We were out looking at floats (horse trailers) yesterday near Joadja. A commercial comes on the radio...
Some bloke looked up at the mountains, saw that there was snow on the mountains, and said, "Gee - let's call these the Snowy Mountains". Another bloke looked at his house plant, saw that it was in a pot and said, "look - a pot plant".
The commercial is only about half way through, and I'm already in hysterics. You see I'm about the only person around here rolling in laughter and wondering why there isn't a queue of college students getting their picture taken under the POT PLANT SALE sign at the BONG BONG Nursery. [In the states, a pot plant is a marijuana bush and a bong is a type of hookah].
Anyway the commercial continues...
In the spirit of these great Australians, we [an unnamed global fast food company symbolized by golden arches], invite you all to visit our website at www [.........] dot com dot a-u and name our new hamburger meal.
I go through some amusing mental choices... like MicroMeal, seeing as how their flagship meal on this side of the pond isn't much larger than the basic 99 cent sandwich in the states. But Amanda (born Australian) doesn't even hesitate....
"Turd Burger".
