Twisties

Crunchy twisted corn snacks made in Australia by the Smiths Snackfood Company. Twisties have been around for decades and have become an Australian institution much like Vegemite.

Traditional Twisties come in two flavours - the ever popular cheese flavour, and the try-hard chicken flavour. Recently Smiths have tried to leverage the Twisties brand by releasing Twisties Cheese-O's, a blatant rip-off of Cheezels produced by rival company Arnotts, and Twisties Zig-Zags. But nothing compares to the original taste of Cheese Twisties.

Hey dude! Pass the Twisties!

State of Origin

A series of 3 Rugby League games held each year in Australia between teams from New South Wales and Queensland.

Started in 1980, the series has achieved legendary status and is now the showpiece of world rugby league. Teams are selected from the best players in the NRL, based on where the players played their junior rugby league. As a result the matches are usually filled with exciting plays, individual brilliance and memorable tries.

A similar concept was attempted by the AFL during the 1980's but failed dismally.

SOO (abbrev.) Individual matches are referred to as SOO1, SOO2 and SOO3.

Hey Davo, do you remember that Mark Coyne try in State Of Origin '94? What a ripper!

trash etiquette

The question whether you are allowed to put your trash into your neighbor's trash bin after they have wheeled it out for collection.

Normally a neighbor's trash bin already wheeled out for collection is fair game. However proper etiquette is that your trash should not smell and be secured in a strong bag, so as not to stink out their bin.

Tim: Hey Joan, we've got some extra trash this week - I notice Graham's already put out his bin - you reckon he'd mind?

Joan: As long as you use proper trash etiquette.
