This post is more for me than anything else.
Strange little differences between the States and Australia.
When something is on TV and it's called a Premier in the US, it's the first episode of a brand new show. Worth watching. When it's called a Premier in Australia, it just means that station hasn't aired it before. So premier screenings of movies on TV in Australia are not always new. They could be 5 years old, just never screened before.
When you say "Fix me up" at a bar in Australia, it generally means, fix up the tab, I want to pay. In the US it seems to mean, fix me another drink bartender.
Breaking news in Australia, means wow, stop what you're doing, this is big and serious and you need to know. Breaking news in the States means, this is new information which you haven't heard before. If it's not breaking news, it's something that has been reported on all day already.
There are so many others I can't think of right now, but I thought I'd start the list while those were on my mind.
