Am trying to be fair and impartial here, but have had to miss out many minor countries...well cannot possibly include them all.

Am trying to be fair and impartial here, but have had to miss out many minor countries...well cannot possibly include them all.
I was about to vote for "DennisLand" but I forgot that it's only a country in my imagination after I've been http://www.vbforums.com/
kedaland is being ignored too, i c.
Only 3 of them are countries. Not much choice is it now?
Three??.. just two are countries .. Australia and New Zealand .. South Island and North Islanda are parts of new zealand and the rest are provinces of aus
Anyway.. if i'm not in the patriotic mood then i always think Australia is the best country to live in.. I had an attraction towards it since i was a kid.. dunno why
well i counted Taz as well. allthough you're right it is part of aus.
THE ONE YOUR LIVING IN AT THE MOMENT!!!
No Arrogant aussie crap here!
As stated could only include a certain number of countries...and okay maybe only having two countries was a bit too over the top...though we would argue that Tasmania is a third Country.Quote:

What about the island of Tomexxus?
Famous as a site for French nuclear testing and as an alternative to Fire Island:rolleyes:Quote:

Sorry, had to vote New Zealand.
Top Ten Reasons:
10 - Never heard anything bad about Old Zealand
9 - Australia may be nice, but everything is upside down. What's down with that?
8 - Lord of the Rings
7 - Can't say as I have much of an affinity for sheep, but it has got to be better than koala.
6 - Fellowship of the Ring
5 - Didn't they film Hercules there? Landscape was pretty.
4 - The Two Towers
3 - They didn't film Mad Max there, landscape was pretty.
2 - Return of the King
1 - Renée O'Conner
I notice that the voting is neck and neck between Aus and NZ with 2 each. I'm willing to sell my casting vote to tip the balance.
We'll start the bidding at one (attractive) sheep (not some ugly one that you happen to have picked up when you were drunk).
Fatal flaw in that aurgument, they're in the same region (next to each other geographically)Quote:

Well, New Zealand is closer to the equator, and I'd hope more temperate. But that is beside the point. We don't call New Zealand "The Land Down Under". It is a play on that, not a true statement of orientation. After all, up is just the oppisite of the the pull from the gravity well. Up is radial.Quote:

Aside from that, there are several things are backwards, but are solar or spin related. Toilets flush backwards. Sun dials run backwards. And magic circles have to be made backwards. And your calendar is half a year off (their winter solstice is during our summer solstice and vice versa).
:)
No it isn't! NZ is muh further from the equator. It's off to the south east of Aus.Quote:

*checks map*
D'oh!
My mind was placing New Zealand as an island pair north of Australia, near the Phillipine islands.
Wow... that sucks. Bet it gets cold there.
Eh... screw it. I'll see the Tolkien movies when they hit the theater, and I think O'Conner is married.
Kiwiland sucks.
So... there is a nice opera house? Mmmm...
Actually Australia is a small island off the west coast of NZ.Quote:

Yes it could freeze the balls of a brass monkey. Thats why men in nz are men and so are the women
They employed the NZ army as extras, (probably saved on makeup).
Yeah we got an Opera House, and a Harbour Bridge, and phones and everything. And don't worry Funnel Webs only come out at night.....mainly:eek:

What Dolly not good enough for you
Aha, I See that my price of a pretty sheep is too high for both Ozzies and Kiwi's. I'm a reasonable man.
I'll sell my vote for an ugly skank of a sheep, as long as you throw in enough beer to make her look pretty. And when I say beer I am not refering to either Fosters or XXXX, both of which are an abomination on the world and should be sent to France in retaliation for dropping nuclear bombs on your doorstep. Although, it could be argued that sending them the "lager" is against the Geneva convention.
Personally I like Tasmania. Any island that looks like a clump of womens pubic hair is alright in my book. Not to mention Taz the Tasmanian devil!
Cheers,
SD
We ship you a container of Swan lager *shudder* and you can have Tasmania.
Wasn't Errol Flynn from Tasmania? Any country that can claim him has my vote!!!!......one of the sexiest men ever!

