OK - this is just to list generalitzations of your country that shit you. For example I'm Australian and it shits me to tears when I meet someone from America or whatever and they expect me to run around sticking my thumb up the arses of whatever creature crosses my path. (thankyou southpark)

WE ARE NOT ALL STEVE ERWIN PEOPLE!

Also to the surprise of many, our every second word is not "mate". Please, fell free to enlighten us on your own countries false generalizations, because I don't think Australia is the only country that suffers of this.

Mate, just play on it and she'll be right, eh? 'ave a beer.

lol

why not just get mad aboust something ridiculously insignifigant...

oh wait...

I'm from France. No need to say more.

The generalization that all Americans are fat irritates me. Because usually when people say it, they say it like it's a bad thing, for reasons other than the health of the overweight individual.

An I expect you don't even know that we happen to produce some partic'ly fine wines, our Chardonnays bein' 'specially worthy of attention and compet'tively priced, not to mention the rich, firmly structur'd Rusted Dunny Semillions which are a tangily refreshin discovery for the connesewer... yew bastard?

PS: The yanks only think we're all like Steve Irwin because the're all fat, stupid & ignorant. ;)

Yer... it is fair petty, it's just I had an American rally over and he kept on going on about how "unaustralian" I am because I don't do all this stuff. Then he tried to intruct me on how to be Australian and he was dead fucking serious telling me to say mate more often, even gave me an akoobra that he told me to wear...

C'est bien. :) Le francais cliché: J'aime des escargots et des des cuisses de grenouille. (en réalité, je n'ai pas goûté non plus :D)

Wow that's soft. I expected something more hard from an Australian, expecially after Mururoa.

Heh, the Americans are stupid and fat generalization pissed me off. My cousins from Zambia expected me to have McDonalds everyday after I had it once in front of em. ONCE!

You lie!

Actually, I was thinking more along the lines of Yahoo Serious. :D

I have a soft spot for Oz, though. I think it's how Texas would have been if Texas would have given the finger to the US and stayed its own Republic.

Oh ... and I'm Texan, born and raised ... let the stereotypes fly. (Though I do have a horse)

Heh, New Zealand probably got more of the fallout anyway. I study French and quite like the culture :)

Actually, we're mostly over that now. It's even relatively safe to drive a Citroen nowdays.

We're generally a fairly apathetic lot when it comes to politics. We just get a bit upset about people letting off thermo-nuclear devices in our metaporical backyard. :(

There was a Canadian, a Russian and an American. They all wanted to show off to each other so they each bought a toilet. The Russian bought a wooden toilet, the Canadian bought a marble toilet, and the American bought a musical toilet. The next day the Canadian came back to complain and said, "I want a refund. Every time I use the toilet, I slip off it." The day after that the Russian came to complain and said,"I want a refund. Every time I sit on the toilet I get splinters in my bottom."The next day, the American came and said, "I want a refund. Every time I sit down, I hear my national anthem and I have to stand up."

All generalizations are false. Yeah, that's it.

And thats why we Australians dig a hole in the garden and crap there.

EDIT- That was a.....ahh, nah, I won't spoil the fun. Oh, too late.

Actually, I'm American and I'm a huge fan of Yellow Tail wines. I drink Australian and Chilian wines excusively. Though I'm not impressed with Foster's. Except I heard Foster's is the Australian version of Budweiser. I'm sure you have much better beer that in not exported.

I'd rather drink methylated spirits than Fosters.

I have friend from Ireland who drinks nothing but Budweiser when he comes here. I'm sure sure you have Bud down under. What other American imports might you have? And what are considered the better Aussie beers? I've never been to Australia but when I do visit I want to know what to drink.

Never tried Bud, but it is available. Personally, I just stick to Australian and occasionally European beers. At the moment im drinking Carlton Cold, which is nice. I also drink Victoria Bitter, which is an acquired taste; you'll either love it or hate it. Though, for a somewhat more expensive beer, Crown Lager is top stuff. (I usually only get it around Christmas and New Years though ;))

That's amusing because it is true, the government has us trained pretty well.
