Ken Gargett Posted May 10, 2015 Posted May 10, 2015 for those not familiar, an aussie rugby winger who has a rather unique turn of phrase. comes up with bizarre quotes. name is nick cummins but he is nicknamed the honey badger. you can find all sorts of very funny highlights on u-tube no doubt. he is a bit different from the usual sanitised post game speech. last night, he described how he played the game - "...you gotta be like a midget in a urinal. you gotta be on your toes". another cracker when he scored three tries - "i crossed the line more times than osama bin laden". and when called on to defend... "I was busier than a one armed bricklayer in Baghdad". when injured in a tackle... "i was whacked in the niagra falls". sometimes he is not completely PC. described how he felt in a close game... "i was sweating like a gypsy with a mortgage. there was only a bees wanger in it". spent a season in japan. was asked what he learnt. "i learnt how to bow". on trying to order food in japan... “It’s a tough gig trying to order a chicken salad or whatever and you’re in there flapping your wings around trying to explain what you want.I am not going to go into how you try and explain you want some eggs,” on a japanese journo... "he was as confused as a goldfish with dementia". on fans dressing up as him... "I first of all thought 'what the hell is wrong with that bastard' then I realised, Jesus, they were being me". 1
Ubergosupro69 Posted May 10, 2015 Posted May 10, 2015 Sounds like a character, I'm going to have to find some videos!
LordAnubis Posted May 10, 2015 Posted May 10, 2015 another one I like "I just went head over biscuit"... talking about falling over in the field or something. and talking about some guy who gave a speech about him .. I think in Japanese... "I have no idea what he said, but I'm sure he meant well"
JohnS Posted May 10, 2015 Posted May 10, 2015 He's a good laugh, the Honey Badger! Thanks for posting Ken. I thought I'd add the following video titled 'chewin' the fat 101 with Mr. Honey Badger'. I think we'll agree that the aussie slang in the video is something else! 1

I think we'll agree that the aussie slang in the video is something else! Ok. For you non-Aussies, what does the last bit mean? "Get on the dog and bone, book a left jab to the billabong, bend the elbow with a few pig ears and chew a bit of the fat with a couple of china plates"
Colt45 Posted May 10, 2015 Posted May 10, 2015 Ok. For you non-Aussies, what does the last bit mean? "Get on the dog and bone, book a left jab to the billabong, bend the elbow with a few pig ears and chew a bit of the fat with a couple of china plates" My guess is: Get on the phone, call a cab to take you to the bar, have a few beers while talking with a couple of mates.
bradbrennan Posted May 10, 2015 Posted May 10, 2015 Good stuff! Too many uptight folks in the U.S. to get by with that midget joke here I'm guessing
