I'm a white Aussie. I love the humour of my fellow Aussies, and the way we (of all races) can make fun of ourselves as well as each other.
I'd like to know what you have to say about your culture, whether or not it's the same as mine, you might just teach me something or give me a different perspective on what I already know.

Well I'm English, but first I'm a Yorkshire lass and we have our own culture up here. We are very welcoming (the kettle goes on as soon you arrive) and we have a very similar sense of humour to the Aussies, no one is sacred. My closest Aussie pal, takes my (very tired and very corny) Aussies joke very well (and I return the favour.)
Here's a typical exchange:
Me: mate, guess what? I rang up for a visa, I'm coming to see you. They asked if I had a criminal record and I said I didn't know I still needed one.
Aussiegirl: mate that's bad (laughing her head off)
Me: but I admitted I had a police record,
It's "message in a bottle", (more guffaws from down under)
Aussiegirl: seriously mate, what if you don't get a visa?
Me: oh, I'll just go out and steal a loaf of bread!
Aussiegirl: You are SO bad

Having an English ancestry I'd say Shakespeare, Geoffrey Chaucer, Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, P.G. Wodhouse and Terry Pratchett. For the whole British Isles I'd say the folk songs.

In Iran we have Aussie jokes:
One day they tell an Aussie that his father is dead. He says "Great !!! I wanted to put on blacks any ways "

Well, as Americans we are good at falsifying wars and killing people. We're good at cover-ups and rigging elections. We are also good at being religious and ignorant. We are experts at believing the bible is the LITERAL word of god. Hey, it's the american way!
