Australians are stupid

[iJohnHenry]

Screw you guys! Aussies are some of the nicest people I've met.

Yep.

Spent a month on a coach tour of Europe with a bunch of Aussies.

Now, the Yanks on-board, well, they were a different matter.

So I don't believe you can attribute it to stupidity. Cultural difference I would say.

Ahem.

But look at China.

Ahem.

yes, we did well but let's not rest on our laurels. There is much to do still.

But look at China.

only Shanghai. I find the Asian approach too pressured. The Scandinavians as a group seem to be doing something right.

Excuse me now, I have to drink beer on the beach which is right outside my house. God I wish I didn't have to go drink beer on a beach but it's the law.

Yeah, life's real hard here in Sydney too. lol

A reflection of the type of people they grow up to be - whining, whinging, with a false sense of equality, in a fascist, racist and xenophobic country of lazy and dumb alcoholics, waiting for the immigrants to pay their taxes so they can get the dhol from the government!

Glad you left, we don't like bitter, twisted, communist teatotals.

This is just "my two cents" BUT.......

All the Australians I have met are well educated and very well spoken. They ALL have University degrees. Well mannered too. And a lot of fun to hang out with. I just love the "play hard or go home attitude". Im my opinion it is a whole lot better then the "Jon Bon Jovi arrogant attitude". I might live in Jon Bon Jovi's neck of the woods BUT I DO NOT agree with his type of attitude.

I much rather hang out with Australians. Like I said THIS IS JUST ME.
