I got reminded of the funniest video series I ever saw thanks to John Freeman earlier today. Here's the starter video:

How to Talk Australians - Episode 1: ‘G’DAY KNACKERS’

Finally you richardheads can stop acting like a pair of budgie-smuglers and start shaking the sauce bottle like a true green 'n' gold bushwhacker.

So just don't stop loving swearing like a stupid cunt edgy eight-year-old twat?

Pretty off topic but what is with this forum and calling things "edgy"? I've never heard the term anywhere as much as here.

You were doing great up to here...

...and then you turned in to the traditional head-shoved-up-a-date yank.

Some people believe that being honest and speaking freely = being a massive richardhead who is purposely trying to appear like they're on the fringe of society.

Blocky thinks he's a funny firecracker. Just let him pass and eventually he'll return to the dunny known as obscurity.

As a American i can't be around my Australian friend for more than a few seconds before his accent literally starts seeping into my own. That's probably because i already speak in a rustic southern drawl anyway. He's found multiple ways to make me say wack stuff in public.

Have an Aunt who is Ukrainian with a thick accent who speaks Russian and Ukrainian, have a southern Drawl, and can properly pronounce French dialect. My voice is a mix of weird assortments

I know that feeling, except there's no aussie people around where I live (besides my dad who's been here twenty years and most of his accent is gone), it's more noticeable when we visit his side of the family in Australia.
Also my accent is normally not actually a southern drawl so it's really really weird.
