Land Shark

An Outback Steakhouse commercial just came on the radio. Rob and I got to laughing about eating Koalas. And why should that be such a repulsive thought? Oh suuuure, they look all soft and cuddly. But shave off all that hair, and you've got yourselve a blackeyed, cranky, dagger-clawed, tree-devil. You've seen the talons on those suckers, right? We couldn't help turning Aussie* for a couple minutes:

Why, ets no worse thun aytin shahk!
Ohr a nahstey ol croc!
Yeeah, theh'r nuthun but buggahd tree crocs!
Rahyt! Jast tayk a big bayt outta theyah backsayd 'for thay get theh'r claws in ya.

*Rob's an Aussie, and I got his nod of approval, thankyouverymuch.
