The Arvo Controversy

[Colt45]

Not too long ago, a member questioned the meaning of the Aussie term "arvo". Our

humble host suggested that it is Aussie slang for afternoon.

I had heard from a member who shall remain unnamed (young master Simon), that

in fact, it is slang for wild orgy - bathhouse style.

Now knowing that at times, Rob can be quite the prankster, I figured he was having

us on, and figured some trusting, unsuspecting member, on their first trip to Brisbane,

would go around saying, "have a great arvo" or "yesterday arvo was really hot" -

things of that nature. Meanwhile, knowing what they're really saying, Rob is up on his

rocker, laughing so hard as to fall off his wallet.

Smithy's recent thinly veiled post about easing into the "arvo" just about sealed it for

me, but the real clincher was the pictures found at arvo.com.au - I can't bring myself

to post them.......

1. can't get that site to load?

2. it really is just aussie short slang for afternoon.

3. minismithy is learning quickly. don't forget that this is the student of rob who tried to convince me to smoke the 1944 cigar given to rob. can you imagine the wrath i would have suffered.

4. to be fair, rob would set you up as quickly as blink. never forget that this was the bloke who set up a longstanding mate (hence you know it wasn't me) on a trip to cuba - the poor bloke just wanted to say a special thanks to the locals in their language. rob taught him how to say 'i am a sodomist'.

5. if rob ever falls off his wallet, the ripples will be felt around the world. krakatoa will seem like a sniffle.

6. none of this in any way is to suggest that rob and minismithy don't spend their arvos at the bathhouse.

Man... I am no witness of the Czar Brissi lair but it sounds like Caligula would have been a proud patron of the set up with the bathhouse...

the locals didn't think so. would not even let the poor bugger in a cab. on the other hand, the rest of us didn't stop laughing all week.
