Kiwi ingenuity

A term coined by New Zealanders, which supposedly implies that Kiwis good at coming up with solutions to any problem, typically in an unconventional, unusual or in such a way that uses whatever resource is available (I.e. being innovative).

New Zealanders have a habit for attaching the words “good ‘ol Kiwi” or “Kiwi” in front of a phrase, to artificially make themselves seem more interesting. To outsiders, it come across as deeply insecure - as if it is a necessity to make themselves sound more special than they are.

Immigrant 2: “Sounds more like good ol Kiwi bullshit”
