eisanbt Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Accually I'd have to say that of the many tourists I have to deal with (Tourist based economy in the summer here) The Aussies are definatly the nicest, not nearly as drunk as one would expect though...disaapointing. (We have several breweries in this small city, drinking is mandated!) Quote http://www.boohbah.com/zone.html "It's a poor sort of memory that only works backwards" -Lewis Carroll
scout Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Enjoy your brief "ownership" Tex. At least you mob don't turn it into a court battle when we take them off you. Unlike the yanks for the America's cup in yachting. Our PM Bob Hawke gave the nation the day off for that one. [attach=full]804[/attach] Does the embarrassment ever end? Quote

Cogito Ergo Sum Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 I bet you know this Aussie too... [attach=full]805[/attach] Shut the fuck up. Olivia IS NOT Australian. Never was! " Olivia Newton-John is an English singer/actress who was born on September 26, 1948 in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, England. She lived there till she was 5 years old, and relocated to Australia with her parents after her father was offered a job as the Dean of a College in Melbourne. When she was a young teen, she returned to live in England, with her mother, after winning a singing talent contest. Olivia took the advice of a friend, and in the middle 1970s, left Britain to take up residence in America to help further her singing career." Quote . I put no stock in religion. By the word "religion" I have seen the lunacy of fanatics of every denomination be called the will of god. I have seen too much "religion" in the eyes of too many murderers. Holiness is in right action, and courage on behalf of those who cannot defend themselves, and goodness.

Well, the Shark, maybe, but we don't like him anyway. Oh, and Kimberly Davies, but if you check the lips on that one, she was made for sucking her way into a daytime soapy.

jokersarewild Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Nicole Kidman, Cate Blanchett, Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, Portia de Rossi...I think there's more than a few. Gotta give em' some credit. But notice how they are here...and not there? Quote RoyalOrleans is my real dad!
builder Posted February 10, 2006 Author Posted February 10, 2006 But notice how they are here...and not there? Another ridiculous assumption. Portia de Rossi is the only one that lives in USAistan. And she's a pussy muncher, so y'all can have her. Quote Persevere, it pisses people off.
RoyalOrleans Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 I like my Aussies doused in cayenne pepper and thrown on the barbie, mate. Quote To be the Man, you've got to beat the Man. - Ric Flair Everybody knows I'm known for dropping science.
jokersarewild Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Nicole Kidman is from USAistan, as you like to call it. And she didn't go to Aussieland of her own will. She was very small when forced there. Russell Crowe was born in New Zealand. Forced to Australia at 4. Went back to NZ at 14 and returned to Aussieland at 21. Cate Blanchett was actually born there...but her dad was a Texan that moved to there so we understand and pitty her. Eh, mate(said with southern drawl)? Quote RoyalOrleans is my real dad!
jokersarewild Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 And I like my Aussies doused in gasoline and brightly burning, m8. Quote RoyalOrleans is my real dad!
builder Posted February 10, 2006 Author Posted February 10, 2006 I like my Aussies doused in cayenne pepper and thrown on the barbie, mate. Reminds me of that opening scene in Terminator, where Arnie needs that biker's clothes bad enough to toss him on the hotplate. Quote Persevere, it pisses people off.

fullauto Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 For the most part I have a favorable opinion of Aussies! White, western, fiercly independant (just like most western nations)... They are smart and productive, and rise to the top at everything they do (just like most western nations)... The avoid fights whenever possible, but fight like the dickens when it's necessary (just like most western nations)... their people run the range from highly cultured, to oafish barbarians (just like most western nations)... I just wish they were more willing to stick up for their own people more... They shy a bit too much for my blood... Kinda whine alot... (just like most western nations) Quote Liberals...

manicmonday Posted February 12, 2006 Posted February 12, 2006 If all Aussie's looked like Keith Urban, I'd be moving down there.... oh right he's up here:) Quote The dick has no conscience and the heart has no rational abilities.
