Top Things Every Aussie Has Something To Say About

Apart from the agreed screaming and running during swooping season

Welcome to Down Under, where we have many important choices to make; Coles, or Woolies? Maccas or KFC? Was that loud noise on the roof a branch falling or just a possum? Now, it is time for you to decide!

1. "Was that loud noise thunder or someone putting out their bins?"

It could very much be either - with our spontaneous summer storms and the ever-present bin day. If someone asks you, which do you automatically say?

2. Beach or Pool?

Whether you love plunging under the salty sea waves, the soft sand between your toes, or drifting on an inflatable flamingo with a cool drink across your own private lagoon, everyone can agree that going to the beach or chilling in a pool is a great way to spend summer.

3. Which is Worse: Snakes or Spiders?

Our home is also the infamous home of many snakes and spiders; but everyone has an opinion on which is worse to come across. To be fair, neither is great to come across during bush-whacking adventures or when stumbling to the campground bathroom at midnight, but some people simply despise creepy crawlies or slithery serpents more than the other.

4. Woolies (Woolworths) or Coles?

The two giants in the supermarket and grocery game. Occasionally you get Harris Farm as a dark horse in the fruit and veggie competition, as well as your local bakeries, butchers, etc. for their specific stock; but only psychopaths choose to only shop at IGA.

5. Ice Blocks or Ice Creams?

On a hot day (of which we sporadically have throughout the year), nothing beats a cold treat - but would you prefer an icy cold Zooper Dooper or a smooth and creamy Drumstick or Cornetto?

6. Maccas (McDonald's) or KFC?

This may be hard for some to answer, as we have so many good fast food chains as well as these powerhouses - from your standard Guzman y Gomez to the "healthier" options, such as Grill'd. Both Maccas and KFC, though, show their clear dominance by sponsoring many sporting games (most of the time cricket) and even partnering with swimwear companies, in the case of the Golden Arches. So; which is your go-to drive-through or easy snack?

7. Finally, NRL or AFL?

Two games we call footy, two games that are both similar but also very different. Two games that the whole nation gets behind, and that have massive impacts throughout the country. Even if someone doesn't really follow either game, they always prefer to watch one game over another. Which do you prefer?
