( dwrp ) PAGING: AUSTRALIANS! Now with Discord! Open to all if you're willing to put up with our uniquely Australian charm 
Plurked from my disused public account, but this is intended as a mingling Plurk for Aussie RPers. (You can blame palkia, she gave me the idea.)
i'm a fake australian ......
Introduce yourself! Commiserate over timezone blues. Make friends! Shitpost! I know there's more of us out there than any of us are aware...
caps is a fake australian but now counts as a real australian
i infiltrated your lovely country

australia time
I guess I can start: I am Nat, I'm 27 and live in Melbourne! If any local RPers ever want to chill out and have social-distanced beverages some time, I am very down
My main fandoms are Ace Attorney, Dragon Age and Mass Effect but I just love video games in general and look I am pretty easy to enable, tell me about the things you love so I can love them with you
and yes, absolutely feel free to replurk this
let's collect all the australians...
I'm Lin or some people call me Caps. 26 and living in Melbourne. 
Main fandom right now is Attack on Titan but I dabble into jojo, one piece and demon slayer among many others. Not in many games atm but probably going to join 
with Jean from AOT

I have visited Aus a lot because mum's bff our family friends live there but I'm a kiwi. Still, yes I am glad to see the timezone/country mingling from afar. Gather together and get to boomerang for once everyone!
Hello I am Lily and I am a always furious Australian, apparently.
there are more australians in here than i have known through all my ~13 years of rp
can't believe gladys is friendmatching us
From Brisvegas
kiwis are honourary australians for the sake of timezone friendships
hi im flame 
and i'm a stinky city slicker who was born in sydney but lives in melbourne
and i'm a stinky city slicker who was born in sydney but lives in melbourne
god i never knew there were so many melb dwrpers
call me a state traitor if you will
you're the worst of us
flame i forgot you were also in melb........
ew brisbane
gasp
WOWOWO WHO IS CALLING OUT MY COUNTRY TOWN OF A CITY
just kidding now that you know me you now know everyone in brisbane
no there's another rper i know in qld
so between the two of you i think i do know the entire population
wait is there anyone from sa?
yeah can we please borrow jacinda for a bit
i do know an rper from adelaide but they're not active rn
we'll give her back one day
(never)
(we'll never give her back)
yeah i met up with an adelaide rper one she was cool
SHHHH DONT TELL THEM THAT
god i love adelaide
yeah i am! for better or for worse
god i knew more kiwis one time than australians, still great
and also if anyone wants more aussie buddies ur all absolutely welcome to add me!!
best capital city i'll fight everyone on that
Honorary Aussies lol. Yeah my family friends are in Brisbane. I've basically been there and the Gold Coast mostly. I myself am in NZ obviously but yeah pretty similar timezones for the most part.
also australian folks are welcome to add me because sometimes i shitpost about australia and it's always nice to have people who understand the shitposts
also nsw solidarity because most of my australians are from victoria
it's ok my insults hold no water bc i've only been to sydney and i don't even like it that much outside of the views, the city is not for me
ayyy
i've been everywhere except NT because there is nothing there for me
Yes please add me too, I'd love me some more Aussies!
sydney is nice for a day to consume all of their good city food and then flee back to the country
I've been to Sydney and your drivers are fucking terrifying
CITY DRIVERS ARE INSANE
THAT'S THE WORST PART OF IT
THE ROADS ARE HORRIBLE
driving in sydney is an activity for a very specific kind of brave person and i am not one of them
EVERY CAR ACCIDENT I'VE BEEN IN HAS BEEN IN SYDNEY
ill stick to my dirt roads tyvm
I too need shitpost friends, people who know the true value of having a gaytime
Everyone wants our PM. I only wish that everyone could share and have capable leaders everywhere.
i used to despise going to sydney, but somehow i ended up with so many sydney friends so i go there like 3 or 4 times a year when you know
P L E A S E
everything isn't so much
You mean the ice cream cones right? iirc? That's a brand of them or something?
