What is the "European food?" Is that just a squid leg?

Down under, you need to get s'naked to go though

Americans will drive a 5.3 litre V8 and then complain about the cost of gas.
CheesyComestibles
Apparently I'm the only one that doesn't understand how European toilets work. Is that a shelf in the bowl?
Daemencer
Most french toilets look like the last one without the snake.
batteryforeverlow
I live in FL and check the toilet before I sit down every time.
MagicOrpheus310
Shame Australia doesn't make cars...
theomni
I parked my car next to some new pickup the other day and the hood was the same height as the roof of my car. Shit is crazy.
PeteThePerv
American toilets are giant troughs. For years I wondered how women were falling in toilets. Then I saw them. Could drown a grown man in them
Trustrup
Also explains how you dunk someones head in the water, I never got that as a kid.

Some aissie cars are dope, but the steering wheel is on the wrong side.
shamoolie
Is that Alf Stewart in the ute ?!

Unfortunately, as an Australian I have to agree that these memes are correct.

Didnt clarkson drive that background tiny car around the BBC offices once?

Yep.

Fucking Aussies nicking Pies and claiming its theirs, Countries only been ‘there’ since 1800’s
TankTrain
1. We took them and actually made them edible. 2. The country's been around for 40-50k years. It existed before white people found it.
Rimbox
Yes i meant ‘Australia’ as you know it now, White pie eating, thong wearing, frisbee throwing BBQ eating hipsters

American photo's are right, European photo's are a joke
hoopsnek
The whole post is a joke, mate. If you have some better ideas for European photos, post 'em up.

You can’t flush a huntsman away, that MF will swim it’s way back and drop on your face while you’re sleeping.
MisspentYouth333
They are called huntsman for a reason. This legitimately happened to me, I was so scared.
MuffinMan5666
Australians already living the apocalypse
OGServersNET
Do you guys use mosquito nets?
MisspentYouth333
Nope, not necessary where I live
OGServersNET
So you have huntsman spiders and no mosquito nets? radical
AllMyOpinionSuck
And today I learned I am the only human being who has empathy for spiders. No animal no matter how nasty deserves death by drowning.
Nexus159
That opinion didn't suck, and don't worry, all the other empaths just ball up the feelings until they all come out at once.

i also said 'noooooooooo ;-;' but then i got better when i remembered it will definitely survive and murder that person

I’d love a proper Ozzie ute
AnExcellentComment
Shame they’re all gone
CheeseIsNaturesFudge
If you're in USA there's a company called rhd utes (ors something like that) converting them.
jbcars4life
we had utes in US for years that were popular and then they took them away and that's just an utter shame. The El Camino and Ranchero.
BeachsideBarghest
Best decision I ever made was buying my Toyota Hilux Workmate. Absolute rippah of a Ute
TankTrain
If I could get one that's a dual cab without being a massive yank tank, I'd buy it tomorrow.
hoopsnek
You can. It's called a Holden crewman. They come in many flavours too. This one's a styleside with an LS.
TankTrain
I want a new one. :'(
mantamaya
My first car when I was 17 was my dad’s old 1996 XH Falcon Longreach Ute. I loved that car.
hoopsnek
They're great. Especially the HSV Maloo.
Starhaven350
Was that the one on the top gear?
CaptainSpankyPants
Yes
ababyzarmholdinganapple
Nice.When I worked there 25 years ago we thought how cool it would be to bring one of those el camino style cars back to the states with us.
rendragnet
Yeah they’re awesome.. until it rains and then pushbikes are beating you off the lights ?
keggyfulabier
There’s nothing as good as getting beat off at the lights
RobJenkins
Pie floater sounds ridiculous
hoopsnek
That’s because you’re sober.
Tesseract09
It sounds ridiculous to most Australians. I only heard about it from something parodying us.
CaptainSpankyPants
Pie floaters are legit, very popular in Adelaide. Pepper need pie in pea and ham soup *Chef kiss*
Tesseract09
I'm still not convinced we didn't just invent it to mess with foreigners. Then it caught on.
CaptainSpankyPants
I'm pretty sure the entirety of Australia was invented to mess with foreigners
Tesseract09
That's just a myth to mess with foreigners. All the stories are genuine.
Lulabel73
They’re popular in Adelaide. That explains a lot.
MisspentYouth333
I live in Adelaide and haven’t even seen one, I’m not sure where in Adelaide you need to go to get one
zedpower1
Yeah, after moving to UK from eastern europe I started to question why we need a poop shelf in the toilets.
Mithi
To inspect the feces for parasite or blood. (I'm not kidding)
Choe8
As a swede I've never seen the middle toilet anywhere here.
wander01
lol. Its space saving compared to the splashy ones. Under the poopshelf theres the plumbing curves. Better in small spaces. Its also for /1
wander01
when the plumbing comes from the floor, not from the wall.
Trustrup
As a Dane, our toilets looks like the Australian ones, on all my travels in Europe I’ve never seen one significantly different either.
zedpower1
you can definitely find the one in the middle in Hungary
Trustrup
Must admit my Eastern European journeys have been restricted to fairly few specifc places in Bulgaria, and Romania.
SonderingStrike
European cars are designed for small streets, American cars are designed for small egos
TheWombatStrikesAgain
American cars are designed around the willingness to fuck up entire countries just to get cheap oil.
GadenKerensky
And Australian cars were designed for working on the farm and going to the church.
beastlysunismyname
I was in US for 6 months and did not see single large pickup. And i was in AZ which i thought will be full of them
Infamousprevert
How??
beastlysunismyname
I dont know. Like i seen Silverados and Trailblazers but those i can see in EU as well (same size as Navara) and sh*tload of Civics
clarkWhogotsanity
You weren't in redneck AZ then
StumpyToe
And smol PPs
aThingWithTheStufAndTheJunk
European cars are small and yet somehow they tend to have more room for the people inside them. I can't sit up straight in a 1/
aThingWithTheStufAndTheJunk
Grand Cherokee but I can in an Opel Zafira. That's fucked up. I ended up doing a lot of research on headroom, shoulder room, etc. 2/
aThingWithTheStufAndTheJunk
and ended up with a Honda Fit based on those parameters alone. Japanese- and European-style cars are much more driver-friendly. To 3/
aThingWithTheStufAndTheJunk
an insane degree.
Filanwizard
and wide interstates. Most mid to long range drives for Americans are on our interstate system(Autobahn or Motorway if you wish)
Filanwizard
for the freeway you want a land yacht or if buying Euro a GT car, As lots of GT cars have handling but still are good for a long drive.
Closetnuzzlepuzzla
And Australian cars are just... nonexistent since the government stopped subsidising the industry.
jscuster
‘Merican cars are designed for being able to live in them after you get evicted because you couldn’t pay your rent.
SocoFox
American cars were designed for large roads in wide open spaces and a culture that revolved around cars. Like that saying where Europeans >
Sheldonian
No, cars in America were designed to sell an American lifestyle that the car industry could make a lot of money from it
SocoFox
> think 200 miles (321km) is far and Americans think 200 years is old, cars had very different uses (and usability) in Europe vs. USA. >
SocoFox
> European cars were about the actual act of driving, while American cars were about closing distance.
whatsisname
No, cars in America are designed as lifestyle accessories.
zanaria
Don't you mean big egos?
SonderingStrike
Honestly I noticed as soon as I posted it, I'm surprised nobody else picked up on it.
zanaria
You probably got mixed up between small PPs and big egos.
dudethisbetternotbetaken
I live in an area with lots of snow. I need a high wheel base and 4wd to get to work safely during winter. It depends on where you live.
GhostOfPierceHawthorne
Australian cars were designed for circle work.
GreenMnM
Hey! American here and I take extreme offense to this. Not bc its mean, but bc its true!
Yasashii93
Ha! "Egos"
demosteness
American cars are designed for oil business
HiVizDiver
Was just in Genoa Italy and saw a full-sized Ford F-150 driving down the street. It was absurd how out of place it looked.

