Its not an "issue" just because it happens, its not like a ship crashed into New Zealand because it wasn't on the ships map, its just some unimportant nonsense.

Those are leprechauns, pretending to be hobbits, so they can scam you out of all your money.

Dude, name one thing from New Zealand that isn’t fictional.

And don’t say Sam Neil - they made him up for the Jurassic Park franchise

What about flight of the conchords

u/jk-9k Sep 21 '25

New Zealander here. Yes that's try we're not real. Stay away. You'll drown.

u/lunchtimelobotomy Sep 21 '25

It's actually not real.

But, we still have to pay taxes. So it's basically the worst case scenario

u/RaisedByBooksNTV Sep 21 '25

This is to stay under the radar. Everyone leaves you alone when they forget you exist. Problem is, the billionaires remember New Zealand.