my whole family lives in sydney so i gotta go there at least once a year and every time i want to die
meanwhile i haven't been interstate since 2012, laughs with salad
i was thinking of going to melb this year and then Everything Happened So Much
yea gaytimes are an icecream
i snapchat all my american friends when i have magnums and gaytimes/gaynettos
oh and for the melburnians: i work in the railways so if you want the down and dirty on why your train was delayed
a delicious one
points at eyes, points at you
yeah you can blame nat for it
thanks nat
o-oh this is so cute 
honestly getting more and more true
she did it on purpose
i used to run convention stalls for critical hit. i hope i've seen all you nerds at a con at some point.
she saw you coming
thanks for all my late trains, nat
ive only been to supanova and smash in syd...
kjkdf you probably have
yeah we sold at smash every year except their first
My bf flew over for PAX last year. I have only ever been to our local Armageddon and that is tiny.
In comparison to overseas cons from what I imagine anyway.
shit well maybe you saw me in my kyouko cosplay one year ig
i went to anime festival syd this year for the first time ever and then a week later the country was closed
god i've been to every pax, pax is my favourite con hands down
GOD
I travel fairly often, lucky as hell. We spent the last two christmases up at cairnes, and couple of years ago we drove to adelaide through broken hill which was cool as hell
you going to that anime con closed the country, buddy
lmao you got in JUST in time
i'm isa, 24, sydney and specifically the shire which is not something i say with pride HGLKSDHG 
i'm. i don't know what fandoms i'm in. mostly fate/ and otome games. rn i play at meadowlark!
i'm. i don't know what fandoms i'm in. mostly fate/ and otome games. rn i play at meadowlark!
makes out with my mermaid leggings and giant pusheen and shuts the country down around me
I THOUGHT FOR THE LONGEST TIME THAT CAIRNS WAS IN NT
oh no the shire...clutches your shoulder
phaseblast oh i've been to the shire!! one of my fave people lives there....
O H N O no, no i ti s NOT
THERE ARE SO MANY AUSTRALIANS HERE
oi nah yeah mate
all my fam are from liverpool it's fine
HELLO, I am Ash, from outside ACT. Theoretically I even RP.
i flew through cairns on the way overseas a couple years ago and it blew my fucking mind that i was in qld???? and not nt???? it was so weird for me
I haven't been to Aus in forever since my childhood friend's 21st iirc but. Yes it's neat to see others in a similar timezone and Aus is so much bigger bound to be more of you than there are kiwis around rp land.
hello! i'm Grace, i live about an hour out from Sydney, i play the annoying scatting robot from Samurai Jack at 
even you shire types are welcome here
oh good more General Vicinity Of Sydney people are showing up
gross
oh yeah all plurk adding is awesome here too, ITS NEARLY DINNER TIME SO I'M IN AND OUT
i posted this at a very australian friendly time
yeah i've got footy training in a few but 
most of my internet haunts are dead but this plurk, this plurk will live
yeah you posted it right when everyone's burning dinner
BRISBANITES
I can't believe more of us exist!!!
I mean, I grew up in ACT, so if we need to represent everyone, I could like. Stand in
I am trying very hard not to burn dinner as I catch up on chat
oh wait i have been to canberra too i kind of forget yall are a state/capital
how do you do footy training with the restrictions o:
i say rudely
gasp if we get someone from all the states can we form a like, captain planet style hero
i have an rper who lives in canberra added maybe they will turn up
is it different
we're allowed to have 20 at training again! and full contact soon
our season resumes fully on the 17th of july at this point
fwiw guys Hello Fresh bundles are actually really good
oh damn really, thinks
until i visited i was convinced it was pronounced 'queeny been'
BY OUR POWERS COMBINE WE GET........... idfek that pig that got drunk and tried to fight a cow
Yeah iirc my brother has his rugby training again but I know restrictions might be different between here and Aus/different states in Aus still.
