Ask An Australian

kinoath.

Can any fellow Australian interpret this for me? Maybe it's regional:

"whazzat mate? You want me to give you a fair go? There's no need to bung it on with me, you stunned mullet. Your pals left you like a shag on the rock. You managed to sneak by the doorman but I know a ring-in when I see one. Once I reach into my utility pouch it's all over for you. You've got me hopping mad now."

"What was that, good sir? Do you implore justice in my judgement? Sir, you are an imbecile and, as such, your buffoonery is quite transparent. Your friends left you complete alone. You may have initially fooled them into acceptance but I can detect a charlatan when I see one. Prepare for the end, good sir. It will come at the hands of an item in my gentleman's pouch. Possibly a tool of some sort. You have certainly vexed me. "

Chuzwozzer.

where should I go in Canberra to drink good local craft beer and whisky

Sydney.

My man knows of what he speaks.

Wig and Pen in the CBD (Civic) isn't too bad.

For beer anyway.

Be aware that the assholes in Canberra dont let you smoke anywhere you can drink, not even outside :(

Awesome, Wig & Pen is just around the corner from where I'll be holed up.

so how was it?

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.
