Only in Australia

There is the funniest ad on Australian Tv at the moment.

Scene: Suburban garage, Husband working on his car. The Wife walks in holding looking pissed off, a spanner (wrench for the Americans) in one hand and some sort of chrome car part in the other.

W: What's this?
H: A 9/16th open ended
W: Oh, And this?
H: That's a V8 rocker cover
W: (looks at chrome bit) oohh.
H: Geez they came up beautifully didn't they?
(Wife steps over to Husband and bonks him on the head with the spanner)
H: Fair enough

Then the ad cuts to the product. Dishwashing powder.

Bloody brilliant! It is such a quintessentially Aussie ad. I actually laughed out loud the first time I saw it.