looooooooooooool
i mean, fair
we have to have a covid manager on site still but
god yes i love those meal delivery services
my partner and i use marley spoon
but no, we just do the Aussie thing and drop like half the vowels
i haven't tried any of these delivery services so this is good info
well, we've paused for now because work has been flatout so there is much uber eats atm... it goes through cycles
we hopped onto hellofresh to cut down our ubereats
i cook toast
i usually do all the cooking but i've been super out of the kitchen lately so Maniette does most of our food now
i can't fucking cook toast
OKAY LOOK I'M GONNA RANT ABOUT THIS
BECAUSE
pros: the recipe cards are SUPER simple to follow even if you have no idea what you're doing
cons: someone still has to cook
cons: someone still has to cook
vegemite is all you need
I'M. I'M A TRAINED CHEF. I'M A QUALIFIED COOK.
I CAN'T USE A TOASTER.
I CAN'T USE A TOASTER.
i'm crying
I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE ISSUE IS????????? I'VE SET 3 TOASTERS ON FIRE IN MY LIFE. I'M 28 YEARS OLD.
like, my partner can follow them, but at what cost? for some reason the whole process just stresses him out immensely so i cook and he cleans
I want to deny it but I said gnight to some of my international friends on voice chat and they all called me out on it having a night time version of "gday"
MY BREAD ALWAYS COMES OUT BURNED ON ONE SIDE AND WHITE ON THE OTHER.
GKSKSJKS HOW???
everyone has flaws...........
I'M FUCKING CURSED.
gnight is australian???
do you change the bread over while you are cooking it
that's what my fam always has to do
bruh i didnt know arvo was australian for YEARS until i had people asking about it
no the toaster should do its damn job and cook it on both sides for me
i'm like can. can you not figure out
just keep switching it from side to side
gonna have some avo in the arvo
I've never met a toaster who will do that
what
toasters are
they're supposed to
the entire point of the appliance is it does it for you
they're supposed to
the entire point of the appliance is it does it for you
i always chuck it in on the min time and then flip it yeah, though the second flip you need to pop early (i don't like my bread super cooked so ymmv)
otherwise i may as well use the damn grill
YOUD THINK IT WOULD THO LIKE
my poor voice chat buddies have had full australian english lessons
THE HEAT IS THE SAME ON BOTH SIDES??
YEAH LIKE
WHY YOU NO COOK EQUALLY
YOU'D THINK
but no
THE ELEMENTS ARE ON BOTH SIDES
WHY THE FUCK
like i'd understand for a crust or sth
where there is an actual difference in the bread
are you sure it's not just because we're all using $7 kmart toasters
admittedly, I don't really do the toast thing anyway
they no longer are confused when I go to the bottlo and the servo
look you should've seen my reaction the time i found out eftpos is apparently an australian term
IT IS??
wait what eftpos is aussie???
.... is it
at least if half the word is missing you can tell
I never thought the middle dongles heated right
yes i learnt that very quickly during my us trip
APPARENTLY???
oh my god is that why i get so many weird looks
FUCK
crying
i was APPALLED at the amount of times i had to SIGN my SIGNATURE
Like the outside is a heat trap but the inside dongles just sort of go everywhere
W H A T
holy shit
most of the internet doesn't know chook, either. IT'S THE ONE THING I REFUSE TO CONCEDE. I will codeswitch for most other things
but not chook
my favourite aussieism is still the mcg bc like melbourne cricket ground > mcg is not short enough for us. it has to be the 'g
I REFUSE TO NOT CALL CHICKENS CHOOKS
YEAH i confused a US with chook the other day
it's funny because as i get more tired of a night my filter starts to go more and more
chicken is just weirdly formal
they're CHOOKS
okay no i know i've used chook before and been understood
I have not done voice chat but I can imagine US peeps being ???? at us yes.
catch me on voice at like 3am
i saw an article about the gabba the other day and was like. "i wonder if any other countries mangle their sports stadiums like this"
and it's just indecipherable to americans
i'm trying to write this tag and i keep getting distracted by this plurk
I said "dobbed on" and got blank looks
yall are bad influences
saaaaaaaaaaad
yw
god the code switching
I thought dobbed was a pretty standard thing right? Like nark or telltale or whatever.
also chicken flavoured chips
i hate having to code switch but i also hate explaining myself
dilemma
americans be wild about finding out chicken is a normal chip flavour here
Wait the US doesn't have chicken flavor chips?
waitwait
they don't get chicken???????????