Speaking as An American with a Chrysler 300... you're not wrong. BUT, rebuttal: Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Mercedes-Benz, And all the supercars.
BillHubbard
Specially designed for the American market by overseas manufacturers.
CannaFreak
One is not like the others
cr4ckp0t2
Are you really comparing a Chrysler to a Bentley? As for Mercs, they are all over the place where I live, nothing special.
MarauderPilot
They're obviously not the same quality level but they exist in vaguely the same category and dimensions
Ryanator50
what makes a car a supercar? the speed at which it can go? how comfortable the handling is? the size and quantity of the cup holders?
trasneoir
200k-500k pricetag, capable of being driven by civillians, and extreme (stock) top speed - typically 200mph+
trasneoir
Some creature comfort is probably essential (a WRC car wouldn't qualify). Speed is definately essential (a Toyota Century wouldn't qualify)
whatsisname
Supercars are defined by whether it's a rich persons toy, that's it.
ProudAussie
The money that a rich person will happily fork out for it to show off to the plebs.
BurntRamen
It's the capes.
zeroisnothing
No Capes!!
BurntRamen
Welcome to Civil War 2.0.
NoCharge
Traditionally a supercar is one that can reach speeds of access of 200mph
beastlysunismyname
Supercars are the barely legal section in automotive industry. Or one mod short of being illegal for driving on public roads (race car)
clarkWhogotsanity
Lack of cup holders and speed basically
BaconBoy7
Aussies eat Vegemite on toast lol nothing right about that
PhilKenSebban
You need butter first then a light coating of Vegemite. It's not Nutella, more isnt better. Think heroin, a little is good, too much kills u
hoopsnek
Keeps the mozzies off
ElDrmm
But you gotta eat it thick to keep the Burrowups away
tac0486
As a human: "I respect your decisions". But as and Australian: "Shut your whore mouth!"
Gifwrapped
It is particularly good with smashed avo on top.
dazlar
Check out Amanda Palmers vegemite song https://m.youtube.com/watch?reload=9&v=fVKPrQv1H8I
WhatBackWaterCountry
And kiwis. It delicious if you know how much to use. Too much is gross.
allibaster12
It's
allunna
I agree. Marmite is the superior toast accompaniment.
TheSilverSeraph
You have to use the right amount. People who don’t know slather it on like peanut butter. You use the thinnest of smears
TheFutureIsShitJustLikeThePast
There is no right amount. Only NZ marmite is right.
thechelonianshelmet
Sorry, but no, the correct amount of Vegemite is identical to that of the Curious Squid, chefs train for years to get this just right.
prodmerc
I tried it wondering what it's all about - it makes the bread taste somewhat like rye sourdough.
Penelelop
Yes, with cheese and in the oven. But I’m a kiwi lol
BaconBoy7
Lol my dad lived in Melbourne for a few years, he taught me right.. still not for me. Pavlova though...
TheSilverSeraph
Totally agree. Pavlova is wonderful
