thank you oscar for having fun with us! i’ve never microwaved my weetabix or weet-bix before and I don’t plan on doing so 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Me neither wouldn't Weetabix to mush if you microwave them 😂
Back when I used to live in a cooler climate here in Aus, I would always microwave the milk first before I added the weetbix, during the winters
To have weetabix warm, just add a little warm water to warm and soften them, before you add the milk ❤️
What‽‽‽ I LOVE warm weetabix, its like a cross between porridge and weetabix and it's SOOOO good (I'm British)
Do it every morning beautiful cheers ✌
I'm violently opposed to watching any buzzfeed content, but Oscar is one of the two exceptions I'm willing to make
Is the other lando?
@@smallgodguido well guessed
@@jemhams I am violently opposed to watching anything that has Oscar in it, but when on Buzzfeed I'm willing to make...
@@glbrtgilliebooo go home
@@racecarrikbooo, immature Oscar fanboy
oscar content with buzzfeed was never in my bingo card
well when you have ellen and I who are fans, we made the magic happen 😌🥳
Now it is
I refuse to believe Oscar has never played goon of fortune
He would never admit it… let’s be real. He can’t now.
He left for England at 14 and has been racing nearly nonstop since. I'd actually believe it.
And the old cask wine was invented in oz
On a Hills hoist. Of course he has😅
Fruity Lexia makes you sexier
I interrupt Drive to Survive streaming to watch this.
2:19 Oscar's eyes. Hahaha!
hahahaha a great time code! 😂
He should tease Lando and call him a Pom😅 This was so lovely, thanks guys ❤
says the man with the pommiest name there is. Duke
FINALLY SOME OSCAR CONTENT FOR HIM TO BECOME A STARRRR!!!
YESSS LETS GOOOOOOO!!!
MY SILLY GUY IS BACK !! i missed the odd oscar interviews that pop up on my feed
oscar is such a gem! he is so funny and such a nice guy 😊 we had a lovely time filming with him 😁
amazing video I absolutely LOVE seeing Oscar doing any fun activities like these, he's such a funny fellow
he is a funny fellow indeed! we had the best time filming with him 🎉
The best!
2:54 I’m from Massachusetts we also us the word uey but we would say bang a uey instead of chuck a uey
also from US and i've always said flip a uey
I'm British, And My Mum's Said 'Chuck A Uey' And Has Said It Fairly Often
Honestly bang a uey is pretty good.
I said hack a loogie, but I think that’s something different
@@midgetwars1 Bang A Uey Is Like, Top Tier Aussie Awesomeness, Except For Donk, That's Good
1:54 the most expressive I’ve seen Oscar
I’m very unimpressed by Oscar that he didn’t expand on the goon bag with the name of the drinking game where you put a bag of goon on a Hills hoist (an Aussie spinnable clothes line) and spin it around until it stops and the person it stops by has to drink directly from the goon. The game is obviously called….
Goon of Fortune.
According to a Wikipedia, Weetabix is the UK version of the original Australian Weetbix, so that means Weetbix is the original and therefore correct 😊
okay best OP vid out there
I agree with Oscar, here in South Africa they are also called Weet-bix😅
Right! When I saw "WeetaBix" I was so confused because we call it Weet-bix (I'm also from South Africa)😂 and I genuinely thought the Brits call it that as well🙈
@@amethyst_moony absolutely, and Oscar is right!!😉
Bothe are right because in UK the brand is Weetabix and Aus it's Weetbix......simples!@@dukedasilva8810
Oscar Is Awesome! Definitely One Of My Favourite People!
The rubber thong (aka flip flop) was invented by Dunlop and patented in Australia in the mid 1960's.
I did not know that
Thong/flip flops are jandals here in New Zealand. Thongs are those undies Bottas has on.... 😆
It's Weetbix here in NZ too, seeing as Sanitarium are an Aussie company.
