I've heard that practically everywhere but the U.S. Makes some us want to travel though

Thats why i was surprised it is Illegal there.... due to the fact it is cool everywhere else in the world

i like boobies!

We've got too many old politicians that can't

Talking? Sorry, Bondi, I'm not trying to make fun of a mistake. I'm just trying to understand the sentence. I like tailing topless beaches, too. I just haven't found any to tail.

I have heard that there are some topless beaches in Florida and Califorinia. They're not really legal, but more either overlooked or hard to enforce due to there location.

You're right. The US is very conservative regarding toplessness on the beach or elsewhere. They finally had to pass laws just to allow mothers to nurse in public. I would love to totally blame the Christian right about this issue but I can't because there are members of the liberal left who would problably in their own perverse way find some issue about nudity being somehow anti-woman....Don't ask for logic because there isn't any.

You have a great day, mate.

Hi I am new to the boards. I am an aussie and thought id jump and and let you know they do still make these They have changed the name though to "Fads"

My sister and I had a "back to childhood" party recently and found heaps of the lollies we used to eat as a kid

Hi, Meld. Welcome to RMM. What is a "lollie" Or is it "Lolly?"

Thanks and yes I mean lolly Theya re really yummy but im suprised they still sell them. Oh and they dont have the red tip anymore. The old ones used to look like real smokes

Well welcome to another Aussie... G'day mate

Yeah they still do make that stuff but like u said, back before the days of political correctness they really did look like ciggarettes.

So where in Oz u from?

Evade.... I tried to read ur post but was distracted by the emoticons... have u set a new world record???

Crack a Fat:

For a male to get an Erection

i.e Have a look at that chick over there.! I think I am going to crack a fat!

Sounds like the chronic condition of Yank tourists on Aus beaches

Good phrase Bondi!

if u have seen the women here it wouldn't matter where u came from.... there are fats being cracked all over the shop.

But yeah u seppo's are the worst! haha jk

The OZ word for next week?

haha could be? Only 1 word per week haha

hmm, that's an odd name. I'd have called it a "chazzwazzer".

Nice to see at least three different colonies of ours attempting to further mutilate their mother tongue!!

Cigarettes are known as fags, and the butts are called fag ENDS!

Faggots are traditionally made of liver & onions mixed with suet and breadcrumbs and I believe the name originates from Welsh for 'mixture'

I assume that meld is referring to sweet cigarettes - over here they have lost that so realistic red tip (well I thought so when I was a kid....breathing out on a cold day and pretending that you were really smoking - ha!), and are now enticing known as 'candy sticks'....I suppose 'cancer sticks' wouldn't sell so well....?

Septic tanks... , variation on cockney rhyming slang, and not 'specially Oz...

We have a far superior version of vegemite - the original, known as Marmite!

"With its unusual and unique flavor, Vegemite was not an immediate success and sales were slow. In 1928 Vegemite was renamed and registered as Parwill in an attempt to boost its sales and to attract customers of the rival spread Marmite (an English yeast spread that dominated the Australian market since 1910). "If Marmite...then Parwill" was the rationale behind Walker's strategy to carve a niche in the market for his spread. The name Parwill and Walker's play on words didn't catch on. It was only sold as Parwill for a short time in Queensland. The name was withdrawn in 1935, and the original name was reinstated."



C'mon Bondi....let's hear some proper Oz expressions...

Darn, Bondi didn't show yet. I hope your feeling OK. Your pet frog made it here though.

Frog...? There are French people here too?

hope your doing well with the lingo bondiboy,you didnt want any other aussis involved and now sweetnsexy is really giving it to ya!!!!!!!!!
Ratt tried to chat an all to ya ..... this is gonna be really funny...

Well SnS you should know that most of our sayings are derived from the motherland as that's is where most Aussies used to come from.

Marmite is also a terrible product but it's more about what you grew up with.

Rhyming slang is a wonderful thing is it not???

Anyway, I was trying to ease the Yanks in but if you want some real Aussie sayings here goes...

Fair Dinkum
Bogan
Tinnie
Dero
Dole Bludger
Dunny
Durry
Grouse
Map of Tassie
In the Nuddy
Old fella
Sheila
Bloke
Slab
Yobbo


etc etc



I am not even sure what that means. That looks like a Cane Toad/Bullfrog and they are not native to Australia



You really baffle me.... If you have ever taken me seriously you have made your first mistake

sweetnsexy can give it to me all she likes.... I Love It! and I know she is only pulling my chain.... which again, I love!

What the fuck does Ratt have to do with anything that was mentioned in the last 5 posts or in this thread at all???

Sorry being a "Yank" I only know about 2 of those words.

Yeah, you SHOULD be sorry.

I'll be sorry every day if you're going to treat me like that.

thats the point! haha

which 2?

bloke and sheila

you didn't know those two?

I thought everyone knew those.

No, those were the 2 that I know

Oh......... *hanging my head in shame*

You can put your head on my shoulder if it helps.

ahhh.... good!

The Sheilas on this site are fucking bonza

If I knew what bonza was I would agree completely with you, but knowing your tastes in sheilas I'm still going to agree.

trust me.... its a good thing

*resting shoulder on belicked shoulder*

Two of my favourites are 'chunder' and, especially, the 'one-eyed trouser snake'...been practicing my snake charming routine for ages!!!

ahh chunder.... and aren't there many forms of saying expressing that phrase! Ofcourse your fav would be the cockney slang... "Up and Under"
or
driving the porcelain bus
calling for charlie
having a yak


by the way.... you can practice charming my snake if u like

I'm practicing!!

and I'll practice on my aim!

This week's word isn't really Aussie but it's a phrase that has come in to vogue here in Sydney and as far as I am aware you guy's dont know it.

"Muffin Top"

When a larger woman wears low cut jeans or other pants that are too tight and her fat rolls hang over the side of the jeans/pants. Just like a muffin top hangs over the muffin stub. Can you picture it?

i.e "look at that chick's muffin top"

actually have heard that before and unfortunately it seemed to be quite the trend round here for some reason. Luckily it seems girls have realized it wasn't all that flattering for them.

Sometimes I am sure people live in places where there are no mirrors!


Will have to get a new word for you all

I've never heard that term for it. That's a serious wardrobe malfunction...but it is not just a female problem... The male parallel problem is plumbers butt. The guys beer belly holds his waist line so low that his ass crack shows. There is a catalogue company ( http://www.duluthtrading.com/ ) in the US that sells work clothing including extra long tailed T-shirts to cover the exposed ass crack.

evade.... not quite the same thing but we call that here... "tradies cleavage"

Yeah...that expression (muffin top) has been around a while here...

what anout... I wanna get in ur pants sweetnsexy? has that expression been around?

Ya, kinda like, "is that a mirror in your pocket cause i can see myself in you pants!!!"

I do believe that I might have come across that and about 100 variations!! But...is this one of the cross thread things, where you were talking about wearing a thong??

I think the American version of "muffin top" is love handles.

I think Fair dinkum is like saying "certainly" or "you bet". But it's been a while.....
