The facts of life Down Under, to anyone who isn’t actually living there, are shrouded in mystery, and that’s the only truth. Like, what’s it like to be living in a place where almost every animal is either poisonous or venomous, where spiders fall from the skies, temperatures are scorching, and you have to endure it all while upside down?! The last part, of course, was a thoroughly not funny dad joke, but everything before it was true.

To learn about life in Australia, you could watch a National Geographic documentary, visit a library to check out an atlas, or try to google each and every aspect of thoroughly Australian things that encapsulate the experience of living there. However, a better way to learn the Aussies’ secrets would be to check out these positively Australian tweets and learn about their habits straight from the horse’s mouth. Or Twitter. So, what we did here is we gathered all the funny tweets that have been sent to our screens right from Down Under and are now letting you in on the secrets that we learned while reading them!

Be advised, though, these cool tweets are heavily peppered with phrases and words from everyone’s beloved Aussie slang, so you just might need a page of Urban Dictionary open to keep you in the know. Besides that, most of these snippets of wisdom are pure comedy gold, so a good time reading them is guaranteed!

Right-o, scroll down below and check out these hilarious Australian tweets! Once you’re done laughing and gathering intel on the facts of living in Australia, be sure to give the best tweets your vote so they find their way to the top of this list. Lastly, share this article with your friends!

I set Siri at last to Australian and FINALLY it understands what I am saying (Aussie abroad).

Nothing is more Australian than taking a byproduct from the beer brewing industry and repurposing it to be something to feed to your kids for breakfast. 😀👍 Edit: Thanks Tyke! There is also nothing more British than what I wrote above.

Here's me, wondering what OAK milk tastes like... until I turn up my screen brightness and see pineapple hiding at the bottom 🤣

Oh god I actually tried that stuff. In fact I sampled a lot of them as a stunt for my "What Did Food Ever Do To You?" page, which is all about the bizarre food flavours I keep finding. I tasted the Redskins flavoured milk (yes, they've since changed the name - it's a raspberry flavoured sweet which is apparently designed to break your teeth) in front of an audience and a good time was had by everyone except me. The stuff got taken off the shelves in about a month, and for good reason. The current bizarre flavour is "Lime Splice", which is an ice cream combining lime flavoured ice with vanilla ice cream. I haven't touched it. Yet.

Endless choice to watch people flogging floor cleaners. The excitement of a new channel is tempered by the fact that it probably will be a home shopping channel

It took me a moment to register that the picture on the left was from the show, and not actually him in his costume on a random beach on his day off

Last time I checked, half our country wasn't rioting due to people being murdered by our cops. And don't think we've forgotten when your cops shot one of ours just because she came up to your cop car.

No, we think Australian culture is having a firm grip on a venemous snake with one hand, a large beer in the other hand, while riding on the back of a kangaroo jumping full tilt through a desert hot enough to melt steel.

Yes, housing prices here in Oz are ridiculous. You watch House Hunters International and see people buying huge mansions in island paradises for less than a suburban bungalow in boring old Canberra

Kind of sounds like another term for sticky situation. Like oh man I got into a real bondi cluster last night

That particular PM was a POS. The only Aussie bloke that'd pop a blood vessel over that would be a FOX News fan. Wankers the lot of 'em!

I went to a gourmet pizza place here in Melbourne once, and had a duck and pear pizza with blue cheese. F*****g amazing!

It's true. Until recently stabbing your political leader in the back was a noble tradition (see Bill Hayden, John Howard, Andrew Peacock, Julia Gillard, Kevin Rudd, Tony Abbott, Malcolm Turnbull etc etc). It's good to see the baton has now been passed to the Brits.
