Any chance someone could explain this to a foreigner? At sporting events or whatever, I hear the "Aussie Aussie Aussie, Oi Oi Oi" thing, but I mean ... I just don't get it.

Now before you say "Oh, well you don't get it because you're not Australian," bull, LOL. We have all sorts of customs here that I don't get either. I'm used to them, but they still don't make any sense. It would be like a Disney fan defending "Zip a dee doo dah." It's retarded, but they might say "Oh, well you just don't get it."

Is this one of those kinds of things ("Hip hip, HOORAY!")? Maybe just there for the rest of us to wonder why that was the best someone came up with? I mean, I've wondered about this for a long time, but nobody I know over here has the answers to such things.

Or is there some historical significance of which I am unaware?

I have no fucking idea. It's a meme, really. We just do it, me ironically, everyone else, painfully enthusiastically.

Oi, oi, oi!
Sunshine coast here.

Combination of an upcoming winter and the fucking rain makes for dreary QLD weather indeed.

I'm not, but it comes as no great surprise to see who is. Aussies are cool. Live big, like Americans, but without the attitude. =^[.]^=

Well I live in Western Australia with my girlfriend (who's an Aussie), but I myself am American. So, I don't think that really counts :P

I got a post card from Australia once. The front had a topless girl on a beach.

I was maybe fifteen at the time. Been my second favorite country ever since.

True story.
