Torsten Posted November 13, 2002 yeah, that's funny. But not as funny as it is in europe, as most europeans don't know that most boomerangs do not come back anyway. Real hunting boomerangs do not return! Only the playing boomerangs and the tourist ones do. Most aussies probably know this, but europeans usually don't.

deaders Posted November 13, 2002 actually most americans wouldnt even know what a boomerang is... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Auxin Posted November 13, 2002 Actually most americans do. Ive personally met tens of thousands of americans (and I am one) and I have not heard very many people say 'boomer-what?' American toy companies make them and Hollywood makes lots of fictional movies about australia. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squiresk Posted November 13, 2002 My personal favourite Aussie joke ponders the fact that even the most debilitated bacteria may form a culture after 200 years. Sorry, kai. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest mandragora Posted November 14, 2002 I have not really a joke, but as I met my boyfriend, an Australian, I have asked him what the fuck they learn in history. 200 Years are done in one week. When you see the European part of Australia. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

John_Barleycorn Posted November 14, 2002 Can't resist taking a pot-shot at my own culture. Q: why do Aussie blokes tend to suffer from premature ejaculation? A: they can't wait to get down the pub and tell their mates what they've been doing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
