    I couldn't stop laughing about the bit with the guy with the artificial ear sticking his head out of the car window and the Northern Engish guy saying "Your mum and dad cut your ear off as a punishment?"

      Whats even funnier I think (not sure if this is the video) when he says rather than calling people who are disabled that, calling them mutants instead XD, creased me several times over was thinking about this a while after him saying that lol, as I am technically that pmsl.
      I may not look like I have a disability but do have Personal Independence Payment at the extended rate too which replaced Disability Living Allowance, the condition I have which causes me right now a whole load of problems lol, is due to a mutation of the APC gene so tadaaaahhhhh!!!
      I have to say when he said people with disabilities have the sickest sense of humour I do have that, I love the proper belly laughing when my belly starts aching, I'd love to have a convo with him about that I bet he'd laugh his ass off! XD!!!

    They are in Australia.
    We don't have ketchup at all (except chain restaurants originally from the US, they use the American name for it) only tomato sauce.
    You might have ketchup and something else you call tomato sauce over there, we only have tomato sauce.

      Given that he said “bottle”, I think that’s probably what he meant. In the US, “tomato sauce” typically refers to either a pasta topping or pizza sauce, and the condiment is ketchup.

"Friends" were going to take him over the border and let him work it out with immigration on his own. Sometimes dense is imported.

I have had plenty of confused discussions with Aussie friends in Adelaide and while living in Europe, which are even funnier when there's someone English present and we all have different words for the same thing. Some I words I've had to have defined: dag, chunder, lino, bikie, Pom, sickie, milk bar, esky, bikkie, pressie, jumper, fairy floss.
