Either one is way too greasy to be healthy

Hey Aussies! (fluff)

by DanTheMan in

is ac/dc popular in their homeland?

they are very much a staple of rock radio in the u.s. i hear the song "back in black" at least once every 3 or 4 days.. "i come from a land down under" by men at work still gets air time on the light rock and 80's music stations.. i'd also like to ask british posters if led zep is popular over there.

they get played even more than ac/dc over here.. .

Dan:

Split Enz are NOT Aussies, they are New Zealanders anyone who tells you otherwise is a liar.

For all the facts on Vegimite see this thread:

Anyone who claims Split Enz or Crowded House are Aussie bands can f*ck off. They are KIWI's!
Bic Runga rocks!
Air New Zealand is not responsible for the demise of Ansett, the Aussies sold them a dud.
Peter Andre an XJW??? OMG, do we really want to publicise that?? He might start posting here.
The America's Cup is (and will continue to be) in the possession of New Zealand. After we win it again in a few months time, the race will be renamed the New Zealand Cup! (We're sorry about the trophy getting mangled by a radical Maori activist a while back but we had it fixed and you can hardly see the marks now).

The world according to the United States

Marmite is the Kiwi version of Vegemite. It's made by a pack of mad Seventh Day Adventists in South Auckland who run a company called Sanitarium (actually they're a very rich bunch of mad SDA's). They also make a range of very popular breakfast cereals.

Many dubs won't buy Sanitarium products because the religious organisation actually controls the business, then again many still buy the stuff anyway. The factory is closed on Saturdays.

Both Marmite and Vegimite taste like shit but you get used to it. Vegimite tastes slightly better than Marmite IMHO. They are both a good cure for dandruff. No you don't wash your hair with it, you eat it. It contains Selenium which is the main ingredient in anti-dandruff shampoo. So a slice of toast and Marmite/Vegimite a day keeps dandruff at bay.
