what are the average Australians like?

pgj2015

Reason I am asking is every time i watch reality Australians cop tv shows, the people they deal with seem really stupid, clowns driving without insurance in a car that is falling apart, revving the engine to draw attention to themselves in front of the police. then laughing when they get three different tickets which costs them 1200 dollars.

are they generally a bit dim or what?

Yikes. How bad would Ireland look if we had a reality show following our lads?

Cut to hand covering camera while they are hiding the used breathalysers...

You would do well to kiss their feet, when you see them… PEASANT!

Average really, for the most part.

Those shows aren’t going to show the normal boring interactions. I’d imagine we could manage similar.

Racist mainly

Two arms and I believe two legs. Maybe a head and a pair of feet. Some have hands.

Deadly spiders, snakes, sharks and the heat causes them to go insane

In all seriousness quite similar to the Irish.

Not the friendliest imo...bit standoffish...watch opal hunters and gold diggers on the telly and you'll get a feel for what they're like

City ones are fine to get along with however not a great work ethic. They do value a good work life balance more than most western nations. Wouldn't catch them throwing themselves towards overtime not that there is anything inherently wrong with that.

The country ones are fairly obnoxious and can be quite racist.

You spend a lot of time watching Home and Away with a cushion on your lap

Self depreciating humour, healthy disregard for authority figures, most Aussies are easy going and sociable. They don't take themselves too seriously.
Immigrants and "Abbos" can be hot topics for them.

Basically a great big Alabama. Surprisingly racist and sexist in a casual way.

Good craic sometimes though.

As mixed a bag as any other nationality. Some good, some bad and the rest indifferent. Also use the word c*nt more than any other nationality.

Worked with a gay Sydneyite a few years ago in Dublin.

Lazy. Racist. Dim but not aware of that. Obsessed with D4 lifestyle. Made casual jokes about north side and culchies.
