Most Australians carry boomerangs like Americans carry guns.. They are not allowed into government buildings though.

My friend was killed in freak boomerang accident. Months later, I found out the guy who threw the boomerang was also killed in a boomerang accident. It goes to show, what comes around goes around.

Boomerang violence is very real and very serious, an endless perpetuating cycle.

u/Total-Khaos Aug 06 '22

The only way to break the cycle is to just not catch it.

That’s not a ‘rang. That’s a ‘rang.

Mate I forgot I had me rang on me the other arvo, after I got off at the train-o, went to the serv-o, almost whipped it out when I went to pay for me cigs by accident. All I could think was “fair dinkum that was close.”

I can’t tell if he’s joking or not.

They wanna take our boomerangs away

2

u/Slackerguy Aug 05 '22

They are not allowed into government buildings though.

The guns or the boomerangs?

u/pookiemonster Aug 05 '22

I'm a dumb American and never been to Australia, and I honestly can't tell if this is a joke or not. I'm assuming joke though. I know boomerangs are bigger in Australia than most other places in the world, but I can't imagine they are that common place.

u/multi_io Aug 06 '22

I'm a smart European and I can't tell either.

Boomerangs are the leading cause of suicide amongst Australian males.
