That's so off-topic it made my head spin mate.

The thing visitors and new Australians don't understand about Vegemite is that it must be spread thinly, preferably on toast rather than bread, but either way, thinly is the key.

Would none at all be better than thinly spread?

Many would say that Stoivo, but I'll bet that a decent percentage of them wouldn't have had it spread sufficiently-thinly, hence my timely-and-pertinent warning.

I'm not joking that the other day, when trying to imagine odd food combinations that in-theory would taste terrible, I came up with this one Phil. Great minds mate, great minds.

Then I remembered, thanks to you guys, that I'm a monkey, so it'd probably be awesome. :banghead:

Is this the biopic on Monkey Man that people have been talking about?

I never thought you were a fighter, MM! And to think that you took down James Bond, according to this reviewer!

From the Guardian review

“There are a couple of thuddingly off-key music choices that jolt us out of the story“.

Can we assume you had nothing to do with the music?
