Default An Aussie

I must not be a true Australian. This is a dreadful aberration.

* You think it's normal to have a leader called Julia.
Quote:
* You pronounce Melbourne as 'Mel-bin'.
It's more like "Melb'n". 'Mel-bin' is a Hollywood approximation.

Quote:
* You understand that 'Wagga Wagga' can be abbreviated to 'Wagga'
It can also be called 2 wogs.

* You know it's not summer until the steering wheel is too hot to handle and a seat belt buckle becomes a pretty good branding iron.
That may have been the case before they were made with plastic covers.

Quote:
* You know that some people pronounce Australia like "Straya" and that's ok.
Not when the current PM says it. (See point 1).

Quote:
You believe the 'l' in the word 'Australia' is optional.
NOT.
