Goodness, gracious me, no. We are good natured, laid back, "she'll be right- types". You've confused us with Russians.

New world ebola and oldgoatnewkid certainly spun a different tale. Aussie banter is also some of the best in the world. I've insulted people of almost every nationalisty, race and religion. Only the Croat and the Nepali have better comebacks than Aussies.

Where do you think the "White"people in Australia came from?

Prison ships.

People from one country do not know of a word that is used in another country half a wold away? Shocking! That would almost be as if Germans don't know some of the words used in Austria or Switzerland.

That's OK. Us Australians can be a bit cattywampus sometimes. It's not intentional.

[ - ] paul_neri [op] 0 points 3.2 yearsFeb 25, 2022 05:35:29 ago (+0/-0)

Catawampus, meaning “askew, diagonal,” is first recorded in the 1830–40s. Originally, catawampus also meant “fierce.” It's thought to be an American colloquialism influenced by the cater- in cater-cornered (or for many of us, kitty-corner) and wampish, Scottish for “flopping about.”[library service for Australians]
