Partly-Baked Ideas

[TarnishedPenny]

Just stuff being flung off the spinning hamster wheel that is my mind of late. Other input and notions would be welcome.

To start - Aussies are so interesting because all the blood pooling in their brains from living upside-down makes them more intelligent.

It's not that, it's three hundred years of selective breeding caused by a country where every single living thing is intent on killing you. Australia is the land of the Quick or the Dead - literally.

I always joke about South Africa that it's full of creatures that were almost-but-not-quite-nasty-enough to make it across to Down Under. Aussie stuff will fuck you up, SA stuff will just make you wish it had killed you instead.

Though, I've got to say that we do beat the Aussies in one specific metric - we've got Hippos, and they don't have their own murder pig analogue. But then they do have Cassowaries, so it's kind of moot anyway...

It's probably not that it makes them more intelligent, just that it stops the blood going to other parts of their body that make them do stupid things.

Objection, Your Honor! Allow me to proffer clear and unambiguous evidence to the contrary:

The English had clearly failed at finding and dispatching to their penal colony all who harbored such abominable ideas.

Narrator: It was, in fact, an English Plot to spread the divine taste of Marmite to the entire world. For, as the sun never set on the British Empire, in every hour of the day an English Gentleman would sip his gin, and find contentment with his plate of toast soldiers and some Marmite to dip them into.

 

[StillStunned]

Gin and Marmite. If you want to understand where the Blitz Spirit came from, look no further.

This is, of course, true. Plus being one day ahead of you jokers. Keep up .

Consider yourself corrected: Razorback

Also, mostly emus rather than your average cassowary.

Plus, saltwater crocodiles.

Finally, funnel-web and red-back spiders, red bellied blacks and brown snakes, that fucker jellyfish lives up north, drop bears. Cane toads (don't ever lick them, their toxin is a hallucinogenic, apparently).

A simple error of perspective. As history is written by victors, up and down as the world is perceived is spoken of by the inhabitants of the hemisphere. We aussies are on top of the world. We are also dumb as dog shite and that's why we're all so happy. We're only interesting because we simply don't give a fuck and tend to say whatever the hell we like.

I'll have you know that we have quite healthy blood flow and that we also get more kisses, "down under".

I have to say, a stranger reading some of the posts would probably think most of us are more just partly baked.

I have never had a bun in the oven, for which I am profoundly thankful.

In Australia, do the hamsters spin their wheels in the other direction?

Oh, dear! Another thing to cross off my bucket list!

Can confirm. I'm the stranger.

This basically summarizes the appeal of Ozzy Man's YouTube videos, which consist mainly of rebroadcasting dumb shit on video, like pandas falling over, and saying "Fuck!" to it as often as possible.

Of course, I think it's hilarious, which I suppose says something about me.

We don't keep hamsters as pets. We have quokkas.


(Seriously, hamsters are an illegal import.)

Quokka's like, "Hell no I'm not running on that wheel. I'm going to rip your face off, mate."

Dare I say you were the bun that broke the oven...
