Hey, Racer had a post that was actually interesting!!!  Rock on my brother.

I wonder how many other countries are getting alerts like these?

I wonder if this may change Soulgrind\'s mind on a few things?

I\'m sorry if you thought I was being sarcastic.  I was being serious. I hadn\'t heard about Australia going into high alert.  That\'s interesting.  

By the way, how many Arhabs can you take out with a boomerang?

Don\'t give me that sterotypical Aussie crap, how the hell should I know.

I have never used or touched a boomerang in my entire life, so ask an Aboriginal or something.

ASF reckon there may be a chemical weapon used at this year CHOGM meeting to be held in Oct.

Scary stuff I reckon.

Well, I\'d think the boomerang thing was the beginning of a joke. ;)

I know, I am just very anti sterotypical Aussie stuff I suppose. It just annoys me how the rest of the world thinks we live in tents and eat vegimite and drink beer all day while watching cricket.

I hate Vegimite
I hate Cricket
And I hate Australian beer, I only like Budwieser > go the yanks ;)

But the boomerang thing was kinda funny.

If someone believes you live in tents they should be shot. :laughing:

Just tell them to watch The Matrix or Mission: Impossible 2, both of which were shot in Australia.

(BTW They are hard to get to work right... well it was for me, as a kid)

I thought The Matrix was shot in Chicago when I first saw it, untill someone told me the whole thing was filmed in Sydney.

Things you learn from friends...

Australian people seem to have a very big problem with stereotypes.  

I think we all know that it is a modern country.  Not all people live like the Aborigineeze.  I know I bastardized that word, but I can\'t spell it.

Get over it people!!!

And Budweiser is piss water.

"That dingo ate my baby!!!!!"

Even saying "Australian" people have a problem with stereotypes is stereotyping.   A LOT of people have problems with that.  

[stereotype USA on]

How\'s the bronx goin.. Must be hard living in a gangsters paradise. Havin G\'s goin after you all the time.. Living in run down old apartment buildings with bullet holes everywhere. Must suck!!

Soul, you really tend to miss a lot of points.

I was just saying that I can\'t even make a joke about a boomerang without everyone jumping on me.   Like I really think you guys live in huts and chase wild boars for food.  Give me a break.

Don\'t worry I will not make any more comments in any way about anything Australian because you guys obviously have absolutely no sense of humor.

Thank God there is always Canada.

I for one think that Australia is really over-stereotyped.   It drives me crazy.  It seems like so many Australian and American corporations are just driving this bullsh1t down our throats. Trying to convice consumers that everyone in Australia lives in the desert and wrestles crocidiles, and drives a Land Rover, and trips over Kangaroos, etc etc.  It\'s just a damn insult to americans AND australians!  I even liked it better back in the early eighties when the only things the typical dumbass american knew about Australia came from "The Road Warrior."  Now it\'s just a marketing concept for corporate america.

He is an utter wanker... He is an embarrasment to all Australians.

Yes, I agree that Australia\'s sterotyping is one big marketing campaign, but Australia can not advance when these things linger in the background... Who would trust a country with Chemical Weapons (ie nuclear plant in Queensland) when the rest of the world thinks we are all drunk and hunt crocs...

Anyways, back on topic, gas masks in Oz have been flying out of the stores...

Nice to see the same ignorance found in North America is also alive and well down-under. :(


Steve Irwin is my hero. Seriously, I love that guy.

I don\'t characterize Australia with the Croc Hunter or Paul Hogan, I characterize them as one of the most incredible sporting nations on Earth - you lot have such a small population and yet you\'re bloody good at almost EVERY sport you play - basketball, cricket, soccer, track and field, swimming, rugby. Bastards, I hate the lot of you ! ;)

At least you still suck at Ice Hockey....for now.
