ok, everyone is to post the pro's and con's of living in your own country.
Australia
good things: everyone is up to play a game of almost any sport generally high standard of living LAN's are plentiful and intimate social welfare multicultural the chicks are easy work is easy to find sydney/melbourne/pleth comfortable population general friendliness in small towns
bad things: cricket drunkards and rough people in general racists closed minded people hard to get anime hard to get most good electronic music the price of import sucks no cable modem to much sunlight during the day vegemite computers are about 3 years behind america people like me get managing positions in pizza stores stupid traditions getting labelled under the stereotype of being an outback sheep shearer and speaking like a nonce
