Fosters VS Budlight? My god, that's some evil shit. Irish ale, German beer, and good ol' fashioned Mexican Mescal. Guess both countries are fucked for the alcohol *unless you like a nice ass kicking bourbon like Maker's Mark, then the US is supremo*

But I hear the aborigines have some killer psychadelic drugs... could use some Dreamtime about now.
 
my relatives and friends living in Sydney... :D

dirty mother Europe has it all, descendants. oh, well, ok, except for the kangaroos... mfmm...

to those who don't like Foster's. try Corona.

:)
 
Unless you're in Mexico. The imported stuff has to meet bottling and health standards, but Corona IN Mexico doesn't, and it's rank and harsh and if you want a good light beer, drink Warsteiner. As their add says "Because a light beer shouldn't have to to suck."
 
deepfried hamburger? i've never heard of that... wtf?

hamburgers are only tasty if grilled and grilled properly
 
All I know about Australia is what my friend who relocated there 7 years ago (Bayron Bay) tells me.
She says it's heaven on earth. and she is the cutest happiest hippie on earth too :lol:
I'd like to see it one day

BUT:

This one time, she and I were talking on Netmeeting (this was 3-4 years ago) and saw
eachother on web cams.
So after an hour or so, I notice something black on the wall behind her.
So I go: "Carmit, what is this black thing on the wall behind you?"
on web cam, she turns around, looks at it for 3 seconds, and then types back:
"Oh it's a huge spider, but don't worry it'll go away, they always come in here"
This this was HUGE - I meanHUGE!!!!!!!
I freaked out 20,000 miles from it sitting in Israel ... and she was...nothing!
What kind of place is this, that you're not freaked by a HUGE (did I tell you how huge this thing was ? think Tarantula, now 4 times bigger) spider like that?

Story two: One time I call her for our weekly phone call chit-chat and she picked up the phone and sounded tired. So I asked what happened and how come she is tired, and she tells me that...*get this*
Every year thousands of ants come in your house and fly all over the place, for 3 days and they basically get in your car, your house, your hair...
and she was like: "yeah Karen, it's really hard, if they fly into my hair it's no biggie to shake them off, but when you realize you just ate one because it flew in your mouth or on your sandwich..."

True stories guys. I swear.


I am *DYING* to go visit her one day... dying to see Australia and New Zealand.... I hear so many awesome things..
but ...
by golly, I'll have to wear a bee keeping suit there I think :lol:
 
@Karen Lioness: that's crazy but goes with the laidback territory, I'd imagine. I fucking hate spiders though, which is weird given that I was fascinated by all insects and arachnids as a child (Arachnophobia is still an awesome film, too).

3 of the 5 best cities on earth in which to live are in Australia.

So I've heard. I'd believe it, as well.
 
I like Australian maps, and Australian porn. They sell Foster's here, but I've never had it. You guys need to start marsupial farms for meat export here so that I can say I've eaten kangaroo steak and/or koala burgers.
 
Nevered bothered with the Foster's. All my Aussie friends and former colleagues told me that Foster's is to Australian beer what Budweiser is to American beer, in the sense that there are tons of infinitely better beers to be bought.

There's some alliteration for you.

Hahaha.
It was probably a huntsman. They are quite common, and are relatively harmless. Can get quite massive too.
For a country which has more things that can kill you than anywhere else, it's really not that bad :p. Only during the summer the insects can get overwhelming. As of right now I have several hundred colliding with the window next to me.

As for beer.. Coopers, Tooheys and Cascade are quite decent. Australian wine is quite nice too.
