National traditions of Australia
The desire not to cause others any inconvenience, grows out of Australia’s anxious attitude towards convenience, especially in the domestic sphere. Choosing between beauty and comfort, they will most likely prefer the latter. On the streets of Australian cities, you can often meet people in strict suits and with sneakers on their feet: comfort when driving for them is much more important than the compatibility of styles. The same attitude is displayed in yet another of their well-known feature, their amazing sense of humor. Australians like to joke and they do so with pleasure. A typical Australian will never miss the opportunity to joke in a conversation about a neutral topic. He will also not hesitate to crack a good-natured joke on himself or a converser. However, they do not seek to ridicule people for the sake of it. In the Australian culture, witticisms and jokes are one of the attributes of informal communication.
