Question

Why are Australians so obnoxious when they travel abroad? Is it excess beer consumption?

Answer 1

Huh? Are you sure you have the right nationality?

Explain your broad assumption ("question") better if you would like a serious response.

Answer 2

mmmm - I don't know. But if I were you, I would be more concerned about the education I received at school on other nationalities (or rather the lack of it).

Answer 3

Ive heard that about every nationality, beer and large groups seems to be the trigger.

Answer 4

Crikey mate we are not obnoxious.

You might have met a handful Aussies like that, no different from the rest of the world and by the way we take great pride in our Beer, the Victoria Bitter logo is on our flag!

Answer 5

it is not that australians are particularly obnoxious, but rather that other nationalities are particularly unaccepting of their taste, idea of fun, table manners (or lack of), and behavior...  jj! i dont realy know why, but keep this in mind; 99% of the australian population is made of imigrants, ei from Ireland, UK, Italy, Greece, PNG, Japan and China. Sooooo... remember anything good or bad in australia is actualy from somwhere else in the world!

Answer 6

Struth mate ..... what a terrible question !

Personally I've never had any problems with Aussies - but I guess large groups and beer are a bad combination if you're an onlooker.
