Dear Australia

You seem to be a bit confused. Let me give you a quick reminder on how things are. We, the Americans, are supposed to take offense at everything and sue people for shit so that we get more money and maybe fame. You, as I understand it, are supposed to be chill and laid back and no really care about things cause you've got your own continent kangaroos and koalas and shit.

So what the hell is this crap?

CANBERRA (Reuters) - A Santa in an Australian department store said on Wednesday he has been fired for saying "ho ho ho" and singing Christmas songs to children. Employment company Westaff, which supplies stores with red-robed, white-bearded Father Christmases, had earlier asked its Santas to say "ha ha ha" because the word "ho," which is American slang for whore, could offend women, media reported.

    In Cantonese, one of the last names is "Ho." What are they not gonna allow my grade-3 science teacher to be addressed as "Mrs. Ho" because it's slang for whore?

    Fuck this shit. IT IS DUMB. I am overanalyzing.

    IT IS A DUDE LAUGHING for fuck's sake.

    I saw on TV today that Australia is moving north east at a rate of 5 inches per year. It's the fastest moving continent on the planet.

    Crazy shit man.
