But I have been reading posts in this topic and I would like to say that I am proud that the rest of the world understands us Ossies (pronounced: Oh-seas - well I think that's how you all pronounce it anyways).
Being that the "World Series" is played between the NL and AL I did not realise that the Yanks knew there was another country/continent out there beyond the blue water.
Yes we are all convicts. I am, my dad is, his dad is and so on... hell I only just got off the boat (Friendship) yesterday. Was away on parole, however I later found that ripping a cd in England was illegal (damn, second time I fell for that!)
Anyways just to clear things up. * We do not fuck sheep, people who do that are called New Zealanders. * No, New Zealand is not in or a part of Australia (even though we do have more of them here than New Zealand does. * We are not an American Sheriff even though Johnny thinks we are. * We only enter every war we can legitimately enter because we like to fight and we are the best at it (ask the Americans, Germans, Vietnamese...) * Kangaroos do live on the city street however the government is putting in place laws that allow police to move them on (wait for the protesting roos on a news channel near you!) * We are actually clever enough to work out that there is a difference between the metric and imperial measurements (we may be on the other side of the world but even we have GOOGLE! - http://www.google.com.au/search?hl=en&q=1+meter+in +yard&meta= ) Besides at least we make sense by "choosing" one standard!! Put it this way we would say "Yo, Yo, WAZZZUP Gee, Me had ta walk a whole mile to da store to shoot da nigger wid me 9mm - WTF) * We do not allow anyone into this country unless they have killed someone or at least been convicted for stealing some bread. * We actually admit that some of our stars are crap (Ie. Kylie Minogue - we had to send her back to the mother land - and they were stupid enough to make her a star!) we do not just shrug our shoulder and fool the world that some stars who are crap are actually good (Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson to just name a small fraction of the tip of the ice burg)
Any other Questions please leave them with an American they seem to know more about us OHSEAS than we do.
