I think this ad says it all.

Is that Copper minor humor?

 

[Dr Ray]

Australian humor - NT government is undertaking legal action for an authorized ad
It has been extremely effective though

 

[Pheroze]

Oh man that is hilarious An my daughter informs me that this particular word is a normal part of the lexicon; kinda like Hello or maple syrup or hockey in Canada

 

[Dr Ray]

Australian's language is, shall we say, colorful! The f word is so commonly used (by both males & females), it's ... like ...uhmmm, "normal".
I hear it everyday from people.

I take for granted how liberal we are with language until I meet people from other countries!

We don't walk around restaurants or formal occasions dropping f bombs everywhere but in daily life with mates its pretty big.

If i didn't call my mate a see you en tee or vice versa at least once during a catchup at the pub or at a bbq you'd be wondering what's wrong with the bugger.

Ironically, the word fanny has a very different meaning in Australia and is rarely used.

And there's some urbanites that argue Australia has no culture!
