Just so you all understand !!!

You know you're an Aussie if..........



* You believe that stubbies can be either drunk or worn.



* You think it was normal to have a leader called Kevin.





* You've made a bong out of your garden hose rather than use it for something illegal,



such as watering the garden.





* You're liable to burst out laughing whenever you hear of Americans "rooting" for something.





* You understand that the phrase 'a group of women wearing black thongs' refers to footwear and may be less alluring than it sounds.





* You pronounce Melbourne as 'Mel-bin'.

You believe the 'l' in the word 'Australia' is optional.









* You believe it makes perfect sense for a nation to decorate its highways with large fibreglass bananas, prawns and sheep.





* You call your best friend 'a total b@stard' but someone you really, truly despise is 'a bit of a b@stard'.





* You think 'Yackandandah' is a perfectly reasonable name for a place.





* You're secretly proud of our killer wildlife.





* You believe it makes sense for a country to have a $1 coin that's twice as big as its $2 coin.





* You instinctively understand that 'Wagga Wagga' can be abbreviated to 'Wagga'



but that 'Woy Woy' can't ever be called 'Woy'.





* You believe that salty Yeast Extract makes a good breakfast spread.. You've also squeezed it through Vita Wheats to make little Vegemite worms..





* You believe all famous Kiwis are actually Australian, until they stuff up,



at which point they again become Kiwis.





* You expect beetroot with your Hamburger... Of course!

* You know that certain words must, by law, be shouted out during any



rendition of the Angels' song 'Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again', and "Living next door to Alice".





* You believe that the confectionery known as the Wagon Wheel has become smaller with every passing year.





* You wear ugg boots outside the house.





* You believe that every important discovery in the world was made by an Australian, but then sold off for a pittance.





* You believe that the more you shorten someone's name the more you like them.





* Whatever your linguistic skills, you find yourself able to order takeaway fluently in every Asian language.





* You understand that 'excuse me' can sound rude,
While 'scuse me' is always polite.





* You know what it's like to swallow a fly, on occasion via your nose.





* You know it's not summer until the steering wheel is too hot to handle and a seat belt buckle becomes a pretty good branding iron.



* Your biggest family argument over the summer concerned the rules of beach cricket.



* You shake your head in horror when companies try to market what they call 'Anzac cookies'.



* You still think of Kylie as 'that girl off Neighbours'.



* When working at a bar, you understand that

male customers will feel the need to offer an excuse whenever they order low-alcohol beer.



* You know how to abbreviate every word, all of which usually end in ''-o'':



arvo, combo, garbo, kero, lezzo, metho, milko, muso, rego, servo, smoko, speedo, righto, goodo etc.



* You know that there is a universal place called "woop woop" located in the middle of nowhere...no matter where you actually are.



* You know that none of us actually drink Fosters beer, because it tastes like *****. But we let the world think we do. Because we can.



* You have some time in your life slept with Aeroguard on in the summer. Maybe even as perfume.



* You've only ever used the words - tops, ripper, sick, mad, rad, sweet

- to mean good. And then you place 'bloody' in front of it when you REALLY mean it.



* You know that the barbecue is a political arena; the person holding the tongs is always the boss and usually a man.

And the women make the Salad.



* You say 'no worries' quite often, whether you realise it or not.



* You understand what no wucking furries means.



* You've drank your tea/coffee/milo through a Tim Tam.



* You own a Bond's chesty. In several different colours.



* You know that roo meat tastes pretty good, But not as good as barra. Or a meat pie.



* You know that some people pronounce
Australia like "Straya" and that's ok.