@@zabaleta66 This style of footwear has been worn by people of many cultures throughout the world, originating as early as the ancient Egyptians in 1500 BC. In the United States the modern flip-flop may have had its design taken from the traditional Japanese zōri, after World War II as soldiers brought them back from Japan.
Them Speedos are wrong on all
Levels 😂
POLITE CAT IS BACKKKK
My Australian pal told me to get a pair of thongs,I was horrified being a bloke until he explained it
I relate to all of these terms, but I am from Melbourne (formally a Pom!).
I have to say, the U-Turn/Uey one intrigues me! In New England, or specifically my state within New England, we say Uey for the most part. But we say "bang a uey" rather than "chuck a uey"
DONK comes from Donkey, originating early on from the development of internal combustion engines. Donkeys did a lot of the "grunt" work in farming and industry, early engines, not necessarily in cars, were nick named donkeys for that reason and shortened to Donk. Might even be of US origin rather that Brit or Aussie.
The goon in a box is an Australian invention btw.👍🏼😎🇦🇺
Funnily enough we also say u-ey in Canada
ok, nobody asked but since new zealand english is kinda a mix of australian english and british english here’s what we use here:
flip-flops/thongs: jandals
speedo/budgies: speedo (bc the brand)
fairy bread is fairy bread yes we have it here it's a popular kids' party food here too
boxed wine/goon bag: uhh i have never seen one of those before so i'm not sure what we call it
u-turn/uey: i mean that is a u-turn but we call it a uey pretty much all the time it's just short for u-turn lol
brit/pom: def a brit lol
weetabix/weet-bix: weet-bix always
car engine/donk: donk is just aussie slang we dont use it lmao it's just a car engine
omg this is so fascinating! thank you for sharing these too 😁
Australia invented cask wine so we get to call it what we like. Goon Bag it is. 😆👍
weetbix can only be eaten 2 ways. 3 bars in cold milk with a bunch of fruit, usually berries or bananas. Or a whole bowls worth, drowned in milk with sugar, maybe some honey, and warmed like oats
In Calif we call them Beachwalkers, Zorries, Thongs, and Flip-Flops (depending on the decade you were born 😂).
In the 1960’s in America we called the flip flops , thongs. “Zoories”
Zori are japanese thong sandals
Oscar content🎉🎉🎉🎉
he is the best! such a kind soul 😊
Here in South Africa we also call the Brits poms or pommies. It's just a term we use, not meant to be derogatory in any way.
im mid 40's and still eat Fairy Bread, Fairy Bread is an adult meal, we use the excuse of kids parties to eat it
5:21 oscar’s so real for that😆
I’m from Phoenix and don’t know why but we call U-Turns, flipping a b*tch
Oscar 😮😍
I love the Australian words as a Brit they make no sense Lol
fr ellen and I kept being baffled 😂
@@itshellosepithe G.
Bag one was the strangest lol
Goon actually comes from 2litre bottled cheap wine. The bottles were called Flagons
A slighty different photo 😂😂
The so-called 'goon bag' is infact called a coolibah (actual brand name). Started back in the 70s.
As a Canadian pop a uey is a VERY common thing to say here for make a uturn
Donk, a word that I associate with (old) lifted amreican cars on oversized wheels with elastic bands as tyres.
I am Australian and I can't recall hearing the term 'donk' for an engine. However, I had a think and perhaps it's short for 'donkey', similar to horse or horsepower to describe the power of a car. Just a funny word to describe horse power for a low powered car perhaps or making fun of someone's engine.
You proposed a question in the video thumbnail, It's a thong. Because a thong originally is a thin piece of string or leather used to hold something in place. So the name "Thong" for the rubber sandal image comes from the bifurcated rubber strap that holds the rubber sole on your foot.
OSCAHHHHHHH
Oscars gooning 😳
Weetbix and weetabix are slightly different. The pommy one is sweeter, the Aussie one is pure wheat and not sweet. We add sugar or fruit to sweeten it. Microwave? Definitely. Add milk, then zap. Great for winter
ok USA. East Coast. Flip FLops, Speedo.. dont have that bread, BANG a uey,
LOVE OSCAR OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!! Buzzfeed is making Formula1 content now?!?!?!?!?
