Occasionally as an Australian you'll be talking to someone from overseas, and you'll discover a common phrase you took for granted is, in fact, not universally known outside of our country.

Turns out casually dropping "fuck me dead" into conversation will give unsuspecting Americans an aneurism.

The more you know.

Imagine being on a work call with an Aussie and they suddenly announce they're gonna blow a load in response to a problem.

Not Aussie but I asked an American once if she was taking the piss ( i.e. pulling my leg, joking. Perfectly cromulent and friendly english expression)

and she got really upset because she thought I was threatening to piss ON her

Having a sticky beak (Investigating)

Take a squiz (To have a sticky beak)

Get stuffed (To express a revelation is most frightful)

Chuck a sickie (Take a day off work due to the humours being misaligned)

Chuck a wobbly (When one's temperament becomes visibly upset)

Carry on like a pork chop (Acting most silly indeed)

Thongs (flip flops)

Hot chook (Pre-cooked supermarket rotisserie chicken, otherwise known as the Bachelor's Handbag)

Fair suck of the sauce bottle (Let's be real)

Shits me to tears (Something is mildly annoying)

Not here to fuck spiders (Expressing a situation is serious)

Having a piss-up (A social gathering)

I'll shout you (offering to goon an old chum)

A cruisy place (a relaxed atmosphere, where one might shout and goon the night away while enjoying many a gaytime in your favourite thongs)

The mile-long rainbow flag being carried down First Avenue in New York City.

“For New York City Pride in 1994 (Stonewall 25), Baker created a mile-long rainbow flag that was carried down First Avenue in Manhattan. During the parade, Baker used scissors to cut segments from the flag to be rushed to Fifth Avenue for an impromptu protest march in front of St. Patrick’s Cathedral, the headquarters of New York City’s anti-gay Catholic archdiocese.

I have made many mistakes in my life, and I continue to do so with depressing frequency, but at least I try to be aware of them and correct them when I can. I hope that's worth something in the grand scheme of things.

"Missing Man Table"

The symbolism of the Missing Man Table:

--The table is round, to show our everlasting concern for our missing men. --The cloth is white, symbolizing the purity of their motives when answering the call to serve. --The single red rose; displayed in a vase, reminds us of the lives of these Americans and their loved ones and friends who keep the faith while seeking answers. --The red ribbon symbolizes our continued determination to account for our missing. --A slice of lemon reminds us of their bitter fate --A pinch of salt symbolizes the tears of our missing and their families who long for answers after decades of uncertainty. --The lighted candle reflects our hope for their return. --The Bible represents the strength gained through faith to sustain us and those lost from our country, founded as one nation under God. --The glass is inverted, symbolizing their inability to share a toast. --The chair is empty, the seat that remains unclaimed at the table.
