  • You probably learnt a bit of French, German or Japanese at high school but everyone speaks English nowadays, so what's the point of learning foreign languages?
  • The date comes before the month: 6/2/1840, and you know what happened on that date.
  • You used to hear about the military only when the wings fell off their planes or the Army couldn't shoot a wild dog. Now you get touching images of peacekeepers in a place you couldn't find on the map.
  • The nationality people most often makes jokes about is the Australians.
  • The only times when it's acceptable to show up at someone's place without prior arrangement are when you've had a car accident or your spouse has thrown you out of the house.

Nearly every single one of them is true, even for aussies.
ill edit in more later.
