    Sydney is pretty great.

    But Sydney, the rest of Australia is tired of you guys thinking it's all about you.

    YouTube

    It's time to take a moment and listen.

    1. "Sydney's weather is glorious."

    BBC

    This is Australia - every city has glorious days. And it legit rains more in Sydney than Melbourne.

    2. "We've had such a cold winter, hey?"

    HBO / NBC / Via tumblr.com

    YOU KNOW NOTHING UNTIL YOU'VE SURVIVED WINTER IN CANBERRA OR HOBART.

    3. "Bondi Vet. Bondi Rescue. Bondi Beach."

    Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures

    We get it, you like Bondi.

    4. "No one actually goes to the North Shore, unless you live on the North Shore."

    FOX

    Isn't Sydney big enough on its own without adding a-whole-nother bloody shore?!

    5. "I grew up in The Shire."

    New Line Cinema

    Wait! Are you a Hobbit?

    6. "This election, we'll be focusing on Western Sydney."

    ABC

    Would it kill the federal government to think about voters somewhere other than Sydney every once in a while?

    7. "Kale juice anyone?"

    Pixar

    Is EVERYONE in Sydney on an organic health kick?

    8. "You haven't lived until you've eaten Messina."

    Messina exists outside the NSW border, FYI.

    9. "This coffee is GREAT!"

    New Line Cinema

    Ummmm Sydney, nah.

    10. "It's so close to the beautiful water."

    Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures

    Carn Sydney, ALL Australian capital cities are on or close to water.

    11. "Nothing compares to Sydney beaches."

    These photos were not taken at Sydney beaches.

    12. "Ughhhhhhh CBD lockouts are THE WORST."

    Above Average Productions / Via memeguy.com

    Brisbane, Newcastle and Adelaide have lockout laws too so that ain't no thing.

    13. "One Coopers Green thanks."

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5mBShX9fdU

    IT'S CALLED A "PALE" (and it's not Coopers Red, it's "Sparkling".)

    14. "The Hunter Valley is the best wine region."

    HBO

    Closest. You mean closest. Because the best is obviously in SA.

    15. "The Blues were robbed!"

    Paramount Pictures

    Look, the Maroons probably won fair and square and can we go back to talking about literally anything else now?

    16. "Sydney Olympics were the best ever."

    Universal Pictures

    The year 2000 was a looooooong time ago... Nikki Webster has a child now people!

    17. "Does anyone even watch AFL though?"

    Walt Disney Pictures

    Um, yeah like the rest of Australia. Also did someone say $2.5 billion dollars for TV rights?

    18. "CityRail? More like ShittyRail!"

    Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures

    Go to Adelaide, there's ONE tram line.

    19. "The traffic is sooooo bad."

    FOX

    But you chose to live in Australia's biggest city, what did you expect?

    20. "I'm not going to that suburb, it's so. Far. Away."

    NBC

    But really, is it?

    21. "Oh, it's not THAT expensive."

    Buena Vista Pictures

    I just paid $9 for a freakin' juice m8, so, it is.

    22. "But my rent is so high."

    20th Century Fox Television

    Oi the cost of living is going up everywhere. Perth is expensive because of the mining boom, Melbourne is definitely not cheap and Adelaide also has rising unemployment.

    23. "OMG your shops close at 5:30 p.m.? But that's SO EARLY!"

    funnyjunk.com

    Two words: Time management.

    24. "This band's world tour is coming to Australia! Sydney dates announced!"

    Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer

    Bands flying half way around the world generally do more than one city (apologies to Perth and Adelaide.)

    25. "Sydney is basically the capital of Australia."

    NBC

    It's OK Canberra, we've got your back.

    26. "There's nothing to do there."

    New Line Cinema

    People all around Australia ~seem~ to be getting by just fine.

    27. "How far away is that?"

    CBS

    Tfw you mention Wagga to a Sydneysider.

    28. "Sydney is better than your city even though I've never been to your city."

    FOX

    -_-

    Alright, you can have that one.
