Part 3 of the series that makes fun of English speaking countries that aren't the US

First the good:

1) Gave us ACDC, Men at Work, and Wilfred
2) Almost 2/3rds of a day ahead of us, can see into the future!
3) They found Nemo there

what to make fun of:

Rupert Murdoch

Toilets flush the wrong direction

Winter is summer, summer is winter

Started as a prison colony (well not including the aborigines)

Talk funnier than Canadians and the Brits (but not the Scots)

Lots of evolutionary weirdness like marsupials, large flightless birds and tiny killer jellyfish

Large country but mostly worthless desert

It's an island (SLAP!) it's a continent (SLAP!) it's an island (SLAP!) it's a continent (SLAP!)- it's an island AND a continent!!

WTF is vegemite?!

didgeridoo may be the weirdest instrument ever invented

Koalas are cute but have nasty claws

WTF is quandong?!

Too much sh*t that can kill you for my liking

Treatment of indigenous population (can open, worms everywhere!)

I had a friend in high school who was an aussie, her dad was in the navy and working in the US for some reason. She had some weird phrases she would use like that all the time

I would have added it but the lead singer offed himself during an autoerotic asphixiation session