Sean Connery is from Tasmania as well? You learn new things everyday.Quote:

Sean Connery is Welsh........Errol Flynn is Tasmanian and Mel Gibson...my other dream is from Australia!
Jethro is from Never-never land and so am I.....a coincidence......I don't think so:rolleyes:
........Tasmanians like to keep it in the family:eek: Alot like Mormans l guess.
Hehehe....just my luck!!!!
Night all!!!!!!
:eek::eek:OH MY LORD:eek::eek:, don't go to scotland and say that!! He is SCOTTISH. 100 beatings from some mad kilt-wearer for saying he's welsh........although if we didn't insist on splitting a small country into even smaller one's he'd be British.Quote:

I'm sorry, I've just fallen off my chair. We don't have many famous (living) Scottish people in the world, about the only one is old Sean. (No Rod Stewart doesn't count).
Admitedly I've never heard anyone in Scotland speak with Sean's accent (except when immitating him - Yesh, Mish Moneypenny. Ah, Pushy Galore).
As for chrisjk, don't worry, he's still British as well. I'm a Scot, and I also consider myself British.
Cheers,
SD
P.S. If anyone dares to mention the Bay City Rollers I'll be round to their door in a jiffy and wash their mouths out with the aforementioned Swan Lager.

You mean to say that europe/usa etc etc. are upside down to us?
Does anyone remember the ozzie fellow who released a picture of oz and nz bieng on top of the world. Smart chappy!
FOSTERS
No-one in Australia or NZ drinks fosters or xxxx(except qld) try VB/Emu or Coopers there's a good brew!
I thought fosters went broke thats how much we don't even see it!
Sheep
Ha. Koalas are much better tasting!
Well that is jolly decent of you, but many of your compatriots don't see it like that. Neither do the Welsh come to think of it....NATIONAL RIOT!!!! (as if we need another one)Quote:

What you doing in Canada then...couldn't stand the bad impressions of Sean?! :D
what about my little country, Portugal
great sun, great women, great wine, great food
we all live in peace... no war, no bombs, just work in the day and have fun all night...
i invite all u guys to visit this little country in the hollidays
I'm having great fun in Canada. Cheap cost of living, great snow for ski-ing in the winter, nice hot summers.
We were thinking of immigrating to Oz or Canada, and then we found out that 9 of the 10 most deadliest animals/insects/arachnoids live in Oz, not to mention Neighbours, Fosters (although aparently that scourge has been eliminated), the Minogues' (don't get me wrong, I'd give Kylie one at the drop of a hat, but she does have an awfully annoying whine), Rolph Harris and his 6 white boomers etc.
So we picked Canada, although they do have Country & Western music here, so it was a close call between 9 deadly creatures or Tammy Wannet.
Mind you, Oz did give us Paul Hogan, so thats a point in it's favour.
I can't really think of anything famous from NZ. I do have a bunch of Kiwi mates who I drink with regularly, and they are all great guys and gals.
Also when I went for the preliminary immigration interview for Oz, the consulate asked me if I had a criminal record. I replied that I didn't know it was still a requirement to get into the country. He threw me out.
I'm sorry, I know it's an old joke, but I couldn't resist it!
Have fun,
SD
...ok the Minoques are two of the most deaily creatures in the world, but we exported them to England where they belong....we should be so lucky, lucky, lucky.
Say gudday to your kiwi mates for me and tell them to put the house on the Hurricanes...the capital city boys are coming back:eek:
I care not... For I live in ChrisWorld where everything is green! :)
My apologies for the Sean Connery error..............send him over and I'll apologize in person!
Well... wasn't Mel Gibson born in New York? Where his parents American or Australian?
If you're right send him over too. I'll have to do a double apology!
I must aplogise to all Ozzie's. How could I forget Elle McPherson.... and the swingometer swings back into Australia's favour.
Oh Yeah! And Is Dame Kiri Tiki Wiki Wana or whatever Kiwi or Ozzie? She was great singing "The world in union" anthem for the rugby world cup a few years ago. And on the subject of rugby, NZ loses a few points for having Lumo. Look, I know Scotland doesn't have the best rugby team at present, but does he have to make it look so easy when he runs through our defenses????
As for sending Sean and Mel over to you Barrk, I'm not at liberty to give out their home phone numbers, but my mate Fat Bazza from the pub reckons he can do a pretty good Sean Connery impression. He says he'll come over if you send him plane tickets, feed him beer and keep him in fish & chips.
Oh, but no sudden movements, he's never been the same since they let him out of that asylum... sorry I mean Hospital. Oh, yeah, and don't give him any sharp objects (thats why he does most of his correspondence in crayon).
Cheers,
SD
LOL SurfDemon...
I appreciate the offer but I think I'll pass........:rolleyes:
Well send him over here then...I need some violence to spice up my existence :rolleyes:
I can't imagine why you'd want someone named Fat Bazza to spice up your life, Parksie and I'm probably better off not Knowing:rolleyes:
I wouldn't want Fat Bazza, but Bulla would be cool.
Kiri is a kiwi of course.
Chris
Please don't tell me you work for the local Postal Service.
Hey maybe Katie could have the Minoque kiddies as well....the signs of relief would be auditable from both England and Australia.....while we are at it she could also take Bardot.
Ok, okay no fair......who the hell are the Minoquet twins?
Bardot..as in Bridgette? No thanks.
Afraid not. Why?? Royal Mail?? Must be joking.Quote:

