Its much the same as when you ask alot of Americans about the UK, all they can think of its bowler hats, umbrellas, pubs and fish and chips.

When in reality they should be saying "Tax, crime, cameras and curry" :lol:

Argggh I hate how they have to have at least one Irish accented guy behind the bar and you wondered if they were really Irish. How every fricking chair in the place is *******in uncomfortable because some marketing ****e thinks that Ireland is in the dark ages and everyone has farm implements hanging round their house.

Also what bugs me are some Americans who are 4th or 5th generation descendents of Irish immigrants, have probably never been to Ireland but seriously big up their roots to the past as if it was yesterday. I'm not saying all do that and I'm not saying don't be ashamed or forget where you come from, but I'm sure you guys know the type I'm talking about....

Rrrrrrrr......

I'd like to add my support to just about everything you said :)
I'm probably the least nationalistic Irishman in the world, but "Irish pubs" make me tetchy.

I'd say all "theme" pubs and not just the Irish ones. :down:

:yep: Theme just about anything, usually means it's going to be naff.

This is what I think of when somebody say "Aussie"
