I mean, everyone knows that in January it’s hot in Australia, and in July it’s cold there.

But do Australians call it “winter” in January and “summer” in July? Or does just “winter” imply hot weather and beaches, and “summer” implies winter, eh, i mean, snow sports and wool socks.

And given that, most of the population lives in northern hemisphere, is there a body of dad jokes and culture tropes related to the fact that “we’re different”, or is it just too cringe and boring. (I realize both could be true on this one.)

    That’s actually really interesting, I had no idea. Do you have a link with the page to that image? It got jpeg’d and I’d like to read more.

    Edit: thanks for the links all, really appreciate it.
