We don't tip

Quite a bit of nonsense in the Australian section, lol.

The "thumbs up" gesture is also considered obscene.

Huh? Thumbs up means good.

Always arrive on time or a few minutes early for a dinner.

Or, any time within half an hour late, lol.

Do not say "I'm stuffed" after a meal. This means you are pregnant.

Nope.

quote:

Soup should be eaten by moving the spoon away from you, not toward you.

What does that even mean?

It means you've been eating your soup wrong! I'm sure you've heavily offended all your Australian friends by now.

I'm not a native speaker, but I assume this means you should feed the person in front of you, and vice-versa.

If you're alone, then just don't have soup. Oh, about the hand gesture: maybe that's just in one area or with older folks. Eddie Murphy told me the "OK" sign was okay... until I blithely made this sign to my dad and almost got beaten up

It means that in Australia, you move the soup spoon up and forward way from your body, drop the soup by turning the spoon upside down, and attempt to lurch forward and catch the falling soup with your mouth.
