What is it with this crap yankee talk that gets me pissed.

Sayings like " Cherry Bomb"

And "Its the Bomb"

Dont know about you guys but I dont like Aussies acting and talking like Yanks.

Especially the trash people you see at Supermarkets.

And this trailer trash thing is huge now.

Just a dig Yo Baby Yo. Wheres my bitch, Whos got my Bling Bling (big gold necklace thing)
Does this annoy anyone else or am I getting old. hahaha

It's a case of can't live with them, can't live without them.
Where would we be chasing VW parts without the US market? Probably non existant. (well over priced at least).
Not that I'm a fan!!!

I find some of the slang fun ... like it da bomb how can you not like that ... some of like bling bling - i have never heard of hahahaha you must be befriending ppl in a whole ‘nother hip-hopping beep-boppin echelon ...

FYI "Bling Bling" is a japanese term for something excessively flashy and expensive. It's origin in the USA and here is from the import scene.

rhys

ok, stop being 'fully sic hetic bro' all go back to Westfeilds. and hang out at da KFC..

BTW - that song DEFENTLY sums it all up..

Yo yo that american talk it tight, ya feel me blood?
Forshizzle on ma nizzle Biaatch.
Whats up wit dem Poms wit da "trouble n strife, shes all apples and pears, tellin Porky pies" ya know its not hard its forsheesy blood.

Bloody Seppos its bad enough they think they're all of that and a large packet of potato chips but their egotistical arrogance leaps oceans to convert our weekminded in believing the hype, Many young Ozzies would rather wear the american flag as part of their clothing than the Australian flag, Next time you see that take the time to ask them why?
I have asked a few and they all came up with the same brain dead defence, "I Like the colours " and they have nothing to say when you ask them what colours their own flag is, as they then realise that its the same and they appear very stupid.
But thats the power of marketing for you.

Next time you hear a yank raving about their superior Country, and or space program etc ask them why the space shuttle is all made in imperial measurements and tolerances as are the Boeing aeroplanes, and their road signs etc yet the rest of the world welcomed the German origin metric system with open arms. because it makes sense and is easy to understand, You can work out what things are just by knowing that KILO means 1000 Cent means 100 and it can all be calibrated and cross checked with a bucket of water.
I can see the Martians now, looking over the spacecraft they find left behind and pissing themselves laughing at the fact that its all in Imperial threads and measurements. and saying "they expect us to incorparate and function in unison with this rubbish?" what a joke.

Any way I guess I am getting a bit side tracked with the topic, but I think that this century will unite or terminate this planet, we will all become states of America if we know whats good for us, the only thing stopping them taking over the world is it costs too much. so they will do it bit by bit.
The information available to the public is so corrupt and biased its ridiculus to even have an opinion on world events while you live on the same planet.
Having said that, now public opinion has been influenced to read, "anyone opposing the American way must be an evil terrorists" Thats called witch hunting in times gone by, example?

Throw the suspected witch in the river with weights attached, If she sinks and drowns then she was innocent, but if she manages to make it to shore then she must have used her witch powers and this proves she is a witch and then she must be burned alive at the steak.

So In short I guess it Does annoy me when Australians pretend to be americans. and no, youre not alone.
I just cant stand Egomaniacs if they happen to be American then the shoe fits and they wear it.
Cheers Tony.

o agree, it annoys me, all i can do is hope that when they grow up a bit they realise there is other stuff to do and the more interesting people are the ones who just do what they want rather than trying to model themselves compleetly on others.

herbie... i really don't like the idea of burning witches at the steak as i much prefur mine meadiun rare

(yes before anyone gets up me i know my spelling is far far worse than herbies )

oops had to edit to fix a spelling mistake.

What can I say Herb, great post really enjoyed you thoughts.

Glad to see Im not the only one that thinks that teenage girls at train stations hanging out talking like Jerry Springer Contestants and also resembling someone on it last week, does not appeal.

Oh and they were singing some hip hop crap black music with an accent.

Whats with this country, STOP TRYING TOP BE AMERICAN. Can you tell one thing they have in their country that is better than our beautiful, clean, wide open spaces that god call his own country??

We need to stand and be ourselves and be pround about our origins throught thick and thin.

We need to realise that what we have is very special and the rest of the world wouldn't mind a chunk of it either.
Dont sell you soul to the devil...


