Canada. Y U No Like Tall Guys???

Another night, another punch in the face from a random walking down the street.

I don't know what's going on with these damn Canucks. For over 6 months I lived in a dingey part of Cardiff, a notorious rough town in the U.K and had no problem at all ever. Before that I managed over 6 months in Edinburgh, walking down Leith Walk into the harbour every day for work and never had an issue. Hell even in Prague two of us had to walk through a gang of thugs with our backpacks to get to our hostel.

But in two months in Canada, I have been started on by a random for 'thinking I'm taller than him', been dragged across the street from behind by some flipping nutter with a cut across his eye, and then two nights ago punched in the face by some crack head before he legged it while being pursued by an army of bouncers that I was talking to.

All I'm gonna say is.......

A Letter To Producers Of Australian TV Shows

Dear Australian television industry,

As much as enjoy some of random nuggets of watchable material on the ABC and SBS (mainly documentaries and news programs) I am having an issue with the other 95% of  'entertainment' you are allowing to be programmed to the masses.

Now I understand that the Australian dollar is quite high at the moment (thanks mining industry for taking all our profits offshore) but I beg you, no more shows being shot on location overseas for no reason.
Apart from all being absolute dross, the worst part is all these presenters do the same thing......

• Walk around famous landmarks and places where the masses congregate.
• Approach locals and crap on about Australia and tell them about "how much you guys love our accent"
• Generally just be ignorant, arrogant fucks and bang on about how "one of our dollars could buy half your country lol"

Seriously, we do not need to see Hamish and Andy cracking onto American girls armed with just their accent and some shitty stories about drop bears and how they ride emus to work.

PLEASE STOP

We have enough bogan, ignorant, arrogant wankers flying the Aussie flag abroad without you dickheads giving them a big wad of cash to flash around and generally embarrass us all.

Yours sincerely,
