The video was titled 'Picnics in Australia be like', with caption, "Tell me you live in Australia without telling me you live in Australia. I found this gem on our hard drive, it was a couple years ago but still makes me laugh. He was clearly not impressed with the lack of meat on our cheese platter but that last clip was personal, he just had to destroy every last bit hahaha".

Another user wrote, "Comes in, wrecks everything, doesn't eat anything but licks it so you can't, leaves"
