We all tend to go a little berko now and then.

EDIT: Thanks a lot, Joe! You’ve ruined it for future commentators! I already figured what “berko” meant before you came on.

isn’t that what the ‘toon said…..

guess the rest of us can’t read.

Thanks Joe. Without your expert interpretation, I probably would have spent the whole morning trying to figure this one out.

Now, guys, don’t go berko on Joe.

So we get a new word every Thursday? Cool, I like the way aussie slang is put together.

With the word put into context, i.e., spoken in conversation in the USA, anyone with a measurable I.Q. could figure it out. I have an acquaintance from New Zealand, and have absolutely no problem understanding his “Kiwi Slang”

I also understood it because of the context without needing the extra help.
