Why is Australia considered lucky despite the deadly animals

Level 53

because that's a stereotype and not all that common

A guy wrote a book about Australia called The Lucky Country. Like most people here, however, I immediately clicked Ireland because of the luck of the Irish. 😂

I got my only 996 on that one, due to a earlier DTC question on it! I didn't even stop to read the other countries

Similar, I got 993 for the same reason.

It was meant to be a criticism as well, the quote from the book is "Australia is a lucky country run mainly by second rate people who share its luck."

The author wasn't too happy that many Australians mistook it as a compliment, once saying "I have had to sit through the most appalling rubbish as successive generations misapplied this phrase".

This is a great fact. As someone who was born and raised in Australia and is thankful I no longer live there, I look forward to trotting this out the next time it comes up.

Maybe you're lucky for even being alive while there's that many deadly animals nearby

The Lucky Country by Donald Horne, 1964. He argued that Australia thrived despite poor management. Struck a chord. And the animals are no problem.

i think that Switzerland is considered as a happy country because is also peaceful due to something,but happy and peaceful isn't same so this makes no sense.

4/10

Let's just say I didn't do too good.

"Unbelievably low score" some might say.

Can't I just get a 10/10 for once?

Kicking myself for not getting the last question correct.

You know, I think I'll accept what I got.

The Cooler sure was a movie. I remember William H. Macy in a dingy hotel room/apartment, and being just generally sad and lonely. I cannot remember much else, aside from him being bad luck for the casino patrons. 🤔

8/10 for me today, I didn't know the William H Macy movie, and I knew the Chinese unlucky number was either 4 or 8 but I guessed wrong. You could say I wasn't lucky today 😅

"Luck of the Irish"? The last 800 years suggest otherwise.

Feb 26, 2025
8/10. Like a lot of people said Ireland. And, on the latin one, I used process of elimination, but apparently incorrectly. Fortis means strong, Sanctus sounded like healthy, and I thought Felix was happy. Didn't know what lex was, so chose that.

3/10. The theme wasn't with me.

Level 64

4/10, which I think is the worst I've ever done. With the first question I was really hoping the theme would be Shakespeare, but no such luck.

LOL I picked the right answer most of the time, and in two cases picked the very popular wrong answer. On just one question I picked an unpopular wrong answer--the MUSIC question. I'm CLUELESS about any music after 1996!

I managed to get 9/10 which beats or equals 99% users. I guessed on some questions (questions 6 and 8 ). You could say that I got pretty lucky...

Only 11 % got the Lucky Country right. Must be one of the hardest questions ever on Daily Trivia. And yes, I clicked Ireland also.

8/10 today. As a New Zealander, I am well familiar with the term 'the lucky country' being ascribed to Australia. I missed questions 8 and 10.

Me too. Dunno why though, with their bushfires, snakes and other creatures that can kill you.

I got 7. Missed 3, 7 and 10.
