Talk like a Mate Days
As you might have heard, the world has been turned upside down and Mark is moving back to Australia (to raise his clone armies uncontaminated by valley lifestyle).
What can we do? Well, we can help Mark prepare for this change and to soften the cultural change, I hereby declare the next days to be Talk like a Mate
days. Since I am no native speaker, I have to draw on external resources, but please jump in and add whatever you can to help. I might also give us a crucial advantage in still being able to understand Mark in a couple of months from now once he is true blue
again!
What I have dug up so far:
