The marriage things true. My first wife is Japanese, wanted both cultural weddings in Australia & Japan (guess how much a wedding Kimono costs?). Then her younger sister got married, to a man 9yrs older than me (yep, that) - Wanted the same thing! My father-in-law and I just went and got drunk. Then my brother-in-law rocks up "Why did we do this!" - We nearly spat our beer all over the bar! 😆

As a proud Aussie, I thank all you wonderful Americans who love my country, even those who haven’t visited yet. You are more than welcome to come see us.👍. I’ve been to the States a couple of times and loved every second. ❤❤
Well, sort of @ian59, though with a few rather important distinctions: US Foundational culture derived from the Reformation and its immediate Puritan aftermath (and later its respect for ‘experts’ from its enormous number of C19 German immigrants), while Australia derived it’s Foundational European cultural and political influences from the Enlightenment, consequently giving us much stronger and more critical bullshit detectors than most Americans (according to Robert Hughes); our social values from the Catholic Irish (according to Oliver MacDonagh) as well as the English Non-Conformists (Stuart Piggin); and the concept of Empire Loyalty (similar to Canada and NZ, but demonstrably not the US!!) as it was just entering its greatest Imperial phase (according to Manning Clarke as well as Stuart Macintyre). We more or less share a language as well as a similar material culture, but we’re a very long way apart in fundamental social values: Australians are mostly Communitarian (Liberal/Socialist/Communist according to those very many Americans who are politically illiterate), while the vast majority of Americans believe in the concept of ‘Individualism’. I provide this rather long historical/philosophical ramble because so many Americans seem to see us as their younger cousins: honestly, we really aren’t.
Nope. We are Not sibs. Not cousins. Not family at all. There is very little we have in common apart from our old connections to Britain and the English language. Apart from the British sending their unwanted, unloved, unwashed to our shores. The "New World" got British slaves, convicts and indentured servants along with some military (some quite unsavoury) and a boatload of religious outcasts. We got convicts and the military.
Try being from Scotland got spoiled rotting in America, tho had to keep talking to peoples aunties on the phone so’s they knew the visitor was Scots. 😊🏴🇺🇸
New Zealand loves the us- at least a few years ago…new zealand watch more American movies per capital- I think 4-6 per person per month. And Canadians used to import more American cars then anyone else. But I don’t know about now. Three weddings sounds like a nightmare
We watch a lot of American movies here in NZ but we also understand how screwed the US truly is and don't have much time for loud and rowdy. We also know our cultural differences don't align.
Ozzie's love the people of America, yet we despise your government and I despise Australian government. That's what we have in common. Love of God,family and country. God Bless you all. Amen
@@11kungfu11 - If you're going to gatekeep about how Australians should look, you would surely use the aborigines as the template. After all, they beat all the other nationalities here by tens of thousands of years. I mean, you're saying someone born in Melbourne isn't Australian because... why?
Ronnie may not have visited Sydney or Melbourne recently, but 'white' people probably won't be the first thing Americans see in either city, and English will fade into the mix as soon as you clear Immigration. Brisbane is a better option if that's your thing and it's ONLY 7,200 air miles from San Diego ;)
Funny - an Asian woman on TikTok said there is more social mixing in Brisbane than in Sydney. She says in Sydney it's either an Asian woman with an old white dude, or the rest of the Asians are in the Asian part of town. Maybe she was in the Eastern suburbs. Downtown Sydney you'll see a lot of mixture, but maybe not socialising; just walking down the street.
@@JamesLamb many of the people in the CBD are students - and that holds in both cities. Technically, they are supposed to go home when they finish their degree but that's a whole other thread.
@@lonnie224, I second that. There is so much Americans do not know about their country's history that its literally not funny. They don't know that Britain sent its convicts to the New World long before they shipped them over here. They don't know that Britain sent ship loads of white British indentured servants ie slaves to the colonies. Most Americans do not know, believe or recognise the Fact that the Spanish were the first Europeans to permanently colonise North America. The first settlement was in Florida, St Augustine. The bottom half of what is now the USA was Spanish, and by default Mexican.
Why he has fully embraced the art of Australian sarcasm from his Aussie wife 🤣🤣🤣
He also lived their for a decade
@@hitmonkey3602 yes, but I’m sure interaction with the wife helped get the nuance lol

it’s the only true way to pick it up.!

He's also an Australian legend
I’m Australian and had to go all over the world to find out we have the best beaches, surf and tropics to extreme cold
We don’t know extreme cold Jen!
We also have lovely animals like drop bears
@@raze263Quiet, you’ll scare the Americans.
I lived in Asia, Europe, and now am living in Australia. Disagree with your statement
Best beaches yes, surf and tropica yes, extreme cold.....Nope...Europe/UK, Canada, Russia, Mongolia etc have extreme cold.
'So fun and cheap' is the best short description of a wedding I've heard.
“ They say the things strangers wouldn’t say to you on the internet “!

first thing my dad said to my sister in-law after not seeing her for a year. 'you've gotten fatter'.
I watched comedy central Africa to watch an Asian guy talk about Americans and how they feel about Australia. Interracial overload. xD

Woohoo, Melbourne represent!
I get this from any country. Japan, Vietnam, Taiwan they all get excited when I say I am Australian.
Asian rellies, wedding troll beast mode 😂💪👺
Weddings are a crazy over-the-top social status symbol for both women and families.
Australia, Canada, New Zealand& USA❤️ing themselves makes sense.
Soooo true having lived in both ✅✅✅
American's love Australia because we're siblings in that we were both born out of England literally exporting the poorer caste.
That's right, we are all aiming to be sophisticated rednecks. I might be a ditch diggers son but I am still classy 😉
You mean the criminal caste.

We love Ronny

After those wedding, Ronnie scrambled to get back on tv and took all the bookings he can get to recoupe his expenses. 😂
What do Australians think of Americans no comment 😂
I feel for you. LOL
Most seem to think Australia is a country in Europe.
Can't say Australians feel the same affection for the Yanks. FREE JULIAN ASSANGE!
Speak for yourself
No , we dont like Americans
Australians have tall poppy syndrome and love the nanny state
Here here.
Love America.. but common guys.
