Doe sit bother you that America thinks everyone in your country is a clone of Steve Irwin or Crocodile Dundee? Or do you even care what we think?
Nature chasnnels would have us believe that Australia is swarming with snakes and spiders that will kill you in minutes. Are Funnel webs, redbacks, sea wasps, blue ringed octopuses and all those wonderful snakes really THAT big a problem?
From the UK:
Is being referred to as a "Brit" offensive?
Have you ever referred to America as "The Colonies"?
How do you feel about the idea of a monarchy?
Would you say people over there generally see Americans as ignorant?
Does it drive you nuts that Americans get self-righteous about our use of your language?
Why is it that English people are always portrayed as hating the french?
From Canada:
Do you ever feel as if you are in competition with America over anything?

From the South (US):
Do some southerners really think they won the civil war?
If you are one of them, does it piss you off that we think we did?
Is it aggravating that people not from the south sometimes assume that everyone down there is a redneck?
Is it obvious to you when someone not from the south tries to speak with a southern accent?
Do you pronounce pecan "peh-cahn" or "pee-can"?
Is Incest Best ?
