The other day someone came into the shop and made a vauge reference to Mark Jackson (The loud Engergizer Battery guy),that I think no one got but me, is he still pushing batteries? Also, do people call the US "The Land Up Over"?

Firstly, you should feel special and priveledged you got thid joke, whilst noone else did. Well done :D It is second only to knowing who won the 1952 Male Oscar, in order to win a lame prize at the local trivia night. No, he's no longer pushing batteries. I think he went flat..... No we dont call the US "The Land Up over". In fact, we dont call any country the land up over. We usually call the states the You-Ess (not sure of the spelling).

Who is this Chopper Read guy, and why is he telling me to " 'Arden the fuck up!"?

A convicted murderer (he only killed 'bad' men) who has become a minor celebrity. We're a country that started as a prison, so we have a very strong anti-authoritian streak. Still, the guy's nothing more than a pyscho thug, but I wouldnt want to say it to his face. He's telling you to harden up, because you're a soft nancy boy most likely! As the saying goes at my brothers work (civil engineer) "eat some concrete and harden the f*** up!"