I usually just. get tired of explaining. so I codeswitch a lot
my one was calling it a whippersnipper, that got..... many blank confused looks
i codeswitch habitually as soon as i encounter a computer
I have only been there a couple times so I honestly don't recall.
BUT
WHIPPERSNIPPER IS A GREAT WORD
what is a whippersnipper if not a whippersnipper
hills hoist...
i'm serious what do they call it
i think it's called like an edge trimmer or smth???
but whippersnipper is so much catchier
the fuck whippersnipper is so much more fun
i thought an edge trimmer were shears?
was, were, whatever
is?
are?
words
they call it a weed whacker
as I found out
as they went
"YOU HAVE TO BE MAKING THAT UP"
do you guys ever get caught out misunderstanding american terms in rp
YES
like fucking. dennys. and diners.
OR NOT REALIZING THINGS ARE AUSTRALIAN
i thought dennys was like a mcdonalds????????
YES
AND USING THEM IN DIALOGUE/ACTION
Oh wait that's the other one
ESKIE
but apparently it's like a restaurant????????
ESP USing australianisms
the only reason i know about a ton of restaurants and shit is bc of animorphs
excuse me mcdonalds is a restaurant
no one else calls it Eskie but calling it a Cooler just feels...... weird.......
eskie is a brand name
WELL APPARENTLY DENNYS HAS TABLE SERVICE
i'm fairly sure
MACCAS DOES NOT
anyway that's something i learned from the 3am dennys meme
gjksdjksf oh my god
yeah but it's one of those brand names you just Use
okay that's valid
i'm glad we can all relate
don't get me started on doona
YEAH and how america talks about KMart and Target???
i still dont know what the fuck a duvet or a comforter are tbh
okay doona just sounds aussie though
duvet and comforters are both the same thing
i literally don't think i've ever been in a kmart, somehow. i've seen them i know they exist in places near here
speaking form a housekeeping pov
they're all fucking blankets
DOONA!!!
they're the insert into a doonah cover
I worked in a hotel at a airport and lord the codeswitching i had to do
but they may also be interchangable with like. thick wool blankets that go ON the bed seperately
oh god
oh christ i can only imagine when it's for a job
KMart is a thing yes they're. Like the Warehouse I guess? idk on Target since idk we have those.
as poor guests from 432432 try to decipher what the fuck we were saying
yeah, lmao, i didn't even bother trying to Aussie with foreign guests
Hiiiii 
and yeah Eskie is like Glad Wrap, I know it's technically called cling wrap. but like. it's Glad Wrap
you also don't realize how indecipherable your own accent can be until people hear you talk
^^^^^^ i was talking to friends in the US in a restaurant once, and the whole restaurant went silent
i worked in foreign currency exchange up until january. the amount of times i had to repeat or rephrase for some visitors who hadn't adjusted to the accent yet
just to listen
bc like. we hear americans all the time on tv and stuff so it's normal/easy to parse but man a half asleep australian is the hardest thing in the world for some people
it was...an experience
blueflowers join the aussie brigade
it's not bad just funny
i also noticed how different we sound once an aussie accent is on tv? like i'm like "DAMN WE SOUND LIKE THAT?"
