mate

friend. Though its origins are widely disputed, it is a British word, brought over to Australia by the convicts, then some Kiwi tourist stole it.

England: "This is John, he's my mate."
Australia: "G'day mate!"
Kiwiland: "YOUR MY MATE?!!!!!!!!111!1!1!111!!"

Wintendo

A Windows-based system that is used only for gaming, whose user prefers a REAL Unix-based operating system (often some distribution of Linux or, more often, Mac OS X) for their serious work.

'Dude, that system's not even good enough to be a Wintendo. Throw it away and buy a new one.'

Aztec

The people who pwned Mexico before white trash came along. Best known as creators of the Aztec pyramid, chocolate, and the pinata. Yes, they invented chocolate. Spain found it and stole it.

Sadly, all that remains is a few of their towns, and pyramids. The Aztec people are no more.

Gorillaz

An animated band from the UK. Its fictional members are 2-D (singer), Murdoc (bassist), Russell (drummer), and Noodle (guitarist). The real people? Damon Albarn (who became famous with Blur's Song 2) and Jamie Hewlett (does the animation, known for Tank Girl. Its genre? That's arguable. Most songs feature a short, repeated chorus with a large rap section (examples: Feel Good Inc. and Clint Eastwood. However, some of their songs are completely away from this genre, featuring more rock stylings (examples: White Light and Kids With Guns. They call themselves "Zombie Hip Hop".
They were "pop", thus causing a number of noobs to download only 3 songs of theirs from the Internet. Only the true fans bought the new album, Demon Days, which features darker songs, such as Last Living Souls and All Alone.
Their new advertising campaign is called "Reject False Icons". The idea? Reject pop singers as false icons, and respect true icons, such as themselves.
Actually have NOTHING to do with the animal gorilla. Some say they are drawn to look slightly monkey, some say they are monkeys. Neither are true.

The animation is the key part. I can't describe it in words.... just see the animation!

Gorillaz: Windmill, windmill for the land, turn forever hand in hand

puff

A word used in Domino's Pizza advertising in Australia for their Puffection crusts, meaning "wicked, cool, the ultimate". The word is rarely used in such a context, even in Australia, and if someone does use it in such a context, they are considered either fag or bogan.

As used in ads:
"Oh man, this pizza's puff!"
"Yeah, so puff!"

As used in real life:
"Oh man, this pizza's puff!"
"Get outta here, you faggotish bogan."
