Note it says it is NOT an April Fool joke, just extreme bad taste

You cant outrun the world, but there is no harm in getting a head start

Real stupidity beats artificial intelligence every time.

They said it's "limited" - it will thus sell out quickly to those who think it will go up in value, with time, and those who want to feel they are special.

It's the same way with my Beanie Baby collection.
I've spent $$ Billions on those, but I am bound to make $$ Millions soon! Sigh | :sigh:

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Saffer or Aussie?

There is a Lady down the School and it's been bugging me for ages because I can't work out if she is South African or Aussie from her accent.

For example, this morning she was "farting with her Hoover" when in fact she was struggling with her Vacuum Cleaner?

Is that Aussie or Saffer?

Cornelius Henning20-Mar-15 2:31

20-Mar-15 2:31

Why not ask her?
South Africans use terms like "Eish" (to express unpleasant surprise) or "Aag Shame" (to express pity).
She sounds Aussie to me.

As far as I know we (South Africans) haven't called anything a Hoover in 20 years.

My plan is to live forever ... so far so good

Interesting... we refer to a dog in the house as a portable Hoover... especially at meal times!

"... a dog in the house" sounds like another euphemism to me.

Okay, so what did you *really* mean?

With the speed the do it, they're called "Hoovers".

Half my [extended] family are the offspring of deported tatty takers. Laugh | :laugh:

My maternal grandfather was one of 8 and 5 of them went out to Oz, two in the early 20's and the other three in the late 40's. Between them they've bred like people who have nothing better to do of an evening and we can now pretty well visit any inhabited area of Oz and find a relative to stay with.
There's bloody hundreds of 'em and the worst part is they keep coming here to visit.

Ok, you have to translate for me: "Tatty taker": Is that a potato eater?

Try "potato stealer", qv thief.

Not really, they went by the Ryan Air of the day[^].
