I heard Australians all drink beer and herd kangaroos and wrestle crocs all day, and there's no internet because it's too hot all the time and they don't have electricity anyway.
So I voted no.
You're my hero. (btw Hobart sucks

Well, if we're bigger than Antarctica then we ARE the biggest island continent, and since Australia is referred to as the biggest island in the world I guess we must be.
I used to think "Surely the Africa/Europe/Asia land mass is the biggest island" but then I found out that an island isn't just a body of land surrounded by water, it also has to be smaller than a continent
So it can't really be that Australia can be both an island AND a continent... but we ARE! That just shows how damn cool we are
"Australians all let us rejoice..."
EDIT: According to Wikipedia, Antarctica is larger than both Australia and Europe... I guess we do suck after all
unless the article included the surrounding ice, and the actual rock is smaller than us... I don't know, I'm not a cobbler.
Now excuse me, a croc is trying to get at my pet kangaroo *grabs his machete and akubra (it's a type of hat... made out of rabbit skin)*
