Not to long ago I wrote a few things on the subject of Aussie beer.
Well, 
during the Olympics, Fosters had this ad trying to encourage Aussies
to drink 
Fosters by defining what it is to be an Aussie. Below is the Fosters
ad and 
what I call 'The Real Aussie Ad'.

Fosters Ad

I don't have a kangaroo for a pet
I don't wrestle with crocodiles
And I don't wear a corked hat.
I fight wars
But never start wars
I'd rather make peace.
I can wear my countries flag with pride
I am a rock
I am the island continent.
My brothers are the Smiths, the Wilsons, the Santerellis, the De
Costis, the 
Wongs and the Jagamarras.
I play football without a helmet
I like beetroot on my hamburger
I ride in the front seat of a taxi
I believe it's a prawn, not a shrimp
I believe the world is round and Down Under is on top
I believe that Australia is the best address on Earth
And Australians brew the best beer.....

The Real Aussie Ad

I ate my pet kangaroo
I am shit scared of crocodiles
And I wear a baseball cap.
I love Star Wars
And the Wookie is my favourite.
I would rather get pissed
And watch someone else carry my countries flag with pride.
I like to rock
To Billy Ocean
I am blind to my incompetence
My brothers are the Smiths, the Wilsons, and that creepy bloody
weirdo down 
the street.
I watch football with a tinnie
I take the beetroot off my hamburger and throw McDonalds pickles on
windows.
I do runners from taxis
I believe the world is flat
And Australia is fucking miles from anywhere
I believe Australia has the best address on Earth
And Australians brew the best beer on Earth
And that's why we never touch Fosters.....
