It's funny because when I got to my last 6 characters that I was lacking a custom move for, each character was on a different row and there are 6 rows in total.

So you're taking the Australian approach :troll:
If I were taking it the Australian approach, I'd be calling everyone mate and ride a kangaroo to various destinations. :4villager:

Here, have a gift. From that side of the internet. Be warned, as it destroys the sensitive.

I'd ask about the Echidna, but we all know what it does

Y'know, people say it's sexist when men stare and woman and say "compliments" to them and junk

and that women don't do the same with men, so it's some kind of double standard.

I, on the other hand, think that the reason women aren't doing it to men as well is because men aren't sexy

If they WERE women would do the same thing

Bob's your uncle is an Australian saying.
You failed the Australian lingo test
I knew it was a British saying, but I didn't know it was also used in Australia.
So my joke is also topical!
Not sure that qualifies, I hear that saying pretty often here in the US.
I never hear that saying.
Therefore you're not actually an American, now GET OUT OF OUR COUNTRY YE DAMN FOREIGNER

I've only heard that saying on TV, a cartoon maybe, and have no idea what it means

Well it is a common expression in both British and Commonwealth nations. It apparently originates from England and with the strong cultural ties, it's not suprising it has found common usage in Australia.

Then there's box jellyfish, cane toads, wolf spiders, blue-ringed octopus, sharks, crocodiles, and venomous snakes.

Huh, maybe people in Australia have reason to think everything is trying to kill them...

I've heard of "Bob's your uncle"! Then again I'm Canadian not American, so I guess that doesn't count since we're Commonwealth.

Cane toads trying to kill people? I mean sure they are a nuisance but unless you're dumb enough to eat them or ingest anything they produce you'll be fine.

Oh believe me, I stare at men all the time.

OH, I'M SORRY if I see shirtless guy wearing a toque in hot August, with wavy blonde hair to his shoulders, and wearing low pants standing next to me in line at the corner store, of course I'm going to stare at him!

I'M JOKING. I don't like to stare at people... I think it's kinda rude. But seriously... Canadian fashion these days. :rolleyes:

I'm pretty sure everyone is aware that most of the native animals in Australia are not, in fact, out to kill you.










At least that's what they want you to think.

I don't know whether to buy Final Fantasy Curtain Call or Pokemon Alpha Sapphire with my E Shop card. I'm too cheap for both...any advice? Curtain Call sounds like so much value with 200+ FF songs to play, and I'm hoping AS is an upgrade from Pokemon X in the 3D pokemon games somehow...

Hmm...I'm so torn.

Cane toads aren't native, they are an introduced pest
Ive heard "Bob's your uncle" before, in movies and stuff, but never really got it.
It is analogous to 'voila' or 'presto'. It is generally used to conclude a set of simple instructions or an explanation/summary

Well, not so much anymore I don't think. It's the sort of thing I'd be more likely to hear from my parents or grandparents than from someone my own age, and even then you don't hear it very often.

Edit: Look at Platinum's definition, that makes way more sense than what I was babbling about.

You took that straight from Wikipedia.
