Brisbane, Australia is basically New Orleans, only nicer

Basically every place is nicer than New Orleans

Brisbane and New Orleans also have a hot and humid climate which makes them pretty much identical.

Nice one, OP. Here's mine: Orlando and Paris, France are basically the same. Both have large airports and draw tourists from around the world. In Orlando, you can eat a sandwich, and you can do that in Paris as well.

No one ever talks about how Melbourne and Mogadishu are so similar. Both are vibrant cities located on large bodies of water. And clearly, both cities start with the letter "m." I amaze myself when I think about how alike they are.

The Brown Snake is not a “major river”, OP.

OP gets his kicks from starting random threads about Australia and NZ.

Odd.

Call us when they do voodoo in Brisbane.

If Trump is elected he's going to ruin the city. Haven't you read the plan?

They do do voodoo R7.

CALL THE POLICE! THERE'S A MAN IN THE LADIES RESTROOM!

Is Brisbane situated dangerously below sea level? I don’t want to revisit that tragedy. Do they have box mixes of their cuisine like Zataran’s from Brisbane? If it’s powdered kangaroo 🦘 or koala 🐨 over rice,🍚 I don’t want to know.

New Orleans ain’t hosting any Olympic Games….

They'd have to call out the National Guard, from three states, to hold games in New Orleans.

Koalas are a protected species but kangaroos aren’t, R11, so you’d need to be careful.

Roo appears on many fancy menus. It’s rather gamey but very low in fat. Popular on burgers. Available in most supermarkets.

[quote]Brisbane, Australia is basically New Orleans, only nicer

Spoken like the usual Australian or a typical non-Louisiana American.

So Brisbane is a better place to visit than to live?

Tell me your from Louisiana without saying that you’re from Louisiana, R15.

“You’re” - I’m oh dearing myself.

Is it really hot and humid in Brisbane? Guess that rules out me going there for the Olympics, I cannot abide such a climate.

—I'm fucking retarded

Did most of you miss the sign-off?

OP sounds like he fell down and hit his head on the ground.

r20 It's mostly elderly people posting, here. That print is too small.

r17/r18 How embarrassing, when you were criticizing another.

Not all of us are posting from the nursing home R22.

In "Australian", the phrase "I'm fucking retarded" a self-deprecating way to say "I'm an idiot". It can also mean you're drunk or buzzed.

[quote]Both cities are known for their vibrant cultural scenes.

Hahahaha. Brisbane? It's a backwater, literally.

r24 Yes, we're aware

Brisbane is merely warm and not wet compared to NO, NO is hot and miserable.

One thing I learned recently about Australia is that you don't tip the service industry because they're paid a large wage.

The irony, r24...

r27 What an interesting website, thank you. I just wish it showed humidity averages as well, that's where my mind went to first.

I agree - I love Brisbane-themed restaurants with Brisbane-styled music and food. So culturally unique! /s

The people of Queensland are as mad as a cut snake.

Kangaroo Burger = Rat Meat

r27 I wish that site just told us which American/European city is closest to Brisbane, climate-wise. That would be the easiest way to visualise what kind of climate they have. Population size and average income could be useful as well. Property prices maybe, too.

My neighbor visited family in New Orleans this summer. She said you walk outside and your clothes instantly feel wet. She also visited family in Brisbane and it took 17 minutes for her clothes to feel wet from the humidity. That's as scientific as I'm getting this morning.

[quote]She said you walk outside and your clothes instantly feel wet.

Disgusting, just reading that made me cringe. Living in the swamp, breathing hot swamp air, and having swamp ass 24/7, no fucking thank you.

Are there good oysters like in New Orleans?

You can purchase chewing gum in NOLA, yes.

*And in Brisbane, too

Brisbane seems more like a generic Canadian city transported into the southern hemisphere than New Orleans to me. Calgary with palm trees.

I cannot believe there is a place where collectively Australians are nice.

Weatherbase.com will give all the info for anywhere, I use the regular site not the mobile, it works better for me.

This is interesting.
