ANONYMOUS JONES'
AUSTRALIAN EMIGRATION NEWSLETTER #26
POP QUIZ #1
Now that you all have seen a quarter-hundred of these essays,
we here at the Anonymous Jones' Headquarters feel that it is
time for a brief pop quiz to see if you have assimilated the
essence of Aussieism. We warn that the following questions
may not derive from the text of back issues, (We cheated
and included topics from future newsletters!) and that there
is no reward other than your own sure knowledge that you are
becoming Aussieized:
>(1) The Aussie name for a female aborigine is:
> (a) nark, (b) gin, (c) fluff, (d) chook, (e) airy-jane
>(2) Select the term that does not match the others:
> (a) brumby, (b) bitser, (c) cleanskin, (d) prang, (e) roo
>(3) A pimple squeezer is: (a) a poofter, (b) a pop singer,
> (c) a nipper, (d) an apprentice cowboy, (e) a born loser
>(4) Select the term that means the same as "dunny":
> (a) loo, (b) plonk, (c) mozzie, (d) ratbag, (e) Van Dyke
>(5) If you were going swimming in Australia, which of the
> following might you be wearing: (a) daks, (b) swag,
> (c) togs, (d) strides, (e) hottie, (f) fannywhackers
If you scored 80% or better on this quiz, you should run,
not walk to your nearest Qantas Airways ticket agent and
book passage on the next flight! You are a NATURAL Aussie!
