Yanks love Aussies for what they percieve as being bad ..., happy go lucky, always up for a party, good time blokes.
That kid is ....... legend here. Look at the comments.
Your on a one man PR campaign to paint aussies as a bunch of sullen .....
Go eat a vegamite sandwich and find your inner Aussie
Well if what you say is true then that says more about the US than Australia as in Australia yes we like to party but not many will party in a manner that impacts a lot of people negatively (as Corey did) as most Aussies actually give a toss about others
The kid in Australia was considered a total ........ and was ridiculed by old, you and middle aged alike for the stupidity of his actions ..............
If that paints Aussies as 'sullen .....' to use your words well so be it but given that I suspect I know a few more Aussies than you and know a little more of the culture (if not the vagaries of our real estate market where I gladly cede to you on that matter) then I will take my view of Aussies over yours if I may.
As for finding my inner Aussie, well given you seem to know so much of the Aussie culture I will gladly accept all/any advise you wish to offer on that aspect ............. and FWIW, vegemite is for breakfast not lunch as for lunch we have various burgers
