I was reading a thing about Yanks in Australia during WW2; and how, unlike when the Americans were in the UK wining and dining the British ladies while the majority of eligible young British men were off fighting in Europe, in Australia most of the Aussie soldiers and sailors got recalled back because they were needed to defend Oz from potential attack by the Japanese. So you had the hard-bitten Aussie troops getting mad because the flash Yank soldiers were "overpaid, oversexed, and over here" and stealing their women, to the point that actual riots broke out over it. Glad to see our special relationship has endured.

This doesn't make sense though. The British men were off fighting in Europe...where? Before Dunkirk there were no US troops in England. After Dunkirk there was no European front until D-Day, which the American and British troops did together, except for the German/Soviet front.

There was the North African front though, which the British were fighting in alongside many Commonwealth troops including the Aussies, and were eventually joined by the Americans, which eventually led to the invasion of Italy and the downfall of Mussolini. I think I might have mixed my timelines up there in regards to Europe.

Italy now officially not in Europe anymore apparently.

This is great, but replace “mate” with “youze” and you’re basically in Philadelphia.

Edit: I don’t want to overextend my welcome as a yank, but this thread is so much more fascinating than the Americana pictures of diner food. Question: I’ve seen this in books, do you actually say “fair dinkum”.

We have Mi Goreng in the US, though many burb goons may be unaware as only sold at Asian grocers. It’s utterly delicious and leaves ramen in dust.

I once got probated for calling Shane Warne a "See You Next Tuesday".

And I can think of no more fitting description of the man. Nor a more apt use of the word.
