A map of with County placed on it to give you a sense of just how large Australia is. Not sure folks get how massive Australia is until they see it compared to Cork.

@lyda this is fucking retarded. Cork is 7,508km^2 and Australia is 7,688,287 km^2.

@ozeng @lyda tell me you're an engineer without telling me you're an engineer.

@MarkDeasy @ozeng The mad thing is that I wasn't even trying to troll Australians.

I guess there are some people on Earth who Cork people have not told how wonderful Cork is. Honestly a little disappointed.

Kids today, etc.

@lyda @ozeng

There is a small but growing percentage of Australians who are 'self trolling'. No matter the input (even obvious humour) they'll squint at it, find something to be angry about, then trigger themselves into crankly mansplaining something.

Engineers are especially susceptible. As are men, those who consume the Murdoch media, and those who have never been to Cork.

@MarkDeasy @ozeng Not to worry you, but that kinda started happening a number of years ago in the US. It, uh, goes to some concerning places.

@ozeng @lyda I think you’re getting Australian kilometres and Irish kilometres mixed up there…

@sanityinc Based on the Cork folks I've met over the years, it's true in their hearts!

@lyda one island and one island to be!

@lyda waiting for the reply guys to tell me that Australia is a continent. You've obviously never met someone from cork.

@lyda I knew there was a reason it felt Cork stretched on forever!

@lyda Does Australia float as well as Cork?
