Australian version of "jumped the shark" - TV show FAIL.
Instead of referring to the waning days of American sit-com Happy Days and the episode where Fonzie jumped a shark, only to see the show sink further and further into irrelevance and low ratings, it refers to the opening episode of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's (ABC's) 2009 return of comedy show "The Chaser," where the "edgy" comedians go to the Vatican City to abuse nuns and fly a blimp with foul anti-Catholic slogans past the Pope in the Vatican.
Marked the beginning of the end for the ABC's "The Chaser."

"Jeez, I used to think they were so edgy and funny, but now they've just flown the Vatican."
"'Crikey' used to be really cool until they took on the chk-chk-boom girl... but they really flew the Vatican on that one."
"Yeah, right... from Mo-Toons to toilet-bowl-Jesus. They've flown the Vatican."

Get the flooding the basement mug.Flooding the Fight is a phrase regarding the commonly occurring floods in the Midwest along the Red River (especially among Fargo, North Dakota). This terminology was coined with the phrase "Fight the Flood." However, since it is a heavily alcoholic area in the Midwest, "Flooding the Fight" was derived from the amount of alcohol consumed during the flood time frame in order to drown the sorrows of the lost communities. Also, the large amount of social drinking that comes along with schools being let out for break because of the floods.
