Naff used to be used as a verb, as well. I remember Princess Anne or someone shocking the press by telling some paparazzi to naff off.
All Ogle, No Cash -- It's Not Just Annoying, It's Un-American
Discussion of episodes currently airing in Un-American locations (anything that's aired in Australia is fair game), as well as anything else the Un-Americans feel like talking about or we feel like asking them. Please use the show discussion threads for any current-season discussion.

(edit - and Matt Stone is one of the creators (along with Trey Parker) of South Park. Whew, glad I figured that out.)
D'oh! I knew that. Thanks Cindy.
Huh? You're welcome. (but you meant to thank someone else, unless I'm in a fugue - which is possible - I must need carbs. DEBORAH!!!)

Crap. For some reason I thought it was you, but no. I'll go back and figure out who it was that corrected me on my L&Oness.
Nope; only thing I had to say about L&O was that I hadn't ever really been a fan. Too ripped from the headlinesish for me, although the early ones, definitely more to my taste.
Yes, Cindy? Here, have a plate of m'jedrah, seasoned with spring onions, shallots, ras el hanout - would you like some lamb in there, for protein?
Hot bread?
It was Elena. Nevermind.
I don't even know what half of that is, but yes please, and yes on the lamb, too. I live with a Philistine and 3 small children, so I never get lamb now.
I spice it up with ras el hanout (North African mixture of 23 spices or thereabouts) and will serve with moustamosir (garlic and shallot yogurt-based dip) and add lamb sauteed in honey with pine nuts, if the fancy takes.
Adding golden currants in nice too.
"Happy" ANZAC Day sounds wrong, but I thought it should be acknowledged.
So did google! [link]
(I always tell my brother "Safe ANZAC Day", so, yeah, that too :)
Julie, I'd forgot, I'm ashamed to admit. Gallipoli, the Oz/NZ troops memorial day, yes?
Yes, initially a commemoration day for the Australian (and New Zealand Army Corps) who landed at Anzac Cove, Turkey on April 25th, 1915, it's now our version of Memorial Day.
This year's is extra poignant as it's the first Anzac Day without any living survivor of the Gallipoli campaign. Our last true digger died last year.