:vader

Especially our Kombi's Lads and Lasses. ;-)

It is sad to see people overseas are coming to get our precious metal so rather sell them a bit cheaper to a caring aussie and see them on our roads instead of theirs.
Here is one that is staying,just sold on saturday,was not advertised.

staying in aus .. not mine :cry

When I went there I had a guy ask me where I was from, I said I was from Australia, he said, {and he was dead serious} " Ive never been there, but I love european countries and I just love the snow"
I did my best dr evil impersonation, "RRIIGGHHTT"
Good for you I said, not even offering to correct him.

I just had a friend come over from Sanfransisco to stay for 6 weeks,
He lasted nearly 2 weeks before he booked a flight and left, He couldnt handle the laid back lifestyle here, he needed to be doing something involving a bar or a coffee shop or anything else that could have been done in california, it was like the conversation between the two most intelligent beings on earth,
The Humans and the Dolphins, the humans think THEY are the smartest because they invented combustion engines and nuclear power and massive civilisations and the dolphins think THEY are the smartest because they DIDN'T invent them.
when we were in America he was Raving to me all about how Big California was, how big america was, Like he thought Australia was as big as Hawai, so I couldnt resist the temptation when he said
"I fly into Sydney airport at 6 am Wednesday, can you pick me up?"
{He Never even thought to check how close we really were to the Sydney Airport.}
Oh sure I said,
{I live on the GoldCoast}
So My brother and I drove to Sydney, Picked him up and gave him some breakfast at Bondi, then proceeded to drive him home to the goldcoast, making out it wasnt a big deal, As you can imagine after a 14 hour flight a 12 hour drive he wasnt counting on, It was murder for him.
WE hadnt even gotten out to the pacific highway before he was saying geez how far is it to your place? not real far by Aussie standards, we said, at newcastle he was going "youre not serious, How much further?" Not far we said, just a hop skip and a jump up the road.

AM I a Bad Man?

By Coffs harbour he was swearing and crying, "you cant be serious"and "Im going to sleep"
He knew he had been asleep for a few hours when he woke but just couldnt believe we were still driving.
The Mastercard corporation couldnt afford to pay for the look on his face when, as we crossed the NSW/QLD border I said " That marks the half way mark" with a straight face.

Poor bugger he would have rather lost a limb than travel another Klm.

But the next Day he saw the funny side of it but his Ass was still sore from sitting for so long.
I am pretty sure that his leaving had nothing to do with the torture we subjected him to, driving all that way.
He'll get over it.

By the way I dont mind all the Cars going overseas because that just makes my cars rarer and worth more.
But harder for parts.
Cheers Tony

Nice work Herbs, on both posts !
One thing i cant stand too, young girls smoking, talking like a yank try hard chewing with her mouth open with clothes that make her look cheap and slutty ! Respect yourself for gods sake !
And the tough boys in baggy pants and STUPID bandanas, bad facial hair, slick unwashed hair, oversised puffer jackets and look like they have attitude on everything !
SHITS me becuase they look for trouble to cause and to who? Normal everyday ppl doing nothing but going about there day.
Hommie: "What are u lookin' at huh' !"
Me: "nothing, absoloutly nothing"
Nothing is what they are and what they will achieve.......

I agree, next these kids will be driving foreign cars.

yeah but not nice foreign cars, they will have very ugly body kits on them like the mullholand look ! with bad rap pumping out of the lowered windows !

I am 30 and I like listening to Eminem. I think he is a good entertainer. The operative word is entertainer. I am not compelled to live anything like him or the homies that follow. I think there is a little bit of a problem with the huge amount of TV + American influence = kids becoming less likely to have their own personality.
Yeah I grew up in the 80's and was a headbanger/ bogan and followed like a sheep, but that was not as American as what kids do now.
How Aussie is a group of bogans from Dandenong? LOL

Oh on the distance thing. I had an Auntie come over from Holland and she spun out how far it was from Tullamarine airport to my parents place (220km to the VIC/NSW border). She remarked that she can catch a train to Paris for the day to do shopping that distance. That's to another country in a train doing 200 kmh. Here we were driving through bugger all just to get home. LOL

Just a few words to think of

SAMBA
DECK LID
DYNAMO
WINGS
FENDERS
VALANCE PANELS
ROCKERS

need i say more.

Everyone Is an Individual! Let them speak how they want! At the end of the day, We are in Australia, that is supposed to be Multi-cultural! If you dont like slang sayings from the Us or Uk or anywhere else, Dont use it, But dont crack the shits when others use it, cause then you are telling people how to live!

But thats just me!

N!
