@@brendonrookes1151 Our local one in a Gippsland town is supposed to be 24 hrs but they just don't have the staff to cover overnights; and we're also a relatively small population so it just doesn't make economic sense to keep it open.
And as a fellow Aussie, I have a coffee cup that probably makes the situation worse ... "Oh, you find it offensive? I find it funny. That's why I'm happier than you."
Aussie's don't like political correctness, but they also don't like jerks. So if you're openly racist, most people are gonna be turned off. Meaning you will be avoided and shunned, even if no one says anything to your face.
Australian here, but of a warning for people who might get the wrong idea, we don't like political correctness, but we also don't like jerks. If you're openly racist, most people are gonna be turned off.
Yep, we decide we like someone based on their qualities not their politics. Know people with different beliefs with me, don't give a shit if they're not a dick.
If you’re openly discussing “racism” based only on skin colour, rather than discussing those who appear to make a habit of promoting the divisiveness of people ranting at each other on our streets about religious philosophies, we’re definitely going to be turned off.
We're now being made a minority in our own country. Today I saw more Indians and Africans than I did fellow Australians around my own area. Indians just bought the house across the street, today, too. But, some of us; and here's where you chime in, are STILL going on about people being :racist"?!
I say similar to my daughter when she's acting up. That, life is pain and cute animals taste best are the best lessons I can think to teach her. Either I'm a horrible father or a brilliant one... Time will tell.
@@banjopete, there are a few bits he got almost flawlessly… but he can’t sustain it. However, it’s better than most people trying to talk Strine lol ;)
Bundy Rum is responsible for the most lethal AGBs in the world. (For non-Australians, "AGB" is an Australian abbreviation for "After Grog Bog" meaning "Post Alcohol Shit")
That's exactly what I thought. Half a bottle each, sure. But one and a half each??? Na... That knife maker would have turned into the knife stabber at that point 😂
@@zed5129 yeah but I don't think you understand what that amount of Bundy does to a person. They choose violence. Trust me, I've seen fully blown alcoholics turn nasty on a lot of it
I’m a naturalised Australian citizen; arrived in 1965 from UK. Boy are you right, Gabriel, it is a culture shock when you arrive. Now after 59 years I’m used to it. You do the accent very well, some say I’ve still got my Pommy accent.😊
@@deadinside8781 imagine growing up in a village in Yorkshire then in South Wales leaving all behind at 17 with my parents and siblings. We speak differently, Aussies can’t understand us, we can’t understand them. They really are straight talkers, no filters. Our traditions, way of eating, it’s all different. I married an Aussie in 72, we have three children and 6 grandchildren, I still say expressions they don’t understand. My brother in law still calls me a Pom, but I say I have a certificate to say I’m a naturalised Aussie. The comeback is always the same, it’s a piece of paper, you’re still a bloody Pom!
i honestly love that we're kinda hard on each other especially our friends cause it builds up that thick resilient skin you need to handle alot of the crap this country throws at you.
Man that was ballsy of you, we had some of the most savage lockdowns in the world right before you came 😂 Weren't you worried what you got yourself into? Either way, welcome bro
I know some people who could do it. Any airport and airline worth their salt would not let them board a plan, but at the least they could avoid the hospital. It was only 1.5 bottles each, which is around 30 standard drinks. Enough to make even the hardiest man very obviously drunk, but not enough that absolutely anyone would be hospitalised.
Sounds like maybe a pre-mixed bottle of Rum and coke, around 350ml. around 5%. he either smashed those down really quickly, or he was so drunk he lost count and actually had 10.
As a Canadian who never fit into the passive culture of "polical correctness," it was a breath of fresh air coming to Australia. I found a culture that was meant for me and I'm so grateful I get to live here forever!
The people who were like “get him back in the water” are what we call “fuck wits”. You pull that shit with your friends every day of the week, but you don’t do that with strangers ffs
As easy going as Australia may be, there is no way liquor licensing laws would allow any pub to let two blokes polish off three bottles of bundy in one sitting lol
Yeah I’m Australian and you obviously haven’t been to any dodgy bars. Cause I have been to PLENTY, that will let you drink as long and as hard as you like, as long as you don’t start shit.
