    It’s become a day/weekend for bogan flag waves to get drunk and annoy the shit out of everyone.

    It’s the only long weekend I stay home and don’t go camping due to ever increasing fuckwits.

    The entire idea of Australia Day means nothing to me anymore.

      Perth has an Australia Day tradition that’s pretty wholesome. The slogan this year is “Reflect. Respect. Celebrate” it’s a family day, very multicultural. Tonight there’s fireworks and a drone show.

    The only thing I care about is more holidays.

    The donkeys smashing up Woolworths stores, and vaping on the train and driving their stupid dodge ram utes cutting through corners when driving though have ruined it for everyone.

    No idea why we haven’t just changed the date yet. It’s not a big deal, and the people who are making a big deal about it are the kind of people nobody wants in Australia I’ve noticed anyway
