I was wondering what people the Aussies make fun of, in the same way the Brits make fun of the Welsh and Irish. Also do prejudices change around the county, e.g. Perth makes fun of "so-and-so", Brisbane makes fun of "such-and-such" and Sydney, well you get the idea.

Just wondering who are the butt of aussie jokes.

AJ.

probably us Brits I expect.......

Syndney and Melbourne both think they are the best

People from Perth don't count cos they may aswell live in another country.

Queenslanders are Banana benders ( ) red necks, bit slow etc

Tasmanians (Taswegians) have 2 heads

South Australians, proof that tasmanians can swim

This is only what i've heard, don't agree with any of it, well apart from the bit that says Melbournes the best

Yeah, I'm kinda worried about this being the general answer!

On the basis of 9 weeks all over Australia I would have to say the answer is:

Everybody

If you are genuinely worried you need to toughen up. Taking the piss is a great Aussie pass time

Bloody Mexican's

Just consider it pay back time

Which would you prefer? Banabenda or red neck

Well the job we're on at the moment reminds me of Deliverance.
There's no power on in the the whole area most folks are as ferral as they can get and I'm sure if you asked "Is the lady your wife or your sister?" the answer would be yes So I guess I'd best go for Redneck. Yee Haw where's my shoes

What? you own shoes? I reckon you must be posh for them parts

Lord of the Manor me Hevs Prince among paupers................... not

hey hevsm just cos he owns them doesn't mean he wears them - probably displays them in a glass case as "ancient relics of the old country"

You've seen em in there that's hardly fair is it
Besides I bought myself some double pluggers for special occasions you know weddings funerals etc..........

As its a Friday night, here is a wee story (true, sadly).

In my local bottle shop, when I first arrived I got ribbed just for the fact I was British. In fact,the worst time was when I turned up in a Scotland Rugby top. He insisted on telling me for 4 weeks running that his son worked in Scotland

Then the British Lions tour started, so they started taking the p with that, not that there where many Scots on the team. They even gave me a British Lions losers poster which has pride of place under the back seat of my car somewhere, maybe.

Today, I went in, it was raining. The guy goes, 'Bet you wish it was raining in britain to save you poms from getting beat'. Now I have no interest in cricket, I'm not english, and so I really couldn't give a damn. But 'yeah, whatever, you beating us rounders now?'

Depends how you take it. I reckon the guys in the bottle shop think they've got a pom to wind up. They'll be sadly disappointed, but hey ho
