We just replaced the toilet in the master bathroom. It only uses 1.28

I hadn't heard that one before. Sounds like it is due to a
rhyming between yanks / septic tanks and at least some number of
Australians thinking Americans are full of shit.

unrelated to the google fiber thing, but on the same topic
as what other nations nickname things. I found out recently
Australians like to refer to americans as seppos, in
reference to septic tanks, which I assume is a way of saying
they are in awe of our waste management abilities

There's a British newspaper/website that always refers
to Google as the Chocolate Factory. Why? Is this a
Willy Wonka reference? Again, why? Not sure if this is
meant as positive or negative. British sense of humor
is sometimes difficult to understand.

In the beginning, cities were tripping over themselves
to be next because fiber! and Google! Once that stopped
happening then things got real.
