It'd be cruel if the shark was alive while he did it.

    At least use more modern Aussie culture for your post. We've done more than just rip a cone through a shark.

    What the hell does slammed mean?!

    No wait let me guess, there was so much pressure in the carcass that it imploded into a black hole and sucked the human into its singularity.

    Aussie media likes to say someone was "slammed" for doing or saying something thats being criticized. It's tacky and clickbaity as fuck. Half the time they were "slammed" and you look inside and it's just someone saying "that's really not on mate".

    Australia has plenty of culture! Didgeridoo, boomerangs, dot paintings, petroglyphs, Dreaming stories, songlines...

    It's just that most of Australia's culture is Aboriginal!

    I just wanted to question the implicit assumption behind the meme: that Aboriginal culture is not Australian culture.

    That was your assumption, and it was a weird take

    No, it can't have been My assumption, since I assumed Aboriginal culture is Australian culture. You can see it in the comment above.

    For people not in the UK:

    The DailyMail is a rightwing sensationalist rag that has less value than used toilet paper. They write insane made up shit and thrive off it being shared on social media like this.

    I've seen enough backyard engineering experiment videos to know that Australia has a culture of fucking around.

    Australia needs to hang out with Florida, and maybe Louisiana, think they have a lot in common and would be good friends
