received. Or I think I'm more embarrassed about self-promotion. And I'm more conscious of doing it myself. I think Australia has rubbed off one me, because I've grown intolerant of bragging. In our Aussie nature, we work really hard and we’re willing to have a real go, but then we’re not willing to celebrate it or publicize ourselves, and unfortunately that’s a lot of the way that you become a success in America. She says, In Australia you’re kind of always apologizing for being an actor and you’re not allowed to be a wanker about it. She's asked about the difference between working in America and Australia. I think what Van der Boom says here is insightful. She says when she first moved to the US, she shared a house with a bunch of other struggling Australians. She was really into the monologue, and the teacher encouraged her to pursue acting. Van der Boom says her interest in acting came from doing a monologue in school. I'm not sure we talk that much about body parts probably more about bowel function. If that's what makes a bogan, I think most of my family would qualify. Van der Boom considers herself a bogan because she talks about body parts, bowel function, and she likes swearing. Though I don't know when the interview was. I don't picture granola as being a bogan breakfast.Īt the time of the interview, she had been living in the US for three years. Sort of.įor breakfast (during the interview) she eats granola with milk. It's on a website called Billabout. It's Australian. Here's an interview with Claire van der Boom. They make us feel worthwhile, and our mood lifts. They think we're attractive and hilarious. Then someone outside our circle comes along who's not sick of us. And they probably are feeling the same about us. Just seeing them, and having to talk to them, puts us in a shitty mood. We sometimes get in a state where everything about them annoys us. ![]() The other idea is that we get really sick and fed up with the people we live with, and we crave change. ![]() We relax our inhibitions and let our shit out. One is the idea that we are rudest to those we love,bo because we feel the most comfortable around them. Or at least appreciate it.īack to what I was saying before. There are uncomfortable (and kind of boring) moments of quietness in this show. Could it be that some people make us happier than others? One person might make us tense and bored while another makes us feel relaxed and amused. ![]() I guess what I'm wondering is whether it's always about masking depression. When the sister leaves, the man remains jovial almost as if the sister was the needed anti-depressant. Then his sister meets them for dinner and the unhappy man is suddenly very jovial. What about instances where it's not like an on/off switch but instead the outsiders act as a kind of mood-lifter? Let's say someone is in a bad mood with their partner. The theme of this episode is a depressed person being cheerful around other people but then turning off once they're alone with their partner. I don't know if I agree with that or not. Because love is just a lazy generalisation that we use for 100 different feelings and as many situations.
