lol, life's sweet when you're an oss-ie

Ah well, I love this country - we have nice people (with exceptions of course), the best football and hell the weathers not too damn bad.

Do you guys think we're pretty laid-back? cause a lot of people get that impression...

That's true.For some reason I want to cry when I hear that song.But I do agree thatthe national anthem should be changed.I know we are suppose to respect our heritage but I can't respect the anthem anymore than I do because it's really boring.Anyway...

The Anthem sucks ass! I mean, you it's our national anthem and I actually know the words :shock: but it's old and boring. But, we are one but we are many, I love that one /dr0k.

HAHAH! Hell yes. I don't think we're as uptight as some other nations. Hmmm, if Justin Timberlake has flashed Janet Jackson's boobies at the AFL or NRL grand finals I think most Aussies would have laughed their asses off and that would have been the end of it.

Really? Do you like Milo? HAHA, can you get Vegemite as well? A lot of my North American friends are too scared to try it.

OI OI OI

I love Vegemite.A lot of my friends don't but they were born overseas.So maybe it's just our unique Aussie tastebuds.

Australia's a great country. I love and am very proud to be an Australian. Yeahh..Go Australia!

Down Under

Traveling in a fried-out combie
On a hippie trail, head full of zombie
I met a strange lady, she made me nervous
She took me in and gave me breakfast
And she said,

"Do you come from a land down under?
Where women glow and men plunder?
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover."

Buying bread from a man in Brussels
He was six foot four and full of muscles
I said, "Do you speak-a my language?"
He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich
And he said,

"I come from a land down under
Where beer does flow and men chunder
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover."

Lying in a den in Bombay
With a slack jaw, and not much to say
I said to the man, "Are you trying to tempt me
Because I come from the land of plenty?"
And he said,

"Oh! Do you come from a land down under? (oh yeah yeah)
Where women glow and men plunder?
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover."

Totally the taste buds me thinks.

Why?

Cos we're happy lil vegemites, as bright as bright can be.
We all enjoy our vegemite for breakfast, lunch and tea.
Our mummies say we're growing stronger every single week.
Because we love our vegemite.
We all enjoy our vegemite.
It puts the rose in every cheek.

*bows, thank-you, thank-you*

OMFG. You made me want to lock this thread with that song Jade...

I'm not Australian. It's true. I fuckin' hate Vegemite.

*hangs head*

amyleeszero

Awesome song.It could be a contestant in 'Australian Anthem Idol'.Auditions are now open to be the next Australian Anthem.

Its okay. My twin sister (identical) hates the stuff too. Funny, how we can share the same features, same music, same movies, but we appear to have unidentical tastebuds.

I admit I can only eat it very very lightly spread and has to be in combination with a liberal dose of butter. I can never understand the people who have Vegemite with a side of bread.

So for the charge of unAustralianess by refusing to eat the holy-est of holy foods, I sentence you to be pelted with olives and your debt to society will be paid
