Arj Barker Melbourne Comedy Festival 2010

[@xwinglover]

he just gets Australia....... thats why we love him

[@LJY08]

I never thought about it like that, I think Arj has nailed it "the onus is on the listener"..rather than the speaker to be clear about what they're saying.

[@sharielane]

LJY08 To be fair "squidgery-didge" does sounds like it could be related to the word "squiz" (which means have a look), but to a degree I think you are right. I think being able to decipher context (what word/meaning should be there) matters more than the actual words used.

[@TaliesinMyrddin]

My exact logic. I love this entire situation.

[@Oddricm]

@@sharielane Also Ridgy-didge.

[@jimmiow]

He describes Australians better than anyone.

[@ranger9610]

"hey sir can i help you with anything? NO THANKS.... IM JUST HAVIN A LITTLE SQUIDGERIDDGE..." XDXDXDXD LOL

[@jaydanfort]

the thing is... ITS SO TRUE! i got a couple of his australia tour DVDs when he talks about how us aussies act and talk and he is sooo right! we are hilarious

[@shcnoozlebop]

he must spend a lot of time in australia to understand our attitude so well

[@Chuck97332]

[@SNP185]

[@MeatyCatBall]

ah yeh... fuck

[@philliphamilton2]

oh yeah, fuck!

[@melbal2]

Because they're ears aren't familiar enough with the accents to differentiate. Just like many Aussies might not be able to tell the difference between some American accents and Canadian accents (me inlcuding). What I don't get is when it bothers people.

[@jackzop]

oh yeah... fuck

[@ShutupAndLaugh]

BALLS full show here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqvGXqWAepaVqNk

[@vcat10]

@samdiego14 You can be Australian and definitely not be bogan.

[@couponsteve]

5 people do not know what squidgery didge means

[@Neojhun]

awhhh yea, I don't even bother with the fark.

[@ScorpiousDelectus]

The problem with that last joke is that the audience knows what the punchline is going to be as soon as he finishes his set-up. The concept is funny, but as an audience, we're done being amused by the time he finishes the joke...

[@jimmiow]

...i think he might be a lizard.

[@Runescape8747]

why do americans think we're british?..i just don't get it

[@facehugger89]

to funny wtf this should be a crime
