Australia – the Land Down Under, ‘Stralia, God’s Country – home of Vegemite and Shane Warne and kangaroos and some of the hottest sheilas this side of the equator.
Having spent two years working and travelling around the country I can confirm that the Aussies are a breed unlike any other. The exploits of their agricultural minister Barnaby Joyce, the man who can’t wait to slay Johnny Depp’s dogs, are another example of how they tend to have their own style.
They love a bit of banter, so with that in mind let’s have a laugh at their expense.
1) Ozzies love a good ‘ol swear, and here’s former Prime Minister Kevin Rudd going off on one.
2) Everyone loves showing off a bit of skin, whether or not it’s appropriate.
3) Feel like busting out some Taylor Swift during an important Senate hearing? Good on ya maaaaaate.’
4) Despite overwhelming evidence of having acted like a knob they will stick to their guns. Case in point is Corey Worthington.
5) Train rides home can turn into something of a jol. I’d like to see this guy get a party going on the 4:45PM train from Woodstock to Claremont. Also note the depressing lack of stickers for anyone offering instant penis enlargement, lotto wins or winning back a former lover.
There you have it, five reasons why those folks Down Under are a breed unto themselves. For any Aussie readers out there please recognise the amount of self-control it took to steer clear of making any sheep jokes. Seeing as though so many of our cititzens are fleeing to your shores we want to make sure we don’t put them in a baaaaaaad position.
