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.
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
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.

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!

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".

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.
