Get the arse sandwich mug.1. A piss-funny movie that still defines every actor who was in it almost a decade later ("hey, it's that dude/chick out of 'American Pie'"), and gave the world Steve Stifler, the man every guy wanted to be, and every girl wanted to be with.
2. American Pie, the song, is a cultural atrocity from one-hit-wonder Don McLean. The reason this song is so popular is a mystery. It's one of those indulgent, over-long, over-blown, pompous efforts that says more about the singer than the object of the song. Too complex for its own good (there are a million interpretations of the lyrics), yet contains some apparently random passages which seem to have been selected just to make a rhyme. A birthday-and-wedding staple in Australia, it contains enough references to booze and Chevys to make it popular with the younger crowd even almost 40 years later. It usually comes on near the end of the night and when it does, you're supposed to stand in a circle, put your arms around each other's shoulders and sway as though you're taking part in some sort of special experience (see also Dancing Queen, The Gambler and Khe Sanh). Personally, I only like it because it gives me 8 minutes to go outside for a dart, grab a drink and get back on for the next song. Most unfortunately, the fact that it's a tribute to dead rockers has saved it from the bucketing that it truly deserves.

Get the American Pie mug.When the vegetarian with her salad asked me if I knew how my steak died, I said "Yeah, you fucking starved it to death!".

Get the salad mug.This was great fun in high school. The rules were simple - you had to make the substitute teacher (the "sub") cry by the end of the class.

Get the sink the sub mug.If your car does not have air conditioning it is said to have "4/80 air conditioning"... 4 windows down, 80 kilometres per hour.
My Renault 12 has 4/80 air conditioning, Armstrong power windows and manual ABS (ie pump the shit out of the brake pedal)

Get the 4/80 air conditioning mug.When a large-chested girl is running up the street, her bouncing tits look like two puppies fighting under a blanket.

Get the two puppies fighting under a blanket mug.More specifically "having a Barry", and it is one of the better examples of twice-removed Australian rhyming slang.
It means you're having a bad time of things, or a shocker. The connection is Barry Crocker, an extremely naff singer from Geelong, Australia (my home town - carn the Cats!) who sang the original theme song to Neighbours and is usually seen these days singing at telethons or Carols by Candlelight or other such horseshit.
In a nutshell, shocker = Barry Crocker = Barry.
Most often used in a sporting sense, when someone asks how you performed.
PS for the Seppos out there, Neighbours is a cheap and nasty Aussie soap opera that the Brits can't get enough of. BTW, "Seppo" is another example of Aussie rhyming slang, meaning American (Yank = septic tank = seppo)

When your leggies are disappearing for 9 an over, or you've kicked 4 behinds and 2 out-on-the-full for the day, or your pitching's been racked for 3 homers in 1 innings(if you're a Seppo), mate, you are having an absolute Barry.
