    Well DUH! Of course! We love our alcohol to no end.

    Im glad to hear that SOMEONE had a chuckle about the OP. This was the intention. Just a bit of friendly 'banter' so to speak :)

    WELL-

    I don't like my country, I don't really like beer all that much, I don't like sports, I don't own a TV, and out of those comedians, I've only heard of Carrey and Akroyd, both of whom I knew were Canadians.

    But I'll agree with the Aussies that none of this matters after a few drinks. If your entire country is indeed composed of alcoholics. :p

    Really funny, just a few comments:
    Brits: Pay a tax just so they can watch 4 channels. Dr. Who

    Aussies: Export all their crappy programs, which no one there watches, to Britain, where everybody loves them. Power Rangers and all that other kids shows


    Americans: Will jabber on incessantly about "football", baseball and basketball.
    Brits: Will jabber on incessantly about cricket, football and rugby.
    Aussies: Will jabber on incessantly about how they beat the Poms in every sport they played them in. You guys only play rugby

    Hahaha, thought that was pretty spot on!

    Although.... I have to dispute: Brits: Pay a tax just so they can watch 4 channels.


    While yes, it's true...we actually are only paying for 2 of those (and there's 5 in total)...and on those two there are no commercials....no breaks in films...which I didn't appreciate at all until I moved to the US and it takes 3.5 hours to watch a half hour show on TV.


    Also, Sky rocks.

    Every time you say mate I keep thinking that your coming on to me

    Bub = Bitch under boy seemed fitting. lol jk


    I've always known 'bub' to be a term of endearment, similar to 'honey' or 'babe'... I know quite a few people (in Australia) that call their significant others bub so to me it looked like you were doing the 'coming on to'.

    I liked the post and yes Australia is full of alcoholics, except me. I have one drink and my arms feel heavy and I'm ready to go to sleep. Such a weakling I am.

    I never understood the concept of Paying to watch commercials.

    Hence why I proudly pirate all of my tv shows.

    Well this has just become on gigantic spam fest...

    If you're going to post a gif, how about at least some text, eh?

    Eh. Wasn't all that funny but I didn't find it offensive to any one nationality (seemed pretty even-spread to me).

    PS: Is power rangers even an Australian show? I thought it was American...


    At least the original Power Rangers was Japanese, with any bits where you could see people's actual faces being American-filmed filler to explain the action scenes.

    Rugby Union
    Rugby League
    Soccer (football) (dont think we actually win in this seeing as the English take their football more seriously then they took WWI and WWII)
    Cricket
    Tennis (not sure how we go in that, tennis is shit anyway)

    So we dont just play rugby, we do play other sports too.


    PS: Is power rangers even an Australian show? I thought it was American...


    I was under the impression that the english versions were filmed in australia, my bad I guess

    As for the sports, you suck at football, not bad at tennis, and no one cares about cricket. So yeah, rugby.

    Aussies: Dislike being mistaken for Pommies (Brits) when abroad.
    Brits: Can't possibly be mistaken for anyone else when abroad.<br style="color: rgb(28, 40, 55); font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; background-color: rgb(250, 251, 252); ">

    Americans: Drink weak, pissy-tasting beer
    Canadians: Drink strong, pissy-tasting beer
    Brits: Drink warm, beery-tasting piss.
    Aussies: Drink anything with alcohol in it.

    Haha I love those xD Honestly, after living in Germany for a while, I agree with both :/

    That is not true - they're at least equal!


    Nah, it's true for 90% of England.
