I couldn't stop reading, and other than the mildly offensive statements made about the U.S. (I'm not saying your wrong, just they were kinda offensive) This statement was absolutely an epic win, thanks for destroying this trolls points, hell, you even did it in a mostly polite manner. You, sir, are the man!shannon.archer said:

OP, go outside for once.
Sounds like the only way to make you enjoy Australia would be if there were more terrorists exploding, more homocidal rampages, more invasions and wars.
Not interesting flora/fauna? The platypus is fucking weird, all native evolved in complete isolation and wound up totally screwed. Oh, and I don't know, I guess they're just boring because EVERY ANIMAL in the country seems to be able to kill you.

Tell you what, I live in Australia too, and to some extent... No I can't see where you are coming from, go read the wiki for cambodia and get happy. Also I dare you to go tell any member of our serving defence force that we are never involved overseas and that we can't defend ourselves, the fact that our defence plan somewhat centres around guerilla warfare not withstanding. Also have you ever left your house, gotten out and seen the country; kakadu rocks, also I highly recommend magnetic island.
As far as flora and fauna go, well I'm not much of a botanist so I'll focus on cool animals; we have the Thorny devil one of the worlds all time coolest lizards, we have the platypus an animal that if it were in a fauna RPG would be created by dragging the cute and weird sliders simultaneously to max, Australia is also home to the Kookaburra a truly bad-ass bird that laughs at things and then eats them, and the most obvious example of awesome fauna, crocodiles not those pussy alligators they get in less scary countries but crocodiles that can grow to 12m I mean admittedly crocs are native to much of the southern hemisphere but thats beside the point.
What I am trying to say here is get out and look at our country, because seriously it rocks. oh and one last thing if you are into hiking and in NSW I recommend checking out the great north walk.

To the Op,
I could make a long detailed post about how good Australia is and that not having to many wars and financial crises is a good thing, how you are narrow minded, uneducated but we both know you are wrong and that you need to get out of you little computer room and stop bitching about Australias TV and see the real Australia that has interesting Flora, Fauna, geography, history and guns. Seriously if you think a country is boring because it has shit tv you are an absoloute retard.
your jsut a troll trying to get angry responses out of people
noone here is angry because your point is invalid,poorly researched, aroogant and stupid.
we are jsut angry that people like you ruin our forums

Australia is about 221 years old, since when the First Fleet arrived.
Any country will seem boring once you live there long enough.
Plus Australia has the most uranium mines or something, but I think it's all given away
Also, our MetalStorm weaponry kicks butt. 1,000,000 RPM with next to no recoil? Yes please
Plus the FireStorm version can fire 40mm rounds at 6,000 RPM (no recoil), and it only requires Internet access and a household power supply

