This joke is hilarious if you’re an Australian. Less hilarious if you’re not. Some poms just didn’t find it funny at all 🙁
Only Jeff, Andy and I were in on the joke (we kept it under our hats). I was sat in bed when I saw the design, I nearly fell out from laughing too hard.
Fush and chups – really. That’s how kiwis pronounce Fish & Chips. It’s gnome.conf.au, in New Zealand. So it’s pulling the mickey out of the kiwis’ accent. But in a subtle, funny way.

Hum, it looks like the Babelfish logo, but I still don’t get it: can you please explain? Thank you!

Andy really is an excellent artist.

I guess it’s one of those “you had to be there” jokes. I do understand that their accent’s funny. Just looka t this: http://youtube.com/w/Stubbies?v=Ovt3BLynxwM
