What's Australia like?

[Dave A]

Don't I, I could have sworn I did , oh hang about, no your right, I live in Manchester. Now that's out of the way, what do they do that makes them a pest?

Billions of them. Ok maybe not that much, but near infestation levels.

 

[Jay]

They are the trucky's Roo bar targets.

If im going anywhere studying after I graduated, I'm SO going to Australia. Cause they got great waves and, according to Jack, really hot chicks. That's all I need.



..but mostly because of their accent...

 

[Cap'n Jack]

Why are they a pest? I've never heared of Kangaroo's being a pest before.

As far as I know, its a bit like foxes. Foxes will eat farmers chickens and whatnot, where as the kangaroos wil eat the crops.
I'm pretty sure thats the way it goes, excuse me if I'm wrong.

I'd say europeans have more hot chicks. Although foriegn accents always make chicks horny no matter where u go. I"m preety sure Austrlaia has the highest percentage of fat people in the world per capita...

 

[guska]

I'd say europeans have more hot chicks.

I think it is well known by now that I would 100% agree with this statement, although Australian women do have their charm.

 

[GT4_Rule]

Is it that hot there that my girlfriend passed out from heat every single time she visited Australia?

(that's three times to be precise.)

Edit: I thought it was US that had highest fat people/capita ratio...

Is it true that firearms are banned in australia?
Only handguns or rifles too?
Are there any mountains (mountains= hills bigger than 1000m) in Australia?
Whats the height of the Ayers Rock? 300 metres or more?
Whats the coldest natural place in Australia? (A fridge doesn't count!)
What about army? Do you have to serve in the army?

 

[Gen.]

]Is it true that firearms are banned in australia?
Yes. Better than having guns. (Except under hunting uses, and that's only rural areas, cities are no go.)

Only handguns or rifles too?
Anything that fires lethal bullets

Are there any mountains (mountains= hills bigger than 1000m) in Australia?
No clue, but probably Snowy Mountains

Whats the height of the Ayers Rock? 300 metres or more?
340 meters. Also, it's real name is Uluru.

Whats the coldest natural place in Australia? (A fridge doesn't count!)
Snowy Mountains. Yes. We do have snow.

What about army? Do you have to serve in the army?
What about the army? No, completely optional.

No neither are banned, but they are restricted, as of last year owned five handguns that I used regularly at a firearm club, I gave it up and all but one has been sold. (the one remains at a gun store)


Rifles are pretty easy to get as long as they are not semi or full automatic, obviously MdnIte never looked into it before.

Oh and BTW Tri I live in a city.

 

[sutton.a]

Australia i find is very anti-gun... well atleast where i live. Apart from hunting rifles we keep on my uncles farm which is way in the sticks up north, i don't know anyone that has a gun or any reason to need a gun. Even in the low-socia economic area's of brisbane where i live, a gun fatality is such a rare thing.

 

[miss_schu]

Is it true that Australian cities are real clean and that they are litter free?

I really thought that the Wallabies were going to win tonights rugby against the All Blacks, but alas, the All Blacks went away victorious

[sutton.a]

The NZ rugby squad is soo much more superiour atm.. i can't believe you thought aus would even put up a fight.

 

[Taurine]

I can't believe the Aussies reverted to dirty tactics when there is so much skill in their team.

 

[miss_schu]

They were leading at the start! And I thought, they gotta beat the AB's! But no, not today!

THERE ARE NO CITIES IN AUSTRALIA EXCEPT SYDNEY. AND MAYBE CANBERRA. AND MELBOURNE. THE REST IS DESERT.

 

[sutton.a]

Canberra may be our capital city, but i know the majority of australia would vote for either sydney or melbourne. Canberra was created cause australia couldn't decide.

Canberra..... Canberra!!!??? Adelaide has over three times the population of that little politician infested city!

 

[somebody]

Yes, but Canberra has Summernats. That counts for a lot.

 

[GT4_Rule]

I heard somewhere that there is no speed limit in the deserts. Is this true?

 

[Blake]

Read the earlier pages in this thread.

 

[Taurine]

I heard it was an Aussie ritual for a father to teach his young teenage boy to do burnouts in his HQ while he stands back in admiration with a can of beer in his hand.

Canberra is pointless, nothing goos comes out of there! Except tyre smoke.

Yes, but Canberra has Summernats. That counts for a lot.

Like I said, Canberra's ONLY redeeming point, would be better in Adelaide though, would make less of a drive for the Westerners

I heard somewhere that there is no speed limit in the deserts. Is this true?

Yes, but only in NT

I heard it was an Aussie ritual for a father to teach his young teenage boy to do burnouts in his HQ while he stands back in admiration with a can of beer in his hand.

For some, yes, for most, however, the father will yell at the kid for thrashing his car, then do the same thing at a mates place...

That is correct, you don't pass until you have blown a diff or sheared an axle.

Then you must repair it and still while stinking of 20-30 year old gear oil you must do ringys in a paddock until you rooster up enough dust to cover the neighboring suburbs (Or get a rock fly through you're floorpan).

 

[Taurine]

I recall hearing that Brisbane has the highest airport tax in the country ... or is it another airport?
