Yeah it is, but that's what you always call good mates.


when i was a kid the old blokes would call each other bastards

ie how are you you old bastard

this was used as a term of endearment :? :? :? :shock:

And your worst enemy was "a bit of a bastard". Got to love Australia.

I still use wacker, smac jr's nickname in fact.


tiger jr too :D

When we had a kingdom we were run by kings.
When we had an empire we were run by an emperor.
Now we are a country we are run by Margaret Thatcher... :lol:

A bit of trivia about the gorgeous Cupid.

Apparently the character was originally going to be called Mary Hinge but the BBC thought it was too obvious :lol:

Still can't find the name of that Aussie character he did. You'd think some fan would have made a list of ALL his characters by now :roll: :lol:

I have a book called "lost for Words" which is all about the Australian Language over the years and how its being lost to American-isms... great read, especially the part about rhyming slang...

you should give it a "captain cook" sometime! :wink: :lol:

Used "WACKER" in a sentence today and spun a few people out.
The comeback of WACKER has commenced! :D
