I'd completely forgotten about this show and it's kind of hard to deal with the fact that it's almost 20 years old now.

I had a Golliwog when I was a toddler. My grandmother knitted it for me. She was very racist.

Out of all the people on Fat Pizza how is it that she's the one to become an international star? I stopped watching network tv and paying attention to the broader culture sometime around the mid 2000s so I totally missed how she blew up.

It's amazing that to this very day nobody knows who was in TISM or if they survived the bus crash.

This clip is the perfect microcosm of late 90s Australia.

I'd totally forgotten about 28 Days and I don't want to suggest that Limp Bizkit basically stole their act but they did.

What the hell was happening in Australia in the 80s that the government felt the need to put out a massive campaign to convince the public to do something. T-shirt printing? Cross country skiing? Sit down? Do some knitting? What the gently caress? We're people just sitting around staring at the wall for 16 hours a day? No wait they had to have been standing because they specifically advise people to sit down in the ad.

Me too but I remember it being more health and fitness oriented in the 90s. That one has a line that is literally "sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit".

I can never find a decent chicken salt at the supermarkets. I've probably tried every band at Coles and Woolworths over the past few years. They're okay, but nothing really impresses me.

Go the Asian section of Coles and get the "chicken powder". It's basically chicken salt with extra msg.

That's the stuff. It's a pretty big container full though. I can't imagine you'd need to buy more for a decade.

MSG is the important part of chicken salt.

It is, but if you check out what's sold as chicken salt almost none of it has msg or very much msg.

People of a certain age and cultural background hate grass that's longer than 2 inches for some reason. If you have a lawn consider ripping it up and replacing it with anything else/nothing at all.

They're real estate agents of course they're awful but do you think they know that everyone thinks that? I don't think they do. I think all of their friends are either in real estate or marketing or property development and they have no idea how universally hated they are.

You're probably too young to remember the time she personally busted a dole bludger skiving off at the pub instead of looking for work. Or the time she confronted a single mother with children by different fathers as she was picking said children up from school.

Of course blue jelly existed back then. I can't remember what blue aeroplane jelly was called. Not blueberry or anything obvious. It was like cumquat or.. I can't remember.

I didn't remember what one was until I looked it up just now. It's not a word I've heard outside of a packet of aeroplane jelly.

It's a native Australian fruit that I think only grows in the desert. You can't buy them anywhere except maybe speciality "health food" shops or something.
