Do Ozzy’s say “shrimp on the barby”?

[Zimm]

SheZimm is saying that’s bullshit, and I’m saying Australians do everything stereotypical that is attributed to them. (Good thing they aren’t kiwi’s, ‘cause we know what gets attributed to them). I told her I’d ask them, and defense said they are know to lie. I think it’s all a setup.

Nah, marketing gimmick dreamt up to try to get you guys to fly the 14 hours down under. A shrimp to us is about 1-2cm long, we would be putting prawns on a BBQ if we ever got sick of steaks.
However we do wrestle crocodiles and have kangaroos bouncing down our city streets.

Mmm prawns. A conversation diversion, but this is the pub after all. I’ve never liked Indian cooking, but I assumed it was the American version. So, I ended up have curry prawns in Swansee, Wales, and I went back 4 times in two weeks. The prawns were out of this world. All the Indian cooking was fabulous… here, there are 100 dishes all coming from the same pot. Same flavor for everything.

We put prawns on the BBQ, not shrimps.

The word was changed to shrimps for Paul Hogan's ads to promote Australia to Americans.

SheZimm is dux on this one: shrimps are for the Chinese fried rice.
We put prawns on the barbie just before we get stuck into the Ben Ean with the Sheilas.

While we’re on it… “Ozzy” is a recently deceased singer (RIP). Oz produces Aussies.
“Australians” is what our pollies call us when they want something.

Ozzy was the guy from Black Sabbath.
Then there is Austen Tayshus

What are the truths to all the Yanks stereotypes.
Are rednecks all married to their siblings and brewing moonshine in a wooden outhouse?

 

[Krabby]

Yes.

As for the original question, despite what actual Australians are saying, they’re lying as they do, they most certainly say that. I believe it’s actually on the back of their money. Who needs E. Pluribus Unum?

I distinctly remember a commercial for Ozs nation culinary pride - Outback Steak House - where a man drinking Ozs most beloved national libation - Foster’s Original - ordered us to in-fact “put another shrimp on the bah-bee!” People inside my television never lie, unlike Aussies.

The funny part about nicknames, is, unless you’re a made man, no one asks your approval. It just happens.

You’re Ozzy’s.

 

[Coullabus]

Can we trust American lexicography? They say trunk instead of boot, pants instead of trousers, but at least they add an ‘e’ to Whisky to differentiate from the proper dram - their vernacular avoiding damage to Scots heritage
With Australians allowances are made for their use of spoken language.