Straight off the bat wrong. Microwaved weet bix in winter with honey and banana or even just some sugar on top is awesome. Been eating that since I was a kid and I’m as Aussie as they come.
Hard agree!
Weet-Bix is Australian as well.
Hilarious as Speedo is an Australian company and it’s like calling tissues Kleenex or pens Biros when the brand name can be replaced for the item name.
Can be embarrassing though - many years ago on arriving in England, my Aussie wife went to the stationary shop and asked for some Durex (aka sticky clear tape brand name in Australia) - she was told she should try the chemist shop.
Plonk in my day for cheap white wine 🍷 and Grog for beer 🍺
I’m South African, and I would call a Brit a Pom.
Good Bag, well a Flagon is shortened to a Goon and that bag holds about the same as a Flagon/Goon, so a Goon bag. Obvious to any Aussie, well done Oscar!!
An empty goon bag is a readymade pillow for sleeping on the beach after you have consumed said contents!
I misread the title on the video I thought it said Oscar Pistorius
In Liverpool we definitely say Uey
Who’s the Sheila?
🤣 haven't heard Sheila for a while some people here in oz 🇦🇺 get offended when you say it probably because they are just whinging sooks 😆
Bloody hell get a mullet up ya
am i seeing this right buzzfeed n f1 collide
correct 😌 we have some inhouse fans so we had to make this happen!
As a South African, If anyone cares... we would say:
1) Flip-Flops or Slops or Slip-Slops
2) Speedos but also refer to them as budgies smugglers for fun
3) Never had before. I'd say we consider "Fairycake" to be like Chiffon cake?
4) Boxed Wine used to ONLY be cheap wine or PapSak. Papsak is loosely translated into a flat bag, I guess. In the past 5 years or so, many middle-range quality wines. Typically screwcaps or quaffable wines which you don't care about the vintage therefore no need for a cork, have begun selling "Wine in Boxes" at a slightly lower cost as they are more eco-friendly and use recyclable inners and outers which require less water to recycle than glass does. So good for the environment, lasts longer, marginally cheaper but still of the same standard as their bottled wines.
5) U-Turn, except as far as I can recall ours rarely have the "allowed to" and typically have a line across symbolising NO U-Turns, which to a South African means "TURN Really Fast!". Any other countries have a saying for Robots (Traffic Lights) "Green means GO, Yellow (Amber) means Go Faster and Red means either stop if peak traffic...or at night hover or go slowly.".
We do occasionally say "Make a quick make a U'ey or just turn around here, at a prohibited risky interaction. So it's interesting that Eng and Aus terms are often both used here.
6) Poms or many Afrikaans people call them Souties, especially if they live in South Africa. As they have one foot in England and one foot in South Africa with their um male third appendage being in the (sout/salt) salty sea.
7) Just an engine if you're standing near the car or want the petrol attendant to check the engine's oil and water.
I just realised I missed Weet-Bix. Probably because it's disgusting and my mind purposefully blanked it out. I think it's a brand-name thing.
Fairy bread is a child's party snack.
Ok, they're NOT called "flip flops" or "thongs", as every Kiwi knows their true and proper name is "jandals".
Pom comes from "Prisoner Of Mother England", pom was originally POME. We use the term too.
Weet-Bix does not have an "A" in it in Australia and NZ.
Donk is an old term for a car engine. I think it was shortened from donkey, because the engine works like a mule. Just guessing.
So Pom is so incorrect...Aussies would be Poms as the prisoners went to Aus!
@@ekspatriat Originally yes. But it became any Brit who travelled to Australia. Then any Brit. And because of our close relationship with Australia we called all Brits that too.
