Tom Armstrong has put a real beauty of a video onto YouTube:

Canberra’s 100th Birthday. Happy birthday you cold bastard!

What was your favourite line?

It’s a copy of this – and nowhere near as funny.

Another “s*** no-one says in Canberra”

“That hipster not only knew about this before us but also knows of a better one. That must make them supremely knowledgable and therefore better than us”

it started with its best – ‘oh, i get it, brilliant!’ at ainslie’s sheep. 🙂

(humour diluted as i’ve seen most ‘shared’ on fb)

“Boys I reckon I’ll keep my shirt on for Foreshore this year”

“Went to Meche last night. Only white guys!”

😀 So much win in this video.

If I had one complaint, it’s that… you’d think they would’ve found an actual roundabout to drive around given how many there are in this bloody town.

Well done Josh… the whole video is about bagging out Canberra but you have to make it about Queanbeyan!! Funny video and very true to life.

Classic stuff! And dare I say it, better centenary ‘art’ than the much-maligned whale, IMO! Hahaha!

i have heard people refer to queanbeyan as a suburb of canberra, albeit not one that was wanted.

By that logic every hitler/downfall video is a rip-off.

LOL at the video playing in the background when he arrives home from work!

I think the that scene is meant to be at work

‘How funny are Scotty and Nige?’ (After hysterical laughter.)

I heard it as “They are are as funny as scotty and Nige”

…without the obvious extra are.

Brilliant. I hope they do more of them.

No doubt if they watch a few more YouTube videos and remake them with local references (hoping nobody notices) there will be more where that one came from.

I didnt get into UC….

Irony is, I could get into ANU but not UC… and ended up at CSU Wagga.

go figure.

very amusing.

Brilliant. I hope they do more of them.

“How funny are Scotty and Nige, hilarious”

It’s a copy of this – and nowhere near as funny.

You’re going to share your awesome video right?

“GEE OUR ROADS ARE SMOOTH AND QUIET TO DRIVE ON”

Roundabouts! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Well done lads. Loved it. My favourites were: “Scott and Nige are funny” and the “NWBL”

Blumers kid, Mal Meninga is a lawyer.

First class!

look at the tits on her!

Charnwood is nice…

Bonus points to Tom for getting countless public servants to watch the video at work, but fail to notice the porn at 1:04-1:08..

Chifley…just past Woo-den LOL!

LOL at the video playing in the background when he arrives home from work!

I’m off to questacon!
