This is like the person before, who gave the recipe for a "good quality" meat pie.

gently caress you! The whole point of a showbag is the throwaway plastic crap and borderline stale lollies.

But I do agree with you, as an adult, I dunno if I could stand a day at the show, with the crowds, and lugging about multiple heavy showbags with crying whingy kids in tow. But as a little kid, it was ace.

Best year was when we brought the huge pram and basically used it as a shopping trolley.

I still vaguely recall a time peeking into what I'm pretty sure were abandoned toilets in a semi vacant lot somewhere in southern Port Lincoln and the whole thing was covered in gigantic cobwebs, but not sure if that's cheating.

Kangaroos are mostly just bouncy deer. Like any wild animal, they'll defend themselves if they think humans are being aggressive, based on their standards, and feeding them is a bit of a crapshoot.

They're good eating, too.

You can even shoot it and make dinner. Again, basically bouncy deer.

You'd probably only want a bit of an emu egg. Share it with a few people. The whole thing would be like eating 15 normal eggs at once. I suppose if you're up for some kind of eating challenge thing then jump in.

Sounds efficient for Gaston, though!

I remember the science student was clearly studying to be some kind of bogan mad scientist. Basically Aussie Urkel.

I saw a lot more of the spinoff/sequel series Feral TV. I think a lot of that went over my head but they did a lot of riffs on pop culture that actually aged pretty well, like the Star Trek riff that ends up having problems getting filmed because they keep changing everything around.

Kind of the Australian attitude in a nutshell, where the whole 'larrakin' anything-goes attitude is a paper-thin veneer on being a tedious, touchy narc who loses their poo poo at the idea of anything actually new or unexpected happening.

Australian Halloween is fun since the sun sets at like 8:30pm and no one has any idea when to start or stop trick or treating so it goes from like 4 to 9.

Also the weather is often beautiful, if a bit hot for the more elaborate costumes.

Halloween is great. It's easy to participate in at any level, there's something for everyone of any age from cute costumes and free candy to an excuse to be a teenage hooligan to grown up sexy costume parties or just sitting at home watching spooky movies and giving out cheap candy.

There's nuances to it, yes. The implication is at least generally that you're getting cheap and/or low quality alcohol in sufficient qualities to get noticeably drunk.

From there, the language is colourful and ever-evolving to describe various degrees of severe alcohol abuse. 'Munted' is a favourite of mine.

Surprisingly accurate that Uluru is actually surrounded by bush. Also, there's a shitload of fossils in central Australia.
