But seriously, what’s wrong with those folks?  Take for example their national drink, Fosters, pretty much always judged the best tasting beer in all of Australia.  I mean, that stuff is pure crap — what on Earth are they thinking, drinking that stuff?

Also, when they were naming states, how the halibut did they decide to choose the abbreviation WA for Western Australia?  Didn’t they realize that this would frustrate the efforts of Database Developers everywhere who would like a unique key on the state code field that encompasses Australia, America, and Canada?  I first suggested that the best solution would be to destroy the state, however this was considered impractical because of all the effort that would be needed to evacuate the beloved cane toads.

So instead, I suggest an official name change, from Western Australia to “Another Empty Australian State”, abbreviated to AEAS.  That will be a unique code so Database Developers around the world can rejoice, knowing that they can include Australian states in their tables without having to add a second key for country code.

Who’s with me?!?
