Ahem, I do believe that New Zealand is growing up and a very very worthy friend to Australia and always has been and therefore is worthy of respect. My version goes like this. A few people in New Zealand do tend to be juvenile towards Australia, however, some Australians tend to respond to that (or start it) by being arrogant. That aside, New Zealand has provided a great deal of assistance to Australia with regards to East Timor, Solomon Islands, etc. and therefore, neither patronising attitudes, nor a chip on the shoulder will not help. It has taken time, but New Zealand is growing up, hopefully encouraged to do so by many Australians, instead of being thought of as a child.
Australian 1: Instead of wanting to be isolationist and juvenile, New Zealand is growing up.
Australian 2: Come again?
Australian 1: East Timor, Solomon Islands, it was just that lack of confidence that held them back.
Australian 2: Oh right, well that's good to hear, I was wondering when NZ would grow the fuck up.

Get the New Zealand mug.A small group of islands inhabited by a few million people and a ton of sheep. The people of New Zealand call the brown fuzzy fruit kiwis, the brown furry bird Kiwis and themselves? Also Kiwis. These small islands rightly claim to have the best rugby team in the world and a few world famous figures (such as Lorde). Of course they have also the fizzy drink that tastes like Sprite - L and P (world famous in NZ) Bottom line is, they're pretty unimportant according to the rest of the world and amazing according to them.

Get the New Zealand mug.A country composed of two mainlands and multiple island groups. Stereotypically, kiwis are racist, but that's not always the case, just like every kiwi caring about rugby or the America's Cup.
Person One: Are you excited for the trip to New Zealand?
Person Two: Yes, maybe we should vist the Waitangi Marae while we're there.

Get the New Zealand mug.A term coined by Kiwis which refers to something average that nobody else in the world gives a fuck about except New Zealanders,.
It is used to make said thing sound more interesting and beloved than it actually is.

Man 1: Have you been to that obscure attraction in the rural obscure town?
Man 2: Yeah! It’s world famous in New Zealand
Man 2: Yeah! It’s world famous in New Zealand

Get the World famous in New Zealand mug.Land of beauty in the South Pacific next to Australia. There are some Australians who think NZ is shit, and lay lots of it on NZ because they don't really know anything about it. I hope they're not all like that as in all honesty NZ is pretty damn awesome.
Aussie: "NZ is crap"
2nd Aussie: "Oath."
Aussie: "No there's lots of Aussies who are with me on this one."

Get the New Zealand mug.A naturally blessed country in the south seas next to Australia. There are some Australians who think NZ's not worth a pinch of shit, and lay lots of it on NZ because they don't know any better. I hope there are only a minority of Australians who feel like this, as in all honesty NZ is pretty damn awesome. Also, many Kiwis tend to hate Australia because they think Australians dislike NZ. Hopefully it isn't too widespread.
Aussie 1: New Zealand's not worth a pinch of shit!
Aussie 2: Oath
Aussie 1: No there's lots of Aussies who think that.
