Yooouuuu idiot. I'd rather have Americans think we're all crocodile-hunting psychics than what this faggot is portraying.

He's not Australian - there aren't enough plants and animals trying to kill him.

[TheElfdreaming]

I eat kangaroo all the time.

@NimbleJack3 all the major bushfires over the past few years though have been caused by the examples i gave

[NimbleJack3]

@DJHastenz

They do indeed naturally combust - the oils in the bark vaporise from the leaves under heat, producing the 'blue haze' that the Victorian mountains are so famous for. The leaves also contain large amounts of phenolics which discourage fungal decomposition, letting them settle as dry litter on the ground. This creates a large fuel source to fuel forest fires - while sometimes ignition can result from artificial sources, often it is simply the heat of the Australian sun.

[DJHastenz]

honestly most aussies just mimic the american slang, our culture is heavily weighted on their lifestyle. Sadly the old identity of "true blue Aussie" is fading fast

[DJHastenz]

@NimbleJack3 the trees themselves don't spontaneously combust its when pyromaniacs and faulty electrical equipment is involved. often bushfires are started because someone accidently didn't contain the area. its true that eucalyptus is an accelerant

[NimbleJack3]

@DJHastenz

The Eucalyptus tree's bark contains flammable oils, that are intended to spontaneously combust on one of the many hot summer days and create massive forest fires that still claim hundreds of lives.

We also have Stinging Trees, a tall and woody variety of nettle that can cause harsh stinging to quick death with a slight brush. The needles are so fine, skin can even close up after them.

Oh my, I want to hurt you. "Them some nice apples" What the fuck, never have I once heard anybody say that.

Oh, If you are making fun of our home country... Why don't I do it back? Because, you are the one of some that do not have any respect... you just insulted a whole country. You are an ass.

Good day.