So because we don't go off to war, because we aren't a terrorist target, we're boring?BlakBladz said:
Our country is doing better than a lot of other countries during the financial crisis. Australia will be in the green before a lot of the first world countries.
I'll agree with you on this, but that doesn't make us boring.
Which part of our history is boring? We were a convict country, originally discovered by the Dutch. And if you look into Aboriginal history, it's even more interesting. And we're a little older than 200.
We have some of the rarest animals on the planet! Marsupials are exclusive to Australia! How is that boring? We also have some of the most dangerous animals on the planet.
Can you elaborate on that?
Meaning we're stealthy bastards.
Against the greenback, our dollar almost matches theirs. We're a few cents off. In fact, a quick google search: 1 Australian dollar = 0.9221 U.S. dollars
You're looking at it from such a shallow point of view. If you're comparing us to another country like Britain or America, then yeah, we're boring but because we're not as established. But look further than the superficial and you find so much interesting stuff! Like Newcastle, where I live, is the biggest exporter of Coal this side of the hemisphere. And we have the biggest salt lake in this hemisphere too. We're a multicultural nation and we're not a warmongering super power and frankly I'm happy about that.
If you don't like it then gtfo? A)We can defend ourselves, Australia has one of the most well trained armies in the world. B)Whats not awesome about a kangaroo hurling its young at predators. C)What the hell do you want? A world war 3? Won't be as exciting in real life as in movies and games.
form you're sayings about australia im guessing you don't live in melborne don't just judge them by that god awful add http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPB7qi9o7dM (if you're ragging on aust hate this so much)because there is always goings ons' down there like music festivals and expos. and how about ozfest that happens and it screams awsome
Urm.. do some research, youll find Australia actually presided in the "chair" over the foundation of the human rights act and alot of that other stuff.BlakBladz said:
Oh yeah wasn't talking about the marines. But I wasn't really saying the normal army was bad, just the Australian infantry were more disciplined/trained by comparison.WhiteTiger225 said:
I would like to see that competition, I think it would be anyone's game. We only have one infantry combat Corp in Australian. The Australian army has some of the hardest trained and most professional soldiers, it's got very high standards. Similar to your Marine Corp I'd assume.
They were murderers and Rapist, dont believe propaganda that tells you the first convicts were anything but. Most of them were the worst Britain had too offer and saying anything else shows how ignortant you are.BlakBladz said:
We screwed ourselves over in WW1 because our own stupid soldiers couldnt land on the right beach. We are a country that celebrates incompetence.
No recession? I wont even answer that
No interest Fauna/Flora...have you been living under a rock? Australia has some of the rarest animals on the planet that cannot be found anywhere else and same with plants, you dont need mountains to have a beautiful landscape. All we lack is the cultural landscape for example we dont have anything like London, Tokyo or New York.
What have you got against Kangaroo's and Koala? did one rape your mother or something? Have you seen what Lions and such do to some of there young?
We have done heaps for the UN, mostly in peace-keeping missions sorry but we dont have the military power of the USA so we cant just fling our 30,000 strong army at random countries for some reason that just wouldnt work. Thats why we specialze in Recon because we dont have the numbers to be a military superpower, so we train our guys to operate as small units and use tactics. We actually have some of the best military hardware available but yet again, why do we need things like Harriers and Aircraft Carriers? Thats why they never replaced the HMAS:Melbourne when it was decommissioned because it was just a luxuary.
We are part of the G20...how can you say we are not a rich nation? Yet again you seem to have a bad source of information, most from you trying to pass yourself off as a Intellectual while speaking like a Bogan. How are we a slave camp may I ask? Did you even think that statement through or did you say it thinking it would make you look smart?
I am only a 1st-generation Australia with British ancestry....even I dont think Australia is that bad and I usually argue for the 'Australia sucks' side but I think it's simply it sucks in a cultural sense.
Only statement I agree with you on is television.
Hahaha thank you very much. Yeah I wasn't intentionally attacking the U.S. and I apoligise for it being offensive at all. I figure if you don't argue in a civil manner then it just turns into a slugging match but I'm afraid i got carried away. I think I only mentioned the U.S in regards to their casualties during war (which i believe is due to there methods) and their gun laws. Glad you enjoyed the postSnowalker said:
Sooo because we aren't blowing away some other country in a pointless war or aren't blowing each other away for trivial reasons because of our gun control, our country is boring. If you want entertainment, how about getting off the computer and seeing what's out there? Did you know that we've got one of the most diverse landscapes on the planet? And we have history. I'm pretty sure the indigenous Australians would have a lot to say about that (if anyone stopped to ask them). They were here a lot longer before my ancestors came along and screwed them over. And Drop Bears are interesting... for scaring clueless tourists.
If you wanted more spice in your life I'd suggest go join a fight club however I suspect you could barely afford losing the braincells. Not a day goes by where I don't wake up and be thankful that I was lucky enough to be born here. We have it really good in comparison to other places.
Oh and last time I checked our dollar was equal to 91 US cents so it's not that bad. We're getting owned by the GBP and Euro though.
