    Nah, no more than you Kiwis being called Aussies.

    Or, far more worse, and as frequently happened to me in the States, Aussies being called Brits.

    When I was living in the States I met a young Hispanic/American doctor at a BBQ and it turned out I was the first "Ossie" he had ever met.
    After exchanging pleasantries his first question was, "Gee you speak english really well - what language do you normally speak?"

    1971 wife & I saw a car roll over down south east, dopey yank was enjoying touring and suddenly forgot what side of the road he should be on, anyway we helped them out and the driver said "if ever in US let me know I would love to repay you somehow". as it turned out we had been thinking of doing the USA tourist thing and '72 contacted him, he owned restaurants and motels all over southern states, so for 11 months we did busboy/kitchen duties/cleaners etc all for free food & lodgings plus a van thrown in.
    second month working I was busboy in Amarillo Texas and this obnoxious yob asked in a big voice... "where you from, boy?" dont f**kin call me boy I thought. "Australia sir" I replied, "How'd ya learn our language, boy?" as god is my witness I looked him dead in the eye and straight faced replied "phonetically, sir" fair go you would have thought I had leaned over and kissed his asss.
    The rest of the staff would not let it die down they thought that was the funniest answer ever.
    I would love to grow my own food, but I can not find bacon seeds

It works somewhat, half the dust eventually gets out, the other half simply settles elsewhere, mostly on me and especially inside my hair, clothes and beard. And by inside I mean inside. Definitely the last thing to do before a shower.

    Well I trust my stop saw so much...."
