8:20 They made a stupid rule about banning mobile phones (It was called "Off And Away, All Day") in public schools here in WA back in 2020. They announced it and tried it out in late 2019, and next year it was in effect. My school did take it somewhat seriously, but besically no student was having it. All we would have to do is go into the toilets if we wanted to check our phones. Also, the people running the DoE here who decided to have the rule in the first place didn't bother to consider that people can just put SIMs or hotspot their iPads, which can do basically the same thing as a phone lmao. The whole purpose of the rule was to get students to socialise more, which is ironic, because when the pandemic hit in early 2020 we were told to social distance. Later that year our principal said something like "Going into the toilets to check your phones is not appropirate" at an assembly, we were internally like yeah whatever bla bla bla. I graduated HS 2 years ago and came back to visit, nobody seems to care at all, phones in plain sight as far as the eye can see.

I always wanted to go to Australia, but finding out you don’t celebrate Halloween makes me think your ratio of spooky women to non spooky women is unacceptable.
It's a real toss up if your neighbourhood is Halloween friendly or not down here. One of the biggest factors is the heat. If it's too hot then no one is walking around in a costume for melted chocolate.
@@sandrosliske also if you have the misfortune of moving into an ultra-conservative area. i got accused of being a satanist about to sacrifice goats when we invited another kid to our hallowe'en party (confusing thing to be yelled at about at 8 lol) the dying grass does give some quasi-autumn aesthetics though at least!

Fun fact Australia was the only country in history to have ever conquered the fortress of Bathsheba not even Alexander the Great could conquer The Fortress yet we did it although it was probably because the horses were dehydrated and could smell the water in the Fortress and just would not stop running for nothing but you know we still won
Oi! Ipswich has a new public area, it's got almost 33% of the shops filled now. That's a vast improvement compared to the, like, 5 shops a few years ago.

Can't help but share because of the mushroom story: In my country, the traditional Sunday lunch will usually include two types of soup, beef and mushroom. You can say "To all those eating beef soup, bon appetite. To all those eating the mushroom one, good luck!"
I keep forgetting Australia has wildly different possoms than the US. I know North American and European badgers are fairly different, but the possoms are night and day.
13:22 Yes, that is ENTIRELY too much. I am in recovery (from substance abuse). I’m clean and sober, but I knew things were getting out of hand when I was going through a bottle of vodka a week. When I hit the peak (or depth) of my using, I was drink a full bottle of vodka a day (or a handle - 1.75L every other day). I wasn’t getting fall done drunk or blacking out, but my memory wasn’t great and went Into big time withdrawal when I stopped.
To be fair on the Aussie vs States comparison, keep in mind, it’s averaged, and we own Alaska. We also have a place that’s literally called ‘Death Valley’
2:15 jack how did you not get this one its obvs red bin week and they want their yellow bin emptied instead. anyway palm fronds go in the green bin which gets taken every week so idk whats goin on

Australian dollar bills of different values being different colors made me think of how all the members of a Super Sentai/Power Rangers team are all in different colored suits but that's actually pretty awesome and the varied designs makes them easier to differentiate as opposed to here in the US where you have pale green and black, pale green and black, pale green and black, pale green and black, and pale green and black with a newer variant that has a thin holographic strip of plastic on one side.
Just want to clarify. At around 9:00. I am friends with her son (one of the kids mentioned!) I asked him about this, he said they were already planning to go to a movie, independently. Their mum had nothing to do with it. If you think I'm lying about knowing her son, that's fine. But I literally have his phone number, and I met his mum before the incident when he moved to my school.
oh god not the vegemite cadbury monstrosity- the manager of our local woolies tricked my mum and me into eating it, saying they were salted caramel. first time i'd tasted vegemite in over a decade, gonna be the last time ever if i can help it vegemite and chocolate are just...... no. just no.
yeah, queensland is big, but have you ever been on a bus from Perth to Karratha? 20 hrs man, and that's travelling through the night!! Even longer with Greyhound or Integrity from Perth to the top of WA & into NT
Most of these I'm on board with as a Kiwi, but I absolutely will fight you on the money thing. Your Aussie notes are clearly inferior to our Kiwi ones. We have birds on the back of ours.
