valve hates australia because they have THE stupidest censorship laws

i hate saxton hale

i just think it's funny

(Anonymous) 2010-12-10 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
That's an absurd assumption. If you want stupid censorship laws, go to Germany. In the Meet the Team videos the guys are robots who explode into fountains of oil and gears, and in-game characters don't bleed at all, yet Valve didn't make fun of them in particular. If Valves portrayal of Australia was in any way mean-spirited we would have known about it.

you don't remember the L4D2 debacle?

(Anonymous) 2010-12-09 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't find that running joke funny at all, but... Australia has always been the joke country. It's not just TF2 making fun of it. I'm not condoning it but you can't just be singularly mad at Valve when there's a rich long history of taking the piss out of those kangaroo-riding barbie-shrimp-eating criminals

[identity profile] mutandismutatis.livejournal.com 2010-12-09 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Isn't one of the original developers of TF2 Australian? Or am I remembering things wrong..

[identity profile] cowgirlmaxwell.livejournal.com 2010-12-10 12:02 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, one of them is Australian, and one of them is a New Zealander, so that fully explains any jokes about Australia that Valve have ever made.

[identity profile] xanykaos.livejournal.com 2010-12-10 05:12 am (UTC)(link)
That's true enough. The nicest guy I ever met was a Kiwi, never said a bad word about anyone, grumbled, griped, always approached everything with a smile and an excited attitude (I still remember getting a call one day: "I got police searched! It was so cool! I've got a little pink slip that says 'Not a Threat!'").

The jokes I best remember from him were all Aussie jokes. Hi-larious.

Tf2 is not serious business.

[identity profile] morloki.livejournal.com 2010-12-09 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh, guys? I'm Australian. We take the piss out of *ourselves*. Australia's national motto should be 'we don't give a shit, have a beer and relax.'

And we're working on those censorship laws.

[identity profile] jdcorps.livejournal.com 2010-12-09 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't know about you, but I think it'd be awesome if my country was displayed in some way in Team Fortress 2 canon in all its' sillyness.

Besides, the australians in that world are displayed as the manliest and smartest people in existence.

(Anonymous) 2010-12-09 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeaaaah, that's facetious humor, and video game developers have a particular bone to pick with Australia because of the stupid censorship laws.

And if you can't take that amount of ribbing, it's a good thing you aren't from a country that get a lot more malicious and widespread "teasing."

(Anonymous) 2010-12-10 09:22 am (UTC)(link)
I know this is late...but this. There are a lot of other countries that have it a lot worse than that so...if you can't take that, be glad that's most of what you get. : /

[identity profile] bamf-girl.livejournal.com 2010-12-09 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Chill out, every country gets made fun of by other countries, and sometimes by themselves. It's not new. Or did you miss that episode of the Simpsons where they go to Australia?

[identity profile] une-pomme-folle.livejournal.com 2010-12-10 12:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, but that episode was awful in about a million different ways.

[identity profile] bamf-girl.livejournal.com 2010-12-10 06:56 pm (UTC)(link)
How is that episode awful..? It was the same facetious poking fun of Australians, the Simpsons have done it with all other countries they've visited as well (Great Britain, the African continent, Japan, etc), and do it with/to American culture in every episode.

[identity profile] une-pomme-folle.livejournal.com 2010-12-10 11:46 pm (UTC)(link)
I thought it was lazy and poorly-researched. Obviously it's meant to be satirical, but there wasn't enough truth behind the jokes for them to be funny for me. I guess YMMV.

Also, Australian accents do not sound like that.

(Anonymous) 2010-12-09 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
isn't robin an aussie?

[identity profile] weslea.livejournal.com 2010-12-09 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I know this is a huge, and most likely wrong assumption, but... you're not Australian, are you? Basically our cultural humour is taking the piss out of everything, ourselves included. And I mean, come on, 'moustache sciences'? If that didn't immediately right all the wrongs, you just need a new sense of humour.

[identity profile] innosancta.livejournal.com 2010-12-09 11:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Isn't there an australian developer?

(Anonymous) 2010-12-10 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
Take a joke, I'm an Australian and all of my Australian friends and I love TF2verse Australia and Saxton Hale. Valve also mock America by having the patrioric American be the dumbest and least tolerant of the group, and they mock France by having the Frenchie be a suave, sexy ladkiller who devolves into a snorting retard when overly amused, or screeching like a cat when hit with a jar of old piss.

...I cannot believe this secret exists.

(Anonymous) 2010-12-10 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
this nzer says lol carry on

[identity profile] xanykaos.livejournal.com 2010-12-10 05:14 am (UTC)(link)
I'm gonna call troll, because I can't imagine anyone (except maybe a certain friend's SO) having this poor a grasp of facetious humor and still being able to function on the internet.

Lol, troll.
