Aussies have a charming turn of phrase. The recent Australian budget was recently branded "as popular as a Polly Waffle in a public pool".
A Polly Waffle was a marshmallow chocolate bar on sale in Australia until 2009 - but because it was brown and cylindrical the term also came to refer, with lavatorial humour, to something else. A Polly Waffle in a pool is not popular at all.
