Thread: The American Facetious Diplomatic Relations poll: Australia

    Re: The American Facetious Diplomatic Relations poll: Australia

    Their women have the sexiest accent on the planet. I know we have several female Aussie posters so out of respect and fear I won’t go into details but hot damn.


    The downside is that according to Belfast born writer Adrian Mckinty you can’t get a decent cup of coffee quick. Something about them insisting on brewing each cup of coffee fresh causing massive weight times at Starbucks. He said that even coffee machines are frowned upon.

    On the upside according to Mckinty again there is no real difference between the political parties which makes it boring but speaking as an American I prefer boring to all the drama, suspense, intrigue and general gridlock we have over here.

    Speaking of Australia what the fuck is up with your taxes and censorship? You people pay a million dollars for a video game that has to be censored and toned down before you can buy it.

    So I'm the only one that has voted to head butt them. Only on three hours of sleep working the night shift having been up for twenty hours would I make that mistake. Picking a fight with an Aussie, is like sucide by cop only much messier.

    Australia's finally getting around to creating an R rating classification for certain games, so that won't be an issue much longer.

    Our Taxes are livable. I'd like lower, but as I've mentioned elsewhere, we're a big country geographically with a small population, so infrastructure for everything costs more per mile than it would in the US.

    I'm not sure that's the case. Most countries are far more efficient than us in allocating their resources so we usually spend much more per capita with much less to show for it.

    OZ, KJ that still doesn't change the fact that the guy in Waltzing Matilda wanted to do dirty deeds with sheep. Which I've noticed you've rather glazed over in your posts....

    Just admit you've been calling the Kiwis a bunch of sheep shaggers to cover up your own insecurities. Like how we call Canada out for moose fraternization.

    If by "dirty deeds" you mean cook that jumpbuck in a probably unwashed billy, then yes, damn that hungry homeless man, damn him to HECK! Now what's this I hear about Moose Fraternization?

    The only thing I remember from the Olympic Games in Australia was watching The Dream with Roy and HG every night. I'll never view mens gymnastics, swimming, water polo, archery or fencing the same way again! Oh, and Cathy Freeman proving that sometimes, fairy tails do come true.

    And it's VERY rare to find an Aussie who knows the second verse of our national anthem.

    There are many anthems like that, though. Some people just can't stop themselves from overachieving.

    Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong
    Under the shade of a coolibah tree,
    And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled:
    "You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me."

    Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
    You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me
    And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled:
    "You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me."

    Down came a jumbuck to drink at that billabong.
    Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee.
    And he sang as he shoved that jumbuck in his tucker bag:
    "You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me."

    Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
    "You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me",
    And he sang as he shoved that jumbuck in his tucker bag:
    "You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me."

    Up rode the squatter, mounted on his thoroughbred.
    Down came the troopers, one, two, three.
    "Whose that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker bag?
    You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me."

    Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
    "You'll come a-Waltzing Matilda, with me"
    "Whose that jolly jumbuck you've got in your tucker bag?
    You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me."

    Up jumped the swagman and sprang into the billabong.
    "You'll never catch me alive", said he.
    And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong:
    "You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me."

    Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda
    "You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me"
    And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong:
    "You'll come a-waltzing Matilda, with me."

    I don't see any sheep-screwing there?
