wouldnt have noticed the only reply if it wasnt highlighted, thanks

[–]ANAL_QUEEN 1 point2 points ago

I wouldn't've known it was funny if I didn't see that smiley.

[–]RICH_LITTLE 24 points25 points ago

Australian checking in... I used to ride a Kangaroo to school but then my sister hit puberty and it wasn't kind to her. She put on a stack of weight and split the pouch and we had to put my family Kangaroo down... I miss old Bess... :-(.... Not a single word of a lie.

[–]jjs198822 1 point2 points ago

Yeah, but were you drinking a Fosters?

[–]george1st 2 points3 points ago

Australians don't really drink fosters

[–]Idrathernotpickaname 3 points4 points ago

What IS the most popular beer in Australia?

[–]Kristyyyyyyy 4 points5 points ago

I might get killed by beer fanatics here, but I would say probably Carlton Draught. It seems to be a fairly generic, please-almost-everyone beer. Or else XXXX or Melbourne Bitter.

[–]Nobby_Nobbs 4 points5 points ago

XXXX

Fo... Four-ecks?

MY USERNAME IS FINALLY RELEVANTISH!

[–]jjs198822 0 points1 point ago

[–]hollander93 0 points1 point ago

Fuck you it's tooheys new!

[–]kenzitron12 1 point2 points ago

Carlton Dry, Carlton Draught, VB or XXXX.

[–]george1st 0 points1 point ago

i'm unsure, google it

[–]Wait_____What 5 points6 points ago

Almost all of these comments are, "Repost, boooo."

It has 1056 comment karma as I type this. Where do all those upvotes come from? I FEEL LIKE I'M TAKING CRAZY PILLS

[–]stanker4 33 points34 points ago

Repost.

[–]duBiYou 5 points6 points ago

I cracked my ipods screen turning the upvote to a downvote once you said it was a repost.

[–]TheDroopy 0 points1 point ago

And apparently it was two years old back then too.

[–]soapinmouth 2 points3 points ago

This was reposted and reposted fixed, now reposted again.

[–]JohnPocheacha 1 point2 points ago

The circleee of reposts

[–]jargoon 0 points1 point ago

It upvotes us aallllll

[–]cowpunter -2 points-1 points ago

Who's more annoying, the reposter or the OVER 9000 assholes bitching about the reposter. Hint: punctuation.

[–]SquidManGodofWar 0 points1 point ago

"Fuck the rediquette"- stanker4

*edit: Please don't: Complain about reposts. Just because you have seen it before doesn't mean everyone has. Votes indicate the popularity of a post, so just vote. Keep in mind that linking to previous posts is not automatically a complaint; it is information. Votes indicate how the community values information, so just vote.

Don't be silly. A person couldn't fit inside a kangaroo pouch. Everyone knows Australians use kangaroo pouches to store their extra blue singlets and thongs when they're out and about.

[–]TheDroopy 1 point2 points ago

Like, foot thongs or ass thongs?

[–]MpegEVIL 2 points3 points ago

Repost.

[–]I-hate-reposts 3 points4 points ago

Sad Sad repost...

[–]westophales -2 points-1 points ago

Your username... I get it.

[–]belflandluvr 1 point2 points ago

Wait OP, which part of the picture am I supposed to be looking at? There's too much to take in.

[–]vishalb777 0 points1 point ago

That picture that must be cropped

[–]Tabtub17 1 point2 points ago

Also another Australian- We had a pet koala called Mark, and I used to give him piggy backs. But then Old age hit and he got a little heavy.

[–]TheTalkingCamelAnus 0 points1 point ago

It's not as fun as in the cartoons. :(

[–]Rose94 1 point2 points ago

Mate please, down here, all the cool kids go out bush an rangle up a few emu's to ride on. They're much smoother rides than kanga's, but kanga's are easier and cheaper to maintain because of the popularity, but if you want a truly good ride from A to B you can't go past the emu.

Only trouble with both of 'em is they can be pretty tough to reverse...

[–]cowpunter 1 point2 points ago

You're not supposed to operate them in reverse, just turn them around. In this respect emus are vastly superior because the learning curve in the kanga reversing technique is quite steep since you have to get the kanga to lift up and pivot on its tail and they can often miscoordinate and fall on their side.

oh god reddit, don't relapse into last week and start posting that australian > american > british > canadian image macro again.

[–]Anaract -1 points0 points ago

seriously, this isn't funny at all. most of the top /r/funny posts today have been boring "trolls" like this.

[–]reed5point0 0 points1 point ago

I feel your upside down heart pains Aussies. As a Texan I have had yankees ask me if we still rode horses to work and school. o_0
