Australia

Thanks. Lovely Lady.

I'm just hoping he keeps posting here so I don't have to keep bumping this thread myself to get past the Neo-nacho and Coconut denier threads.

It's much more efficient and incredibly amusing if I can suck him into doing my work for me.

What a dittomincer.

My pleasure. I haven't anything I can contribute to this thread, but I have been lurking and taking notes for the next time I manage to get back out to that part of the world.
 
Why am I suspecting that I'll be killed by dropbear assassins if I don't desist in posting in threads I have not much clue about?
Seriously, I have less knowledge about Australia than I have about Southeast Asia or Latin America. And that isn't that much. I think the most memorable thing I know is that you can happen to stumble across pretty big red kangaroos when you take a leak. Happened to my old physics teacher back when he was young. ;)
 
All are welcome here Mate, except for neo-Nachos and Coconut deniers.

Please stay, and we'll teach you some really useful stuff a few new jokes.

Also, I have some talent at turning almost any post into something about Oz, so don't be afraid of the Dread Hammer of OT™

Drop bear references are always welcome!

Welcome aboard,

'tis a trip

Did this come up already in this thread? I wonder where I came upon that, must have been somewhere on the net with Australians. The kransky sisters reminded me of that by way of association.
 
That's brilliant! Thank you.

Can I ask you to post it again in this thread


The other Professors of Yowology (don't ask:)) will absolutely love that.

If you just post it, I'll add an explanation afterwards.

Thanks again. I really enjoyed that.

We seem to spend a lot of time telling visitors that kangaroos are not really in everyone's backyard, but there really are a mob in mine right now, and I'm only 30kms from the centre of the city.
 
I believe.

They had to clear the buggers out of the Married Quarters up at Pucka because they were starting to get aggressive. The drought forced them into 'town' because there was no grass left out on the range.

They seem to think humans are competition for some reason, and actually had a go at a few people. There's still millions of them, but they moved the big boomers that were causing the trouble. I'll bet the folks in Avenel were real happy about that.

How do Australians feel about your country being started as a penal colony?

Imagine a loving parent stealing a loaf of bread to stop the family starving. They then getting transported to paradise.
Lots of loving people in paradise. Sounds awful don't it?

So, in other words this is still a sensitive topic.

But, Australia is not known for having a crime problem.

Hardly sensitive. I think our Egyptian-Australian forgot his smiley.
We are generally unruffable and uninsultable - especially by foreign dittomunchers who don't know kerpoofletoufles from croc mince.

I assume getting kicked by a kangaroo can really ruin your day?

Fathers day especially.
That is where the word "balltearer" originated.:)

Go a bit further north (you know, a whole continent) and take on a Cassowary. They can disembowel a dog in one swipe. I am running short of time right now (work) - I might post some stuff on them later today unless Akhenaten feels the desire in the meantime.

My mate Johnno from Melbourne wanted a new car, so he went to the used car dealer and said "I want a Pord."

"A what?"

"A Pord. I want you to sell me a Pord Palcon."

"Oh, you mean a Ford?"

"Yeah, and make sure it's past! I really want to be able to put my poot down."

The salesman duly sold him a good fast Ford Falcon. He was so pleased that he went to his sister, and said "Hey Piona! Check out my new Pord. It's really past! Wanna come for a drive?"

"You getcha!" she replied.

So Johnno and his sister Fiona went out for a really long drive in the Victorian countryside. After a couple of hours they saw a digger in his slouch hat, hitchhiking by the side of the road, so they pulled over.

As he got in, the soldier asked "Ya going to Pucka?"

Johnno replied "Don't be stupid, she's me bloody sister!"
 
Do they make two-fer packages for airlines and such not?


Do you reckon Hokulele would pass as a school kid if you dressed her up right?

That would save some $$, although I suppose it might cause some disturbance on the flight.

Maybe you could come by ship, and you can throw a rope over the stern so the lass can surf along behind. You'd have to remember to throw her some food and drinkies from time to time though.
