No, I am annoyed at the stereotypes implied by the word ‘Aussie’. The whole ‘Australian slang’ that has developed here is very telling of the culture were have harbored over the last 200 years…

Fair enough, stereotypes irritate me too. I still consider myself an "Aussie", even though I couldn't be smurfed with half of the crap other people here go on about.

Pretty sure that's John Coward.
:joey:
yes, i agree with having the worst people represent us (im new zealand born, but an australian resident for like... my whole life).
there aint no gallon blue caned fosters beer.
almost no-one lives in the "outback."
we have plausible up to date technology.
you never see a kangaroo (im not joking man, seriously).
koalas the same....
the only thing not worth likeing about "classic" australians is that there racist against any human not white.
well, i donno if thats true, but i think there are some that are racist.
oh yeah, alsoooooo i wanna punch the croc hunter a couple of times or so.
That's a bit harsh on Australians. I see my fair share of kangaroo's and koala's and we do have Fosters beer - except no one drinks it. Sure, there are racist people in every country, but not that much that we 'hate' everyones who's not white - where on earth did you get that? People DO live in the outback. I agree that most people don't, but people do.
You've obviously never seen Crocodile Dundee. I don't think Mick was racist, for some reason.