AHHH, post replacements!!!
Kylie and Danni Minoque. Danni is "partner" of Jacque Villeneuve (you know who he is right??). They have been in Neighbours (dodgy Aus TV prog) and they keep coming over her to kill us with their voices and/or pantoQuote:

No, Bardot as in dodgy (is everything from Aus dodgy??) pop group from that TV series Popstars. Our version are call ed Hear'Say and they stink.Quote:
Bardot..as in Bridgette? No thanks
Sorry Chris...I don't know who Villanueve is either. Sounds painful though........backstreet girls type stuff maybe???
Well he comes from your neck of the woods (Canada actually but nevermind). Famous F1 driver...son of Gilles...Montreal Race Circuit named after him...oh wellQuote:

It doesn't sound like I've missed much then.....anyway....why not send them over here....we seem to be the dumping ground for idiots....we even elected on president:rolleyes:
The scary thing is, you may just vote one of them president :D.
Kylie + Danni's election promises:
* Blonde bimbo's will get equal rights
* Breast enlargements to be made free
* Tax the rich to give to them
* All "cute" racing drivers with dodgy beards to be made whitehouse interns
* Oval office to be made into giant pool (to play with her lucky rubber ducky)
* Appearance in pantomines to become a legal requirement for a driving licence
* Good music to be banned.
Nope......they sound too intelligent to be our president
Hey...anything's better than coursework :rolleyes:Quote:

Gee thanks.........looks like there's a lot of "talent" there!
Don't mock!! Danni can knock you out at 50 paces :)
Wonderful stuff silicone:rolleyes:
After exporting them to England, it actually increased the average IQ levels in both counties:rolleyes:Quote:

Could you please refrain from putting up shoots of your bedroom posters here. I am only pleased that you avoided the Ricky Martin one over your bed. Blame your mum putting a web cam in your room. Though l do think you could maybe change those yellow looking jockey junior y-fronts.:)
.)Oh but i love Ricky.. can I keep just him. I'd like to see my mum do that, she doesn't even know what a web cam is!! And leave my yellow y-fronts out of this. They're a present from my auntie mildred (the fact I don't have an auntie mildred is besides the point)Quote:

OK. I'm in shock. When I left Britain Danni was some barely pubesent, flat chested wannabe. She's certainly turned into a cutie. So, if we could just do something about the voices (i.e. their accents, not the voices in my head), their acting and singing.

Mind you, you think her big sister would buy her some new clothes. The poor lass is bursting out of that shirt she's wearing.