The more I see this, the more I think the other two guys called the 3rd "bogan." Could be wrong, but the way he describes the guy, he'd fall under that category
@Shayhammowolf you don't have to know someone to call em a wanker, it's just what we call most drunk ediots, or just anyone we think is doing something stupid, or people who ain't doing anything and we just do it caus we're angry.....I'll just shorten it to we call everyone a wanker, except kids and woman, we're not assholes
Scotch, Bourbon or Tooheys or get ready to get laughed out of the pub :P ... but truthfully there is some really nice places to visit just don't expect to get state to state in a few hours.
The word you’re looking for to describe how drunk you were…… Hammered, completely hammered (it also sounds like you were almost legless) and Macca’s is open 24/7 in the big cities
Aussie here. You're 100% right about Fosters beer. It IS piss. NOBODY in Oz drinks it, but foreigners just assume we do. I was flying back to Oz on a Singapore Airlines flight after a holiday to Southeast Asia when the flight attendant asked me what I'd like to drink. I replied I'd like a beer please and, I guess she recognized my accent so cracked open a Fosters. She immediately saw the shocked (completely authentic) look on my face, straight away asked if there was something else I'd prefer and I happily took a Tiger beer off her hands.
I remember trying a Fosters tinny as a child ... we were always into pinching a beer from the folks even at 6 or 7, but that shit was spat out REAL quickly. Have NEVER touched it since and only really seen it a couple of times since.
Visited Ozland back in '78. Courtesy of Uncle Sam's Canoe Club i.e., USN. Our Destroyer Squadron pulled into Fremantle and Perth. Loved every single minute . Ozzies are the friendliness people on the face of the planet! And drank Emu Lager!
@@pat1012 I hear you. They might have been those mini bottles that bundy make, though. Like bar-fridge size ones (100ml or so). I think I’ve seen those sold. It’s probably just hyperbole though
No but seriously... it's good that a guy like him GOT IT and now has the influence to tell all American't how to act before coming here. let's be honest, Have you ever come across a backpacker, whether UK or American, You're at surry hills or bondi or something and they start talking to you and you just do the normal thing and they're too fucking serious........... it's just weird. you want to give them a slap in the head and say ... Lighten up mate
As Aussie as the Kangaroo grazing on my front bloody lawn , pretty damn funny and a night on Bundy is usually a morning after with a black eye and sore hand
Drinking rum with a knife maker. Doesn’t sound like the best idea you’ve ever had. Bundaberg rum is well known for making people angry when you drink to much.
@@rodneymiddleton1044 "VB is more likely to make people Angry as it is the bottom of the barrel beer" Actually, it's more likely you telling them that i's a bottom of the barrel beer that makes them angry rather the VB lol
Well done on the accent. You’re absolutely correct re Fosters - nobody drinks that. Bundy is awesome - overproof (OP) Bundy is even better - 100% maniac soup. We would describe your drunken condition as “legless” - but probably alright to drive, because you could still talk. 😂😂😂😂
Looking forward to seeing the next part of this - it sounds like they were heading straight to the airport and he was just given a pocket knife while drunk… something tell me this went into a pocket and not checked in luggage.
fk yeah, i didnt need some psychosomatic incident to put me off bundy. the first time i smelt it i thought it was distilled ants, scotch isnt much better but i can drink it. im more into white spirits like vodka, must be genetics.
Right, because people who don't give a fuck really care about what is and isn't legal. Especially those with an old school mentality. That's the whole point of the bit. Haven't you heard the saying "it's only illegal if you get caught"?
It does make me wonder about theBundy though. . 3 bottles of pre-mixed Bundy, and he wouldn't be very drunk. 3 bottles of straight Bundy, and he'd be dead! But straight Bundy looks nothing like coke, so it must have been premixed. Very strange.
