In Australia, everything is backwards: water goes down the drain counter-clockwise, "Foster's" means "beer" instead of just plain "swill," and Joan Rivers is funny, instead of just old.
Of course, it doesn't hurt that she's also screamingly drunk.
Check out this clip of Joan belligerently presenting an award at the Logies (evidently some Australian TV awards thingy. I could research it, but honestly what's the point?).

Basically, Australia is the bizarro United States.
In other news, if you just watched that clip (and you should), your YouTube-video-of-a-comedian-giving-a-funny-speech quota has been fulfilled for this week.
Congratulations.
