A Pommie is Aussie slang for a Briton

I'm not sure if the rest of the world knows this but up to the 1960's Britain sent many of our criminals (or 'crims' as they are known in Australia - notice how the can't manage the full word) to Australia as a punishment. This will give you some idea about how bad it is there. They are all descended from CRIMS!!!!! This has left them with a massive inferiority complex which I think is undeserved because I once met a decent one. Many of them find the need to return to their roots though and can be found sleeping nine to a room and drinking themselves senseless in Earls Court (or Kangaroo Valley as it's known to the locals).

Massive inferiority complex - cricket world cup (wink), Ashes domination (guffaw), The Battle of Upton Park (LMAO) - methinks the author of that comment has drunk one too many Aussie Beers (aka Fosters).
Lanesra, could you be a good chap please, and take care of your brother for us - in his curent state of inebriation I want to make sure he doesn't hurt himself or swallow his tongue or something.
