Just, FYI, Neal, the saying ' a dingo ate my baby' seemed to become a joke to a lot of Americans. The backstory of this is tragic. A family on a camping holiday, the baby asleep in the tent. The dingo did indeed snatch the baby and run away with it. Obviously for a meal. The mother was the one who shouted those words. Sadly, authorities did not believe her, and she ended up in jail for a period of time, till new evidence was found. Aussie cringe hard when hearing this said as a joke.
@@darrenhunt9049 Are you talking about "Country" or "Courtesy" or the thing I call my best mate every day..🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. No need to answer Darren I think we are both on the same page.👍
Remember, if you address someone as ‘sir’ in Australia, they will look behind themselves to see who the important person is. Aussies wouldn’t even address our Prime Minister as ‘Sir’.
Worked for years in pubs, clubs and food service industry, never called anyone Sir or Ma'am, it was always Squire for the blokes and Dahl or Duck - as in Duchess for the women, never had a complaint... 🙃🐨🇦🇺
Hi Neal I watch all her vids cos she always give good info for visitors here she’s quite informative and does good research,and she is correct we Aussies will talk to anyone and help them as much as possible because there’s nothing worse than being somewhere new and not have a clue what to do or where to go so learn all you can if you’re coming here and what you can’t we will help anytime🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
People do give their state or worse online they use an abbreviation of their state like CO, we have no hope of knowing what that is. I do know Cali is California but we also have a Cali beach here that it could be. So no abbreviations. Over here there tends to be a lot more chit chat between customer and server than I believe happens over in the States. I know even regular Americans have been tripped up by that. And of course you don't need to tip, the staff are probably making about $23+ an hour. Majority of Aussies are not trying to be offensive if they ask political questions. I think because most of us don't give a toss about politics unless its close to an election we may ask stuff with out even thinking its political or we expect that the American will be as chill about it as we are.
It's also that we can respect each others opinions and remain friends with people who vote for parties we don't like. it seems to me that USA's politics is more like a religious war than a respectful conversation between friends which is sad.
Yep Australians do like to travel, I think it’s because we are so far away from everywhere FOMO maybe 🤷🏽♀️ so you might as well make the most of when you are outside of the country - also helps when you can get a decent amount of holidays as well. That reminds me I really gotta get back to Japan, I’m sure it’s missing me 😅
Yes, she is right. Politics is not a big sticking point here, so we tend to think it is the same for other nationalities. But we are very curious about America, we get most news from there after our own, so we like to hear from a sensible person what they think and how they feel about issues.
I know the fish and chip place in Hobart she went to and I totally agree, its amazing and every time I'm there I gotta get me a scallop pie 😛 delicious
Yeah, Philadelphia is a brand of cheese here lol. People ask those questions because politics is irrelevant to people, I have known some people for a couple of decades here and have no idea or interest in what political party they support, it is a topic that is totally meaningless to the majority of people in Oz. If people ask Americans those sorts of questions it is from a standpoint of simple curiosity, not a standpoint of caring what politics or political party they are interested in or support.
Maybe the topic of politics isn't discussed much in ur circles but it certainly is in mine. Point of difference is that it seems in the US if u have a diff opinion ur mortal enemies, here it's a lively debate or just "OK, whatevs, we don't gotta agree on e'thing" & the talk moves on.
the term "Drop Bear" is from the Koalas but don't get it twisted, if you see one in the wild especially a baby, they will attack you haha and the name came from them known to drop on people protecting their babies lol those things can be vicious lol. only pat the ones in zoo's lol
New subscriber here. I’ve watched 4 vids. All spot on. Especially the gun control one. Dude, you are a pleasure to watch and react. You always look up when impressed. 😊😂 yes. There’s LOADS to be impressed about. 🤘😎
