Who is Nicky though?Nicky is gonna see this and just shake his head
John FrumWho is Nicky though?
I looked up John Frum - it's something to do with some weird Melanesian Cargo Cults or something... Interesting reading and something I had no idea about but pretty random!Yup, I be John Frum to some.
OK, as an unbiased adjudicator...
I give the win to Thumbpicker. More variety and closer to the "originals".
Admirable mention goes to Japetus, mainly for consistency... of a British twang, but also for Yogi. That one was pretty-good in my book.
Really-entermataining boys. If I had a 'puter with a mic I'd be layin' my renowned Cheech & Chong and Randy Savage impressions on ya.
Yes they (the people of some island in Melanesia - I think near Vanuatu) thought some white guy would return bearing all sorts of "white-man's goods and cargo" because they thought those type of goods were somehow mystical and god-like. It's not sure if he was a fictitious white man or if it was a mispronunciation of John Frum (from) America.I haven't researched the phenomenon but my understanding has always been that the locals attributed Jesus-like powers and personality to a dude who visited back in the day. Probably a missionary or something, you'd guess.
Chinese whispers I reckon.