I am sure people would ??? if I were to try video chat because yeah lol our accents and names for things/slang.
quentinbeck hello!!
god i miss video chatting with ppl
YEAH WE SOUND SO WEIRD ON TV
yeah GOD australian accents on tv are so jarring
but when we talk to each other i don't hear that at all
YEAH
it's so off-putting and it feels wrong
YEAH THE CONTRAST
why did this plurk have to appear on my timeline as i'm about to start an evenimg shift. i cry
like, SURELY we don't sound like that
RIGHT??? IT'S SO STRANGE
but evidently we do
we sound squeak
evening*
*squeaky
man back when i was in hs i went on a school trip to japan and on the way back we Could Not Handle the qantas pilot's accent because it was 2 australian after not hearing the accent outside our group for two weeks
i think it's as much the word choice/shortening/etc as the actual accent a lot of the time too
and the swearing,,
i've never sworn in my life ever
fake
God I get so viserally uncomfortable when like there is one (1) australian in the middle of a bunch of american accents and i am like NO STOP
usotsuki
weeb
honestly it's as well like
STOP TALKING I CANT STAND HEARING MYSELF......
i'm definitely a "uses fuck as punctuation" type tbh
they don't necessarily use the accent on the right words?
every second word out of my mouth is fuck i can't help it
or like when one american is there in the middle of australians
yeah though it's fine when YOU'RE the only australian bc you don't really hear yourself but
you can TELL when it's an american doing an aussie bc they say the "a" wrong a lot
IT JARS ME OUT OF MY IMMERSION IN WHATEVER SO BAD
i have definitely intimidated rp buddies before with my potty language
we're all motherfuckers here
americans just dont appreciate the versatility of cunt
fuck yeah
fuck is just such a useful word tho
i've gotten "i'm so sorry i didn't mean to upset you" and i'm like "what the fuck are you on about my dude"
OH GOD yeah i had to clean up just a little. a little.
i always say that if an aussie calls you a cunt dont worry, its when they call you a mate you need to worry
god yes i definitely say cunt a lot less online than i do irl
i code-switch out of it around my parents and little kids but like
which confuses people
i default swear like a shithouse
same but i dont bother around my parents they're the same as me
fr the speed with which i immediately devolved into insulting palkia in their stupid footy conversation the other day
also im just quietly adding everyone on this plurk but feel free to ignore me if youd rather not!
i can't say 'fag' online bc i scared a scottish friend using it
i would not get that way with american buddies
they get scared so easy
Oof yeah calling someone a good cunt is a thing here too.
even my old boss at work would swear like a mf but i think physical jobs are like that more than usual... if a horse steps on your foot nothings gonna stop you from yelling AH CUNT
one of my OCs is aussie and Real Gay but i'm Not Allowed to use fag or cunt bc i
will scare the americans
o/ Aussie reporting in
It's if you don't use the good in front that it is an insult.
it's so weird how many ways there are to use "shit" as a positive turn of phrase
uh fuck you for barracking for the swans
but also doing a food run because jdfhakjh dinner so will intro and look for more aussie friends in a bit \o/
fuck YOU
yeah my workplace is very sweary as well
yeah fuck the swans
no fuck YOU
the night is young
same mine swears as long as the higher higher higher ups aren't around, but TLs and stuff are fine
i've never gotten to use that emote before i'm so happy and fulfilled rn
how can you swear like that
i'm wearing my cats training guernsey right now fuck you
crying that emote
cats > swans
me: i dont fucking know, ya just do it
hmph
one of my friends is a very wonderful british fellow and he is very sweet and I can hear his proper and mild mannered soul DIE every time I mistakenly go YA CUNT
oh the british are so fun to fuck with
pfffft
i love poms
here I just have to out myself as weirdly polite
god i'm trying so hard to write this fucking smut tag but HOW CAN I NOW
i genuinely want to hear my very sweet and lovely soft british friend say cunt
bc he WOULD
bc they're closer to us but i think that just makes them more offended at our bastardizing the language
i'm so very un-aussie in my swearing
we've ruined your tagging life sorry
everyone apologize to my psl partner now
what is tagging, i've heard of tagging
i've absolutely sent gag smut tags to friends using aussieisms tho
have to send them an rip this thread card
so just do that
lmfoa
hello I am an adelaide person
hgyashasguih
i haven't tagged consisently since those bloody bushfires
and cluelessnu
oh my god adelaide rpers do exist
holy shit
it's a miracle
the adelaide people finally appear
lmao
an entire cluster of them
but are you crows or port supports
neither 
i love adelaide so much. every time we go there we stay with my friend's aunt and uncle in bel air. it's so good.