loving your videos brother :) i would love to do a video chat with you & have a chat about our countries and their differences. ive been to over 200 cities in Australia so would love to explain alot of the differences in this country. i don't think people realise just how big it is. Australia is not much smaller then the US. from where i live approx 1.5hrs drive WEST OF Brisbane, i can go to over a dozen different countries QUICKER then it takes to go to Western Australia (the other side of aus) NZ included and thats very south from me lol.
I’m political, I love a good argument. Doesn’t mean I’m angry if you don’t agree lol if you’re easily offended by different opinions or arguments, I’m not the person to speak to lol
Assies: A lot of us take a year off from school before college and travel the world. Americans: You get to go to college? Also Americans: You get to go to travel?
I think its that there isnt really much thats not on the table for discussion as we're pretty open and honest and we sorta assume its the same everywhere and that you know we dont mean to be rude, just interested.
Many Americans don't know their states. Lol. I've met some damn rude Aussies. Yep, as a Kiwi, I met a kiwi in Aussie, he was a jerk, everything was better in NZ...in the end I suggested he should go back to NZ. When I travel, the first thing I do, is get the hell out of the city.....To the bush....hi-ho Tra lala la. CrankyGranny Western Australia
Philadelphia is in the state of Pennsylvania on the east coast of America where the Liberty Bell is, not that far from New York city. When we visited ( we are Aussie) we went and checked out the Liberty Bell and Benjamin Franklin's grave. Fascinating and quite moving actually.
Give Aussies some credit..we have heard of Oklahoma...but Americans wouldn't have a clue where Parramatta is .. most things you say are off..please don't believe everything thing one of your fellow Americans puts on social media..
pff, talked to an Australian a while ago, was bewilderd to find out Austalia is a continent and not a country... Guessing Autralians like saying that they life on a continent.
@@jacinta4812 hahahaha, America isn´t a country. Maybe learn that first... The country is United States of America. And guess a Kiwi is an Aussie now, have to warn my family over there that they are Aussies now.
I feel she is SO WRONG! We are not unworldly idiots - if you say a joint I’m gonna @ least have heard of it. I follow her have for ages - but I take eBay she says with a grain of salt. If you were to come on over - watch an Australian to give you the skinny not an American living here..
Yet, she's speaking from her experience. So many of us may know a lot of American places, as with many other countries, but it seems that many of the people she has met don't.
@@Bellas1717 She is in Sydney, some people in SYdney its debatable if they know what is outside the Sydney Metro area where they consider Penrith as another country haha
@@marcus1979oz I live in Sydney. I haven’t met people like that, but I think a lot of Australians just aren’t interested in America the way some of us are.
27,000 approximately. I tell Seppos, do you want Venice beach shit, stay in Sydney, if you want NY beaches go to Melbourne, if you want Miami go to the Gold Coast . If you are a muppet go to Byron but keep your ass out of the Ballina water if you can't surf
We ask these questions about gun laws and roe v wade because I think we can’t understand your lives living under oppression and I know you Americans will lose your minds over the word oppression although whether you believe it or not you are

Neal, as Aussies, we'll find a way to offend you. Your reaction to that will tell us everything we need to know about you. 🥰

As a rule of thumb, NEVER be rude or obnoxious to the people preparing your food and drinks. They WILL get you back and you will never know.
Remember, if you address someone as ‘sir’ in Australia, they will look behind themselves to see who the important person is.
Aussies wouldn’t even address our Prime Minister as ‘Sir’.
Sir or ma’am . Lol yep you’re 100% lol

One of my friends has been to over 100 countries, so she definitely qualifies. Me? Only 2 -- England and Ireland.
Your friend is still a cynt, doesnt matter which country she visited.
In my younger years I worked alongside with the US Military so I have a fairly good clue on where you're from by accent.
Australia and America are the same size:)
Funny thing is, I AM from Parramatta 😄 (currently anyway)
Very sorry for you

As an American, I don’t want to come off as obnoxious so I leave my Hawaiian shirts at home when I travel overseas
Hahahaha.....I've seen so many! Good idea matey!!
We easily offend people from other countries without meaning to.
Americans: These ARE our manners!
Assies: Stop comparing everything to the US!
Tourist: This is a lot better than in the US.
Assies: Stop com... actually that is fine.
