Yes, they do have a sense of humour (and it is British-influenced no less!), but they don't like it when they are at the receiving end. They can dish out insults at Bush but when Roy and HG start turning the tables it will be WWIII.

Aussies poke fun at everything, including their own culture.

Do you read the 'Globe and Mail'?. It seems that those Canadians are starting to hate Aussies as much as Americans. Below is a sample:

am sorry you have such a distorted view of Canadians.If you read the threads on this website, you would realize that Canadians support peace.Furthermore, our Prime Minister has consistently condemned terrorist acts.I am tempted to alter my view of both Australia and Australians.First I discover that I am unfortunate enough to share genes with a most malicioius and vindictive Australian andnow I read your venomous comments.However, common sense tells me that I should not generalize because of two bad apples out of millions


PS. I have an Aussie colleague who was stupid enough to write a few history essays for a certain Canadian student who looked like bombing out. Now that is plaigirism. Aussies and Americans, and probably Kiwis for that matter, are such suckers.
