My eldest got home from the gym and says “Tomorrow I’m going to feel like a cactus”. 🌵

Proud Aussie / American mum me says “oh yeah, you’re so close but that’s not quite to how you’re supposed to say it!”

He says “what do you mean?”

Sometimes I just have to google Aussie slang to prove I’m not making stuff up.

@Kungfupussy I pride myself on knowing weird slang from lots of places, but that's a new one on me 🤣

@BillyBones explaining how to say it was interesting

Do I say I feel cactus? No
Do I say I feel like a cactus? No
So I say I am cactus?

Yes…..

@Kungfupussy 🤣
"Conjugate the verb 'to go'. "
"Uh... ere, eo, is, it, imus"

Oh and you get extra points for the use of Sir Didymus ❤️

@BillyBones I was raised on The Life of Brian so nicely done right back atcha!
