Australia Not Included in List of Coolest Countries? Has to be a Mistake



(Reuters) - They may be witnessing their global superpower influence decline in the face of challenges from other emerging players on the world stage, but Americans have been voted the world's "coolest nationality" in an international poll.

Coolest                Least Cool
Americans            Belgians
Brazilians              Poles
Spanish                Turks
Italians                 Canadians
French                 Germans
British
Dutch
Mexicans
Argentinians
Russians

First off, while I'm thrilled we dominated this poll, I've got to call into question any study of the coolest countries that doesn't include Australia in the top 3. This is either a gigantic mistake or some kind of blatant anti-Australian propoganda.  I mean the country is full of Crocodile Dundee characters, they've given us Fosters, and Wallabees (how cool was Rocko's Modern Life?), and Kangaroos. I've said it many times, its the one place I'll up and leave the United States for...I'll tell you who's no where near the top of that list for me, France, Mexico, Argentina, and Russia.  No chance in hell. I mean Russia? Are you kidding me...that's a slap in the face to the Aussies.

The list does go to further my point about Canada, yea guys, you didn’t come in last, but that’s only because of Belgium…and if I was ranking these countries you can be damned sure I’d flip flop those two…I mean at least Belgium contributed a half decent breakfast food (the waffle), all Canada did mess up the already perfect bacon…I mean , it’s bacon, you have to try to mess that up, yet there those hosers are, trying to push fried ham on me, pretending its bacon.
