Cane toads aren't native, they are an introduced pest

It is analogous to 'voila' or 'presto'. It is generally used to conclude a set of simple instructions or an explanation/summary

Interesting. The more you know.

 

[Logsmash]

You took that straight from Wikipedia.

Wikipedia knows all.



It's not as funny as Uncyclopedia, though.

Which is why they aren't deadly

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.

Normally it's an expression for when events flow smoothly or a task becomes more simplified than before. For example, if a friend was going to have to take 3 buses to go somewhere on a tight schedule, but you happen to be going in that direction anyway and can give them a ride, you might say "Hey don't worry about it. I'm going that way, I can give you a ride. You save bus tickets and time, we stop at Tim's on the way, and we both get to where we're going on time. Bob's your uncle".

It's a poor example, but that's my understanding of how it's used.

It's used more either in place of an outcome or before saying what happens in order to emphasise the simplicity of things.
Some examples from TV and literature:
"He opens the box, sees the doll, Bob's your uncle, his heart just stops."
"Hit some buttons, sit back, Bob's your uncle."

You took that straight from Wikipedia.

I've known what the expression has meant for ages I'm Australian, it would be illegal not to. I went to Wikipedia to look up its origins and just now some examples of its use. Wikipedia's simple explanation for it did help in me expressing it, as all I could think of saying at the time was it's like saying presto. It's not everyday I have to try and explain a part of my own idiom.

But I think we can all agree that the blobfish is the best animal that ever lived ever.

Ahh, the blobfish. In my IT class in year 10 we had to make a form of digital media. I made a video game and included a blobfish as the final boss.

 

[Logsmash]

"What's a blobfish?" I asked myself.

"Go to Google!" I told myself.


It looks like the worst possible outcome of a combination of Kirby and a Mr. Saturn.

They look much less 'kill me now' underwater.

Just made a Ridly Mii Gunner. I don't have the Dragon-related helmet/suit, so I'll have to stick with a regular suit and Samus' Helmet for now. Seems to work. For now.

 

[RamOne]

Talking about Ridley, I dreamed about him last night. I was playing a Metroid dating game.

I think I'l stick with Purple Charizard, personally.

Samus: I like big wings and I cannot lie.

Ah, the failed version of Ridley. If his name ain't Ridley on the screen, it just doesn't count. No two ways about it.

But as a Mii, Ridley is too small

 

[RamOne]

I googled Ridley Mii and I got this:

Why?

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

But as a Mii, Ridley is too small

Heh. But yeah, size clearly matters none. I just wish I stopped getting lame repeats of outfits. :| If you can't sell them, why let you get those?

 

[Knuckles the Knuckles]

Likely to pad out play time, which is kinda a lame design choice.

 

[RamOne]

^ I understand that choice, but at the same time I don't. Of course it has been done this way to improve play time, but I think there are a lot of people who go '**** it' after getting Tempest for the 5th time and quit playing altogether.

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

At least the constant Lightweight Shoes I get have different stats. I can mix and match for an optimal character due to that alone~

 

[Frostwraith]

The thread is awfully quiet. As expected.

It's always quiet in the mornings (in Europe).

Yeah, it's always really dead around this time, which sucks for me because it's the time when I'm most active.(it's 9 PM here).

Anyway since I have nothing better to do, I'm going to download the Sonic Boom demo, and may Palutena have mercy on my soul.
(I may post impressions here later if I feel like it.)

Good morning everyone! Crap I forgot that no one is here @ this time of day... Good morning anyway!

And a good morning to you sir!

I am. Good morning.

It is quiet when it's morning in Europe. The folks at the other side of the Atlantic are asleep.

 

[RamOne]

This thread is the most alive when it's been after midnight where I live. Makes sense, as that means it's evening in North America and that's where the most members come from.

 

[aldelaro5]

Well, this is appropriate I guess:

(I need to be diverse sometime as earthbound is awesome too).

I can only be active here arouns 30 minutes per day at the current time so, must not be the onl one that goes to college at 8 am est or near ...

I can confirm. On bad internet days, it takes my mobile 5 minutes to load SmashBoards and another 3 to load a thread.