belair is such a lovely place
i'm not even joking her aunt and uncle live in bel air and we play the fresh prince theme song every drive UGH
damn now i can't make fun
I wrote top levels for an event involving crocodiles in like steve irwin-isms until people I was threading with begged me to stop
the reception up there is horrible but it's so pretty
LMAO
hgklds
omfg
everyone with the fresh prince jokes lined up just has to put them down
i want to play with you palkia
god it's not your fault they can't appreciate quality
lmao I've had to deal with too many rabid footy fans to ever appreciate the sport >>;;
wait i meant aeneia I MISSED
fucking plurk putting reply button at the top i can't aim
im like the animal wrangler when it comes to lizards etc and i talk like that to them people just dont understand...
my mum's from melbourne; i observe the footy-thing from a distance
I SEE HOW IT IS
i was gonna say, don't play with triumphal what have they ever done for you
FUCK YOU
FUCK YOU
she's a rabid footy fan, so.....
yeah i'm the worst kind of person
im a rabid fan of TWO FOOTY CODES
i mean your username is a pokemon so you can't be THAT bad
yeah. swans fan.
LMAO unless you're the kind of rabid footy fan that breaks windows and punches people in the face when they win I think you're ok
and wests tigers fan
oh christ no i just decorate my house
okay so i take that back
tigers is unforgivable
and play it
EXCUSE ME???
ONLY WHEN ITS RICHMOND TIGERS
i just celebrate whenever richmond get the wooden spoon
it brings me joy
yep
honestly here was I serving them quotes from an ICON a TRUE AUSTRALIAN and they kept going "no we can't stand you referring to crocodiles as 'tricky little buggers that get a bit cranky'"
if richmond gets the wooden spoon all is right wiht the world
i got really upset when they won the grand final
i'm trying to remember which team i'm supposed to hate based on my location but it's been so long since i paid attention to nrl that i've completely forgotten
wests tigers are completely different and superior
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
hgjkdshgkjdhjgnlksd
TRICKY LITTLE BUGGERS
I HAVE A MOUTHFUL OF COKE YOIU FUCK
but they are??
thats how i talk to bluetongues
fuck okay all of us join one game and just overrun an event with aussie shit
also who else forgets we reverse severity on issues and expect people to understand
god i'm down
i've done it a few times in tags
oh me
but also i'm a richmond supporter
am i still allowed??
i barrack for richmond
no
I'M DOWN. i mean, i have like no tagging power rn. BUT DOWN.
but i like it when they lose
where REALLY SERIOUSLY TERRIBLE BAD THINGS: "well, yeah, that's a bit of a problem"
jkjksd FAIR
Yeah I recently ran into that re: responses
give me a game and i'll throw one of my changelings into it
they're all very aussie
as a kid my uncle used to congratulate me on the tigers getting the spoon. so i thought that was the thing to hope for.
now i just do it because it's funny.
and trying to explain that we just get really.... lowkey. when it's serious.
i dont play any aussie characters which is a crime
do it
or turn everything into a question
join me in "having to explain aussie culture ICly" hell
has anyone here watched Crownies?
because I almost apped Richard Stirling to a game once
i wanna play Janey from Borderlands
he's pretty much just Edgeworth, but Australian
two frenchies, a brit, an italian, two greeks, one japanese... w/e the fuck etherians are...
aliens
someone play "the last australian" from the snowpiercer series
my mum once was on a small plane that had to make an emergency landing in a field and the farmer came out and was like "oi, wreckon you're having a little issue there?"
lmfoa
lmfao
idk if he has any plot other than that I've only seen the first ep
i can type
'just a little bit'
looooooooool
to a plane like, smoking in his open field
sounds about right
also
yeah nah she'll be right even if a bomb goes off
daskfla very australian
i mean it's a small plane so clearly that's only a little issue right
.... damn i can't. think of an australian characters in my current media stuff.
