shire

area in sydney where all of the white trash live. Famous for rioting, bigotted attitudes and racism. Most of the population have southern cross tattoos and/or stickers on their cars with slogans such as "australia - love it or leave it".

Common sayings include "we grew here, you flew here" - the idiots obviously don't realise that with the exception of aboriginal people, we all flew or sailed here in the last few hundred years. Laughing stock of sydney. If i was from there, i would lie about it.
Sutho idiot 1 "hey do you wanna go riot on the beach?"

Sutho idiot 2 "yeah, i heard there was some kids who weren't white, lets go bash em"

Sutho idiot 1 "yeah, lets go. Oh, if only hitler were still alive to see this"

Sutho idiot 2 "If Hitler was still alive he would totally live in the shire"
