In short, not unlike your average Texan.

Seriously, I don't think I've ever met a full on stereotyped Aussie ( praise Cthulhu )
We're a bizarre clash of cultures and habits. About the only thing I think that 99% of all Aussies do is bet on the Melbourne Cup ....

Pangur as a typical Aussie ??? ( not likely !! )

Hates most sport, especially all versions of football.
Rarely, if ever, drinks beer.
Not a trace of suntan.
Long hair, bound in a ponytail.
Says "Greetings and salutations" instead of "G'day, mate"
