2. Pato:

Spanish slang used in Panama and other central american countries that defined a homosexual male.

Ese man es manso pato.
That man is very gay.

Yep King of the pato's mr King Boy

thats not a question

And not even Australian-related.

what the fuck

is john howard going to win this election? what happened to kim beazley? THX!!xoxoxox

No, because we have RUDDMANIA!! Kim Beazley was harpooned by Japanese whalers. No probs. XXOXOXOOXX

On teh news last night they were saying that it could be a Labor landslide at this stage.

And yes, non-Australians, that is how the Australian Labor Party spells Labor, ok?

Also they were saying in a poll that 85% of Labor voters feel that Rudd's strip club visit shows him to be a "normal aussie bloke" or some shit like that.

why does "Australian Labor Party" spell labour wrong?

From teh Wiks:

While it is standard practice in Australian English to spell the word labour with a u, the Party has spelt it without since Labor cabinet minister King O'Malley thought he would "modernise" the name;[6] at the time, it seemed likely that Australia would move to American spellings.

^that was in 1912.

that is how we spell labor in the USA.

Yep, hence the "Labor cabinet minister King O'Malley thought he would "modernise" the name;[6] at the time, it seemed likely that Australia would move to American spellings."

I know americans spell like that, but australians are our brothers in english spellings.

Maybe King O'Malley should've tried modernizing the name.

super karachi bros

touche xp.

I like that we had a minister called King O'Malley. He sounds like he should be Moomba king or some shit :D

oh i just remembered my mums sent pp a cd called "AUSTRALIAN LEGENDS" with a lot of these songs on it. Want me to ysi?

plz.

Also, these all seem like great suggestions so far and I'm very appreciative, but its not like an Aussie party or anything. It's just a club gig in a place that usually doesn't have a dj. And on this particular night there will be an abundance of Australians. So, non-aussie suggestions that might go over well is encouraged.

that age group? anything 80s.

;-)

Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd said: "Winning the right to host the 2018 Fifa World Cup is a Herculean task, but overcoming tough odds is what Australian football does best."

Australians, can you please provide me with some examples of these tough odds being overcome because I sure as fuck can't think of any.

Flying out Saturday. Are there any kinds of American candy that Australians like and can't easily get a hold of?

Flying to the land of Tim Tams and Kinder Surprise, and you ask them if they want Reese's Pieces?

yeah, I don't know what I was thinking.

Yes, that's a glob of Nerd-spiked Nutella on a stick.

I mean if you get all the wonka stuff, sour patch kids and now all the haribo shit is available there, I'm basically out of options! Thank goodness for this now-defunct blog about candy in Australia (http://lollyaddict.blogspot.com/)

I used to be excited to get those spicy cinnamon bullet things when people visited from America, but I went to the US each of the last three years and didn't even think of them

You mean these things?

America sure is known for some gross shit.

Who was the guy who used to call Tombot "Reese's Pieces" b/c El Tomboto = E.T.? What a trip.

Oh, maybe that's the solution. I could bring Atomic Fire Balls

Bring some northwestern beers and local artisanal doughnuts imo

Veg has an Australian friend visiting. She might have some good ideas.
