Are we really that bad, Kiwiland?

Calling anybody Australian is pretty rude

Not as offensive as asking if they're C*nadian.

Leafs are okay except for quebec, Australia is the country version of a special needs classroom.

We really really like getting noticed.
Everybody asks if we're Australian not just Americans.

I did this once in Bryce Canyon National Park

>what part of New Zealand are you from?
>how did you...
>*smile*
>*literally shaking* no, really, how did you know?

But your accent is very distinct. I've met Australians who could be indistinguishable from an east-coast Englishman.

kiwi is closer to british than aussie,
australian is like nails on a chalkboard
kiwis talk like theyre perpetually asking a question

>meet New Zealander
>do an underarm bowl against him
>he starts crying

We get really excited when foreigners give us attention. Last week on the news there was entire segment about some US talk show host mentioning us (That, and buying some property here)

Tfw I'm unable to distinguish accents in English yet
Sorry kiwibros ;_;

What kind of accents are there in Russia?

If you mean ethnic Russians there are:
Northern (with accent on O and pretty slow)
Southern (they say G like GH and have loner vowels)
Muscovite (with accent on A, pretty fast)
Russians of Urals, Siberia and Far East don't have noticeable difference

If you mean other ethnicities, there are plenty

its fine, even british people cant tell the difference between their accents. well done on being less autistic than 99.9% of Sup Forums and managing to read his face though.

I want to cum inside a New Zealandian girl's vagina so badly.

Rude!

>notice womans accent
>ask if she's from South Africa
>she says Zimbabwe
>I say 'You mean Rhodesia'
>she gives me a knowing smile

Never understood why kiwis always get mixed up with us. Completely distinct accents. They sound more South African than Australian.

>I say 'You mean Rhodesia'

I know what you mean. I can understand not being able to pick a Western or South Australian accent from an eastern state one, but New Zealand's accent has fundamental differences in vowel sounds.
