There’s nothing more Aussie than tall poppy syndrome Grin

A lot of our pollies laugh it off… tonight Dutton says about so many memes about him that the last one was actually a compliment…(I forgot which one)

But Irwin is more Americanised I feel… and Americans can’t take shyte stirring critique too well…

It’s okay Robert… it’s tall poppy syndrome…comes free with fame and fortune.

This is not tall poppy syndrome. This is the retarded right crying victim again and blaming the victim. Which is why crappler loves it so much

He's a dual citizen of Australia and the US. But yes, I agree he is probably more Americanised due to his mother. I'm pretty sure if Steve Irwin was still around we probably wouldn't be having this conversation.

I'll bet you we would be. He was also a very precious puppy, rightfully protective of his 'brand.'

I'll bet anyone this whole thing has now been settled and the terms are confidential, and Hanson/Ashby have agreed not to rip off the Irwin name/brand again.

I trust the brand owners of Bluey have also done the same.

I'd say so, but it does not matter when there is a passing off afoot.

Did Crocman get pissy about this?

Humour is humour whether political or not.

A foot you say? Where does Pauline claim she is Robert? Or Bluey? Robert only says what he in fact says, the situation makes the irony for the observer.

Yeah, I'd bet you'd laugh it off if I passed myself off as you and demanded slaughter a zillion Jews, yes?

I' sure he'd have enough evidence it was you and laugh as he showed the world your "final solution".

She don't wear the tight khaki shorts. 2) Robert is warm and fuzzy. 3) zillion. hahaha
