it being over a month into spring.

Do Australian calendars run faster than ours in the U.S.?

We're not quite three weeks into autumn up here - how do they get to be over a month into spring?

The earth's rotation is faster down under. This is because their toilets flush in a different direction.

Because in the Southern Hemisphere we manage to be punctual and start our seasons on the first day of the month, not three weeks later.
