i will willingly accept most forms of australia slander. cursed country. however the “naur” meme cracks me up because like a significant part of the australian accent is that it is non-rhotic. we drop rs from every damn thing. i don’t know how to even say “naur”. americans hear a dipthong (sometimes more than one in a two letter word lmao) and assume it’s an R because their accent includes terminal Rs and ours doesn’t. get your shitty joke correct. the way we say it is funny! you’re just incorrect about why!
