From Australia. Know that we dont have all the flashing lights and chyrons all over the news. But we are about 10 years behind you guys. So we dont all have ADHD yet and can just listen to someone talk without all the flashing lights and production value! And everyone can't be like the most awesome Tucker Carlson!

All jokes aside though... Sky news is seen as the Fox News of Australia. It is dismissed easily by the lefty folks. And probably the reason we dont have so much production value in our shows is that we only have less than 10% of you folks to target. The more minds that can be changed the more money its worth to change them.

Get out there and vote pedes! Trump isn't technically my President but I wish he was!

I played WoW with a bunch of aussies, so this made me laugh really hard. Also, they called me a merkin in chat and I'm like, "the hell is that?" and they said, "Say it out loud." I don't think I've ever laughed so hard over a chat in my life.

We also use the word "cunt" way more liberally in our day to day life.

Its still the most offensive word available but Id call my mate a cunt at least once a week!

Yep, if you're in the pub (bar) and someone angry says "You wanna go, mate?", they probably want to fight. Whereas you see your mates and go "wanna beer, cunts?" :D

In Boston's Irish pubs the real Irishmen threw that word at each other constantly. In that milieu the "C word" is a term of endearment.

A great compliment for Aussies is to call your friend a "sick cunt".

They'd use it constantly in teamspeak but would always apologize if they said it toward me. Every time I'd say I didn't care. But the next time it happened, they would still apologize. Just a really great group of guys.

Edit: I identify as female, although my uterus identifies as a mack truck.

This is the one thing that endeared me to Aussies more than anything, but y'all cunts are awesome and I love you for life.

Just realised that is Sharri Markson. She writes some great articles.

Doesn't hurt that she's aggressively attractive. :)