NOT ENOUGH OF US
She'll be right is so very kiwi/Aussie yes.
maybe this theoretical game needs to be open to OCs
SHE'LL BE RIGHT MATE
here's an idea: the game should just be set in australia
But also yeah I guess. Most movies and such is set usually everywhere but Nz/Aussie really because of course it's usually the US
we could all play apocalyptic side characters from mad max
wuifhsjkdsh
hhshahahahahahahahahaha
the only australian i can think of from any of the extended canons i have muses from is like...jim crocodile cook from ygo gx
who is valid but also the logistics of having a pet crocodile in a dwrp game
who is valid but also the logistics of having a pet crocodile in a dwrp game

so i think this entire plurk was just cassie wanting a ploy to dunk on elle
yeah what a bitch
aeneia ily so much
everyone should rip into the swans instead
oh man
Stalker duck (creepy duck) vine

/slides in here
I HAVE BEEN SUMMONED
I HAVE BEEN SUMMONED
i am. closing plurk. and writing this fucking tag.
zigzag123 is a fake Aussie! don't believe her lies!
oh dear
cries that is so fucking real when you are trying to be sympathetic but then you australian and just sound like a prick
Hello I am a ZZ and I pretend to be an Adelaide-Ian even though I am an American who says she's from Canada because that is where my accent is from
ZZ you've been here for eight years you count
Shhhh it makes my intro more dramatic
true, she's gotten most of the lingo XD
lmao
And there is still shit I get confused by
i've been told my accent is american, canadian, and english
which i blame entirely on tv
but luckily not the important things, like which side of the road you should be driving on
also, this is just me spitballing, but for those of us who use disco, would people potentially be interested in an aussie dwrper disco server?
I've been told my accent is either canadian or irish
i get english. thanks, david attenborough
I made our friend Dan so excited because I said make a u-y instead of a U-turn the other day
Hi I'm Nu and I'm in Adelaide, right next to ZZ most of the time and just started this DWRPing thing like a year and a half ago.
seeing as there are clearly more of us than any of us thought!!
my ex told me nobody actually canadian or irish would peg me as anything other than australian
then I met an irishman who asked if I was canadian, so 
HAH
I'd love an aussie disco server
also! a discord sounds nice
i'd be into a discord server fwiw
hell yeah lets aussie discord
i've lived here my whole life and i also got the "are you english/irish/canadian/new zealander/scandinavian/etc into infinity" remarks when i worked retail
christens it with vegemite on toast and a bottle of passion pop
for me I blame theatre and tabletop RP
manufactured too many accents, lmao
reviseleviathan: i used to get 'are you English' a loooooot at school. i never left aus until i was like 15
too much bbc
jsdhsd YES excellent good i will
surprisingly i never got it at school just from customers, but i got it from customers Often
HI5S
do the thing, with the forewarning that i am a discord novice so
I got it because my mother was raised by her irish grandmother so ended up with an accent so then I ended up with it and people are like ARE YOU IRISH OR SOMETHING
I don't use it much but am happy to lurk
me: lol i was born in sydney so uh
i'm ziskandra#7191! hit me
and people who just want to hang out with the aussies are welcome too
if they can put up with our. uniquely australian charms
KayJay#1059 !
though I am half distracted right now with an MMO in the background
cluelessnu#8484
yeah i'd like a link to the disco too since i don't usually hand out my discord publicly
thank you!
