Re: Australia:
Actually, I am genuinely curious: How do Australians view New Zealand? I've heard it compared to how the US views Canada but I don't know if that's an accurate comparison.
Re: Australia:
(okay, I guess not as I am alive...but then I know the exact location of 3 redbacks which apparently concerns people. Honestly I'm more worried the local drivers will get me, Melbourne drivers are SHIT at driving compared to ACT and TAS.)
Kind of a friendly rivalry? Especially come football season. They're more or less honorary citizens - they don't need passports to move and work here and I believe it's the same our way. They're certainly more ahead of Australia in human rights.
Lots of sheep fucking jokes on either side of the pond, lots of amusement over the number 6 (how NZ says 6 sounds like 'sex' to us, how AU says 6 sounds like 'sex' to them). As far as I'm aware neither of us get toooo snarky if you someone mixes an Aussie and NZ up but that may be because people are more likely to assume AU than NZ so'd have to ask a Kiwi on that.
Not sure how comparative it is, I haven't paid much attention to US-Canada relations ;P
Re: Australia:
Heh, nah, we just say that to freak out the tourists. I've seen poisonous spiders in the wild five times (two funnelwebs, three redbacks), and poisonous snakes once (red-bellied black snake, which isn't even the most poisonous). In the suburbs and in the city proper, you're not going to see a lot unless you go for a bushwalk, and even then, maybe not. In more rural areas, especially northern waters, you do get more deadly stuff (saltwater crocodiles, box jellyfish), but even then, attacks are rare (in the past ten or so years, there's only been nine people killed by saltwater crocodiles, mostly kids who were swimming where they weren't supposed to be).
And I actually really like New Zealand! There's rivalry, but it's friendly, basically Sydney rivalry - I actually went there this summer and absolutely loved it, want to go back and see more of it. Both Australia and New Zealand are used to friendly teasing.
Sports rivalries can get a little more intense ;)
But yeah, what caerbannog says about NZ is my experience too.
