I know Strayans banter Americans to death on here, but what is the average Australian's opinion of average Americans in real life? I would love to go to Australia on vacation, but from what I've read it seems Americans have a bad reputation there. If I don't act like the stereotypical socks-and-sandals, jean-shorts, tucked-in-US-flag-shirt wearing American tourist, will I have a better time?

>but from what I've read it seems Americans have a bad reputation there
Americans have bad rep everywhere what are you playing at
I like most of the Americans I meet. They're brash, egotistical and full of confidence that every single human on earth wants to be exactly like them.
But that can be kinda charming in it's own way. They're annoying when they get up on their soapbox and start criticizing your country and just telling you you're wrong, but if they do it with a bit of banter and humour it's cool.
I have had a penpal in Texas for years, top bloke. Full innawoods survival man who does everything by himself.
Up until very recently I used to drink with this bloke from some little place in Illinois, just a bantersaurus rex. Always up for a beer. He thought it was pretty frustrating how flaky and non-commital Australian people are. But he managed to fuck a fair few women while over here.
When I think of a "typical american tourist" I think of that family from In Bruges
Weren't they Canadian?
Also, my best friend here's an exchange student from Perth. It sounds pretty swell over there tbqh.
Nah, the Canadians were the couple in the restaurant.
I think the anti american sentiment was more prevalent in my old man's generation. He banned us from celebrating Halloween and is still very anti american. Most people my age don't really care.
That's good. I remember getting yelled at by some French people for wearing a USA #1 hat when I visited right before Iraq started. I was 7 years old and they gave me a baguette and apologized when I started crying. Anti-americanism hurts
My old man is a 66 year old lefty. He hated the Vietnam war, he hates the hypocrisy of people like Ayn Rand, he hates the rise of the corporation (like Grapes of Wrath sorta thing), he hates funz, he hates the whole blood for oil thing, he hates the culture of suing people because your coffee cup didn't have a warning label on it, the way you guys give climate skeptics so much air time. Those are the sorts of things he thinks about America.
He's not the sort of bloke who would do anything to upset a child, but that is a measure of what you are up against.
>He banned us from celebrating Halloween and is still very anti american.
Boomers in Australia always get buttdevestated about Halloween for some reason.
>hurrr we're getting too Americanised
Despite the fact that Halloween has it's roots in the UK, where the vast majority of our heritage and culture is from.
we had this American exchange student in high school, he left after 3 days because he called fairy floss 'cotton candy' and that became his nickname
it was a harmless nickname but he got so upset about it that the entire school (800 kids) eventually heard he couldn't handle banter
even little 13 year olds in their first year of high school were calling him cotton candy or candy arse and I think the american was like 16 or 17 at the time
americans are a funny bunch
...
Death to Seppos!
Yeah, I love Halloween now
If you are talking to an Aussie in a bar you HAVE TO buy him a beer or be seen as a rude seppo cunt. Don't worry, he will get the next round.
Telling people your country is shit and not acting like the stereotypical American tourist is an effective way to get people on side. It's not that we hate America, but Australians on the whole can't fucking stand proud people.
It depends on where you go. Sydney is probably naturally bad towards all tourists because it's literally tourist capital of Australia and I'd get sick of seeing a gorillion tourists a day. Melbourne seems pretty for tourists, when I was there, they were really good to tourists and having heaps to see and do is a bonus. Any other of the smaller sleepy cities probably wont care that you're American as much as long as you not making an asshole of yourself and are generally nice to people. I mean, George Lucas came to my city, sat in the most busy food court in the CBD and literally like 2 people noticed and no one made a fuss.
>fairy floss
>top fucking kek
Australians get buttblasted by American tourists because they can't handle strong american banter.
And quite frankly they're jealous we come over and effortlessly bang all of their women
>this is american banter
ameriBROS don't banter on the internet because we're too busy snappin necks and cashin checks
This my dad hated when I used the American name for anything, ignore my flag Aus fag here
Why didn't australia like america?
Howling at how bad these bants are
it's mainly the people that inhabit it
Is that really Aussie culture? Man I should move there. I hate the way Americans are pussies. But I do like your grandfather

i like how you have this list ready to go whenever anybody wants to talk about australia. why don't you fix your own country before complaining about ours?
The fact i dont know whether your being ironic just makes it funnier.
Most of the country is apathetic towards most Americans, there is a little leaning to the negative and positive like anywhere or anyone else. If you think it will give you any special privileges or disadvantages, you highly overrate your own opinion and worth!
I'm in the positive side of liking Americans as I was in the military, served alongside them, did 6 months in the US training their grunts and got a bit of a chance to see some of the place.

