I like wallowing in it, with ungrateful dullards. I'm bonkers like that.

Same. The best thing I inherited from my dipshit father was the gift for selective hearing.

Gosh! Really? Is it not because you're not as smart as you think and utterly conceited?
In other words a typical Aussie.

Think that might have been self-deprecation me old mucker...

Bizarre.... you sound like someone who is dredging the bottom of all known (madeup) stereotypes which is typical of people who have returned. I've actually met far more conceited Europeans than I have ever met Australians. I find the louder and rougher (which is a 'typical' and oft-acused but not always true stereotype) the Australian the less conceited they are. They are too much the battler but strangely naive and innocent with it to be like that.
And even then that's only a certain part of society.

I was having my hair cut the other day and there was an Englishman next to me who was pretty vile, the way he was talking to the hairdresser. At one point she even told him he was going too far and he looked absolutely stumped for a moment. Then all he could go on about was his champagne breakfasts. I'd forgotten you got Englishmen like that. Now he was conceited. I've never met an Australian like that.

Never ceases to amaze me how people fabricate silly stereotypes on the back of other observable, and (possible criticisable), behaviour.

Nice. I can see the headline now. "Newbie tells old hand to bugger off"

I look forward to the response. :D

Just a question, how come mic and mat have so much karma?? Is it because they were telling an old hand to bugger off? Maybe?

Ah the old salt of the earth battler, lurching from one tired stereotype to the other.

You're certainly not a typical Aussie,you're too articulate.I have red hair,have battered Mars bars for breakfast and toss my caber all day long.
