It was fun to read but it was “real “ to be aware that you got knicked a bit cuz you ask why with a razored phrase and perhaps slant of eye. Too cool.

A Corroboree is a ceremonial meeting of Australian Aboriginals, where people interact with the Dreamtime through music, costume, and dance. It is sacred to them and people from outside the community are not permitted to partake or observe the event. Sorry