American """banter""" just comes across desperate and forced. I mean, why wouldn't it? They haven't got a "banter culture".
Runs in the metaphorical family, doesn't it.

we already have multiple states where weed is legal. you tax all legal drugs to shit and weed is still legal everywhere in ur cunt
american men like watching black men fuck their girlfriends.
I'm not trying to be clever. I'm only telling the truth.
>from what I've read it seems Americans have a bad reputation there
You have a bad reputation everywhere, and it's unlikely to ever change.
Just keep being you.
You actually took the time to typed that out, your an absolute madman
Wake up in the morning feeling a need to fart
Grab my gun, I'm out the door; I'm gonna hit this mart
Before I leave, fill my gut with a burger or two
Cause when I shop, I always gotta poo
I'm talking skid marks on my clothes, clothes
Shit running to my toes, toes
People always hold their nose, nose
Muffin-topping, eating our favourite burgers
Rolling on the scooters
Racing all the poopers
Had to shart, in the mart
Really tried to fart
Tonight, Imma binge
Till my belt comes off the hinge
Tick-tock, on the scales
My diet's gonna fail, yes
Most are pretty self-righteous and get a bit offended at the bantz. But overall, pretty top blokes.
I remember going on exchange and hanging out with some african-americans in a college. Pretty funny people desu, and I had some top bantz with them.
Also hung out with some white americans, latino americans and they were top blokes too.
I don't know, maybe I'm just a socialbe kind of bloke, I'm ENTJ after all.
But for the love of god, lighten the fuck up and quit whining and bitching about race.
You're ultimately more divided by class, culture and gender. Get that BLM/ alt-right bullshit sorted out. It's not getting you anywhere.
This fella has a well developed copy-pasta culture

people only like being snide to americans behind their back to be hip, when they come face to face with one they treat them like their best friend and girls drop their panties to flirt
t. worked in an inner city pub that gets a lot of american expats and students
>Australian cuisine
I knew this thread would devolve into dog shit.
You guys are making all Americans look like dog shit.
Thankfully, nobody has ever or ever will give a fuck about Australia, so it doesn't matter if a thread dedicated to them 404s
We do. Australians are loved across the globe while you poofs have to sit in the corner and sulk. kek, stupid yank
We are literally our own continent
wot
I've enjoyed most Americans I've come across and found them friendly as tourist. They like to socialise and interact with us it seems.
Come on by I guess
Most of us like Americans.
You'll probably still get bantered
>what is the average Australian's opinion of average Americans in real life
Everyone hates Americans regardless of whether they've actually met one or not. I'm not sure why.
can't tell if the americans itt are extremely buttblasted, meming or both
Average Aussie pities the yank.
USA is a country filled with non-whites (particularly taco bros and basketball Americans) and much more crime than Aus.
Still funny though.
>suing people because your coffee cup didn't have a warning label on it
Everyone always brings this up as a negative example of the US's litigious culture, but that case was entirely reasonable. The woman only sued for a few thousand in medical bills, because the coffee melted her clothes and gave her third degree burns on her lap and groin. She was unable to walk for years.

>tfw ausGOD on holiday in the usa
I feel as if you retards should know what our accents sound like. Stop asking me where im from

A lot of people can't tell nz from Aus and even Britain sometimes.
>A lot of *Americans can't tell nz from Aus and even Britain sometimes.
Why are Americans so completely accent-deaf?
Australians hate white people though
...
We're only ever exposed to them as British accents. Average American couldn't tell apart the different British accents though.
Most we can tell apart are Scottish/"British"/Irish
Check these dubs
>Most we can tell apart are Scottish/"British"/Irish
I'm glad you highlighted that "British" bit.
I'll tell you a secret. If you ever want to trigger an Englishman, always refer to him as British, particularly if you then always refer to Scots as Scottish.