in my head you said "uniquely australian charm" in a like burkes backyard kind of way intro to tvshow
and in the background it's a guy on motored eskie, with a kfc bucket on his head with a cricket bat charging across the background, chased by a crocodile screaming "CUUUUUUUUUUNT" out of frame again

i was trying to figure out why i couldn't edit the plurk and realised i was .... yknow in the wrong account
australia: a summary
b'-'b!! …I've had a couple people ask if I'm from England or Adelaide, but no, Sydney… probably due to picking up some stuff way back when! hallo I am kunenk

National Anthem of STRAYA (to the tune of Hey Ya)theme song of this plurk
So yo hey I’m JK, also Canberraish, mid-30s and I rp Hunger Games trash in RedShift
Also I endorse all the above sentiments about Sydney. God, I hate the M5 S O M U C H people drive like maniacs on it.
aeneia: that plane thing happened to my parents once, random plane landed on their farm

I'm Fenix, and I'm in Tasmania. I'm an aspiring writer, sometimes artist and very much a world builder. My main fandom/s right now are Pokemon and Detective Conan, but I also have a bunch of other ones, including Kingdom Hearts. I have a love of AUs. I have to many of them to count. Um. IDK what else to say other than I love this plurk.
also please friend me I need more aussies on my timeline. /)(\

Oh right. I'm in Voidtrecker with Eva (an AU Leaf), and Mask or Menace with GoldSilverCrystal!Rival/Silver/Whatever you call him, and Mizuki/Selene from the SunMoon games.

bookwormfaith: IS A GOOD. and also somehow I thought she was in SA so.... you know.
eski: /adopts as honorary Aussie.
all tasmanians count for two anyway
one for each head
bndshjshnahahhahaahah
it's funny because if i could live in any state it'd be tas so this is just my jealousy talking through rudeness
fdsajkdlfja I mean. true.
i can't imagine living in tas. auspost is bad enough on the mainland
noooo don't live here. we don't even have a damn people-train to hobart yet.
i once accidentally walked into the cbd from wrest point. it took about half an hour. i don't think i could live in tas.
Maniette: Ehhh it's ok enough.
ElleBrat: you really get used to it and it's not that bad, much as I whinge about the bloody weather.
i just wanna see snow (pensive)
i'm going to the snow for the second time in my life next month
yknow if we dont end up locked down again
I hope you get to see it!!!
jelly
that said I hope you don't get locked down again
well I WAS in SA lol
but I've been in Vic for the last 5 yrs
You all need to visit tasmania when we re-open borders.
come be Nice Tourists. (and not the god awful ones that have no respect)
I can go on a rant re: certain tourists I'be had the misfortune of encountering, but this is not the plurk.
XD
look we used to get a lot of Chinese Tourists and god. let me have the local Chinese because they're much less rude IMO. I am aware there are polite ones, yet my exp isn't that. I want that exp!!!!!!!!!!
(like, the kind that come off the tourist buses. I'd wager the average none-tour group tourist is polite and yes please come back to tasmania!!!
but that's enough on that.
oooh man tourists
since usually locals have acclimated to the culture
source: I'm Asian and my job got me to do customer service to many local Asians
Tas is the one place I haven’t been I need to get down there
Yeah! I know a few of the local Asians and they're all really nice. It's the Tourists I just. Will avoid like the plague if I can.
ashavah: please come when you can!!!
It’s on my list my whole family have been but me and loved it
I promise whenever I make it down to Tassie to be a nice tourist!
I've done my time in retail, okay, i know this hell
<3!!!
I don't like ragging on people, yet when you see the same shit and have stepped in once to call a person out... It gets to you, even if you don't work retail.
bookwormfaith omg i just saw your profile and
i grew up in wantirna south
we're almost covering all bases uwoh
what states/territories are we missing

timezone buddies!
fhjsd i know right
i'm never going to be productive again, i usually get most of my stuff done when the US is asleep

Honestly, same. It was bad enough finding Aussies in my FFXIV, and now I've got you in my RP too LOL

ziskandra: OMG NEIGHBOUR BUDDY
