rpd’s top 5 what makes Straylia, Ausstrayleia;
1. Every Australian pronounces Ausstryyyyeliaaaae differently
2. Everything needs to come with Beetroot on or in it
3. Sporting a mullet & a wife beater top has not gone out of fashion and here I don’t think it ever will!!
4. Everything needs to be in the shape of Auestrealeigha or have an Australian flag on it – you can buy a burger in the supermarket which is the same shape as Ausrailiadha (minus Tasmania!!)
5. Shoro words and addo an ‘o’ at the end, sorry shortening words and adding an ‘o’ at the end. Reno = Renovations, Afternoon = Avo, Bottle Shop = Bottlo & Julia Gillard = fucko
