I thought Australia was a continent with criminals, overgrown rodents, spiders, and snakes.
You mean there is like a real country around there?

Yes to many sheep over there they say sex instead of six. Gets them into trouble. Australia is in the process of kicking a lot of the Kiwis out of our country / continent. They are freeloading here on our generosity.

There Is No Australia
And in this case, the problem is that it started me thinking.
Think about it, a continent where everything wants to kill you, and which nonetheless has inhabitants? What sense does that make? Oh, and their best known animal is a photogenic giant rat who is …. a marsupial? And can box? Right. And people who live there are like uninhibited Britishers who continuously brag about their big knives? Yeah, that’s likely. Couldn’t they at least have chosen the French? I mean, they’re more likely to brag about their phallic objects.
Yup, Australians talk funny and New Zealanders talk funnier.

Go look up Monotreme as I am sure you won't know what that is without pushing some buttons. And as far as out cutlery is concerned they are bigger than yours and you have far more trouble understanding our language than we do yours. .

According to wiki (I'd read this before):
The first scientists to examine a preserved platypus body (in 1799)[3] judged it a fake, made of several animals sewn together.[4]
I know a number of people with Katana (I believe my daughter has one). Pretty sure my brother has a machette. As far as the cutlery challenge goes "come get some."
Of course Australians understand Americans. They are used to listening to english even though they don't speak the language.

I met some New Zealanders at Mount Everest.....they were cool. Its not surprising that some people don't know such things but it wasn't really clear what the teacher was looking for in the first place.

Sadly the original story was about someone who was ignorant and arrogant. The teacher was demonstrating her superiority, which isn't a good idea if you aren't superior.
Have to admit that August has schooled me a bit about her animals in this thread. Learned enough about monotreme and marsupial physiology that I would like to unlearn some of it.
