Haven't there been like 20 threads on this (lame) subject before in the UK skybar. To sum it up, no-one gives a sh*t!

Not really offended because Australians are known in the UK and throughout the world for their constant whinging and whining a country that doesn't have its own identity or culture!

Q: What's the difference between Australia and yoghurt?
A: Yoghurt has culture.

You wouldn't believe the reaction that provoked from the ~20% of the patrons who were Australian - I was practically lynched on the spot. "Oh, yeah, well if you don't like it you can fuck off home, ya fuckin' Pommie bastard!" and so forth.

Fast forward a year or so, and I'm in an Aussie bar near Covent Garden listening to the backpackers cracking their usual jokes, as the ~20% of the patrons who were whinging Poms just took it on the chin. No big deal.
Classic inferiority complex.

Relentlessly slag off others but can't take it coming the other way... Your joke evidently hit a raw nerve.

Most Australians I've met tended to be annoying, although they were often friends.

The most annoying was one I met while at a Go Kart track in China, he came in, Fat Ass Expat with tiny token chinese wife and "business associates", all he did was brag and shout and be annoying and pompous. He kept going on about how amazing the more expensive go karts were and how hes so good at them.

He went on, and like I expected was shit. Argh...annoying git. Haha.

That is typical of aussies to act like that. I was there just after we beat them in the rugby world cup back in 2004. I had plenty of ammuntion lol
