    Default Just for a laugh

    Being Australian is about driving in a German car to an Irish pub for A Belgian beer, then on the way home, grabbing an Indian curry or A Turkish kebab, to sit on Swedish furniture and watch American shows on a Japanese TV.

    Oh and...... Only in Australia ... can a pizza get to your house faster
    than an ambulance.

    Only in Australia ... do supermarkets make sick people walk all the way to the back of the shop to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front.

    Only in Australia ... do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries and a DIET coke. Only in Australia ... do banks leave both doors open and chain the pens to the counters. Only in Australia ... do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the
    driveway and lock our junk and cheap lawn mower in the garage.

    NOT TO MENTION...

    3 Aussies die each year testing if a 9v battery works on their tongue.

    58 Aussies are injured each year by using sharp knives instead of screwdrivers.

    31 Aussies have died since 1996 by watering their Christmas tree while the fairy lights were plugged in.

    8 Aussies had serious burns in 2000 trying on a new jumper with a lit cigarette in their mouth.

    A massive 543 Aussies were admitted to Emergency in the last two years after opening bottles of beer with their teeth.

    and finally..... ....

    In 2000 eight Aussies cracked their skull whilst throwing up into the toilet.

    YOU SHOULD BE PROUD TO BE AUSTRALIAN!

    Standing up to the test while you're wearing a party dress,
    Looks can be decieving while you're quietly over achieving,
    sometimes it takes balls to be a woman.

    That one is distinctly American though. They sell everything in their supermarkets - even guns and bullets.....and they have their banks in there too

    But I agree, this one is American, not Australian.
