Does Outback Steakhouse have any actual connection to Australia outside of a marketing gimmick?

AFAIK they have Australian franchises (I haven't seen any though). They started out in Florida though.

Kind of expected that. Like the place though.

Their dark (rye?) bread is so delicious, one time I ate like 7 loaves for dinner, nothing else...

How and why is having a fantasy life necessarily a 'sad' thing?

Because the users usually arent successful in real life and must use a virtual world to fit in.

The way you've formulated that sentence insinuates that you like it in spite of it being Australian

Not really. I have nothing against Australia. It's more of a factor that if the place was genuine Australian, rather than pseudo Australian, I'd like it a bit more. Food wise the place is good. But advertising wise, it gets kinda old that they keep harping on an Australian connection that does not exist.

What is Australian cuisine anyways?

Normal food with beetroot and eggs fecked on it?

 

[Takhisis]

Antyhing to do with sheep and beer, I'd guess.

Kangaroo meat is obviously a part of it.

 

[Takhisis]

Oy, Yared, weren't you the one asking in the thread #10 about kangaroo meat some time ago?

 

[Yared]

Probably

There's a picture in the wiki-article of a grocery store showing kangaroo meat.

No idea. Outback Steakhouse in the US is a steak and potatoes kind of place. It's pretty good streak and potatoes, but I have no idea how Australian it is.

Playing a cassette, it started making really strange noises. When the cassette player was opened up there was tape all over the place. I managed to roll it all back in.

Would it be safe to put the tape in the player again?

What are some good sources for a research paper on the topic: “What are the effects of social programs on society, in both scale and application?”

I need five sources, and five facts from each. I would prefer it to be split 2-3 in terms of political content, so as to keep the paper mostly-neutral.

I already chose the Heritage Foundation for a conservative source.

Any other good suggestions?
