Australia is the proper model society Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Except for that whole genocide of the Aborignees, Australia seems to have done things better than every one else. Even better than Europe.


Low crime, keeping people from slipping through the cracks, solid economy.

Hot chicks, etc.


I'd hit it.

Just like how rugby is a close second to hockey for cool sports and cricket is a close second to curling for silly sports.

If you're talking about the Tasmanian aborigines, they are still very upset about claims of their extinction in that now infamous documentary about Truganini.
