There's a lot I didn't know about the process. It'd be interesting to get the view of US members of this community.

You don't know the meaning of Seppo

Yeah, I live in the US and, like most of us, can't afford to see other countries, so I haven't had the pleasure of hearing it said to my face.

Mine was a hugely stupid totally Finland-based joke that nobody outside needs to understand. The guy in the picture is named Seppo, from a Finnish day-time soap opera.

Sorry.

Yeah no need to apologize xD I thought it was just a random reaction image but that's really funny

Overseas News

A place for Australians and friends to share news from the other countries. Like all communities here, we discuss topics from the Australian perspective.

If you're looking for a global /c/worldnews instead, search for the many options on federated instances.

Rules
  1. Follow the aussie.zone rules
  2. We are not a generic World News clone. News must be relevant to Australians and our region. Obvious disregard will earn an warning and then a ban if continued. (If an article isn't from an Oceanian news outlet, and it doesn’t mention Australia, then it’s probably off-topic)
  3. Leave seppocentrism at the door. If you don't know what that means, you're not ready to post here yet.
  4. Avoid editorialising headlines. Opinions go in the comments, not the post.