Why would you call it something as boring as white bread with sprinkles 😂😂
Chanclas🇲🇽
Oscar on the goon sacks brus yewwww 🔥🔥🤣
Oscar, this is so random 😭😭
Take this out of before someone gets offended. Ask Oscar to find out what it really means by “goon”.
This shows the difference from the two countries. Australia is like a super cool country with very real people.
I will change everyone’s mind about microwave weetbix.
Step 1: toast with butter and vegemite
Step 2: add a slice of cheese to said toast
Step 3: pour milk over weetbix and microwave
Step 4: mix weetbix into a paste
Step 5: apply weetbix paste to toast
Step 6: fold toast in half to create a vegemite weetbix and cheese toast taco
This was my daily breakfast nearly my entire child hood
U Turn or pull a uey in the US
You can take the boy out of Australia but you can't take Australia out of the boy.
I am pretty sure that Daniel Riccardo has more stories to tell about goon bags. 😂
Thongs are properly called Jandals
we should all compromise on the thongs/flip flops thing by using the word new zealanders use: jandals
I’ve NEVER heard donk for a car engine.
The engine isn't called a donk the engine has donk. You would say "the car has plenty of donk". That means it has plenty of power.
She doesn’t speak for all of England by saying “don’t put weetabix in the microwave “
Sprinkles?! What the fuck are sprinkles?! You mean hundreds and thousands!
Same thing
Wait is it pom or pohm (prisoner of her majesty)
No . . . pome stands for Prisoner of Mother England. From the Convict era.
@@aussiebattler3527 ahh well my life's been a lie
Aussies invented the goon bag
14 celcius cold days in winter in Melbourne l microwave my milk for weetbix they turn out like porridge 🥣
Well neither country can properly pronounce words with an R, so Barbie might as well be spelled Baahbie 😄
To be accurate, Oscar is Australian, so his native tongue would be Australian, not English. Australian English is recognised as a distinct language.
Talking out your ass mate.
@@ekspatriat en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_English Perhaps I should have said varient rather than distinct, however Australian English is a thing. There used to be an option for setting it as the default language in Windows.
How does that work? Windows only has/had regional English setttings for keyboards@@AndrewMercieca
It's spelled POME. It means Prisoner of Mother England. ✌️
A donk? Never heard that used once 😂
Number 2- Cossies, the English are called Pommies.
It's actually Canadians who speak proper English! And why would anyone eat Weetabix or Weet-bix in the first place?😇
I think the goon bag comes from the old flagons?
So who on the grid has parrot smuggler’s
crack up. aussie pronunciation>>>
Goon bag was a flagon of wine..same thing lol..i came to aus in 72 at 8 yrs
Cask in NZ.
Yes, we used to call a flagon of wine a flagoon and then in the Aussie tradition we shortened it to ‘goon’. And as a former Kiwi, the word Jandal is short for ‘Japanese sandals’. Budgie Smugglers are also called ‘sluggos’ (obviously show off your slug so now that I think about it I’m going back to ‘budgies’)
All get.have a cone m8 lol.i am lol
It's a double plugged come on now.
Honestly, am I the only one who puts their Weet-Bix in the microwave?
The British person here keeps saying the American words. Speedos is American, Budgie Smugglers is Australian and English. And British people don’t say sprinkles we say hundreds and thousands. And we say do a Uey.
i’ve called them sprinkles my whole life..never heard anyone say “hundreds and thousands”
You are probably younger than me! I feel like the Americanisms are creeping in as the norm. Definitely hundreds and thousands in the 80s! 😂
Speedos is American? Is that why the brand logo is a boomerang? Confidently wrong - how very American of you
No, calling them Speedos is an Americanism, the company isn’t American.
"Donk" is not a thing
another name for a goon sack/bag is a "gins handbag" but don't say it because its derrogatory, just stick with goon sack
What horrible psychopath even considers microwaving weetabix
Eww I cannot believe i watched buzzfeed by mistake 😭 rip my recommendations
Neither..... Brits and Aussies have butchered the English language.
