I'll swear, the preceeding exchange leaves me more firmly convinced
that "Aus" simply is a misspelling of "Ass". Now, if the actual
productive contributors here could resist quoting the argumentative,
self-important, all-knowing twits....

And I'm wondering if that 'ass' is supposed to mean 'arse' since
knowing the difference between a derriere and a donkey is beyond so
many people.
In the US the term arse is virtually unknown. The term ass covers a lot
of territory including the two you mentioned, both with and without a
prefix. Steve

In the US, the terme "arse" is well known. We understand it to be "ass"
with a British drawl. This is not meant to imply that our understanding
is in anyway correct, but the word is known.

But "arse" does demarcate that space encircled by the sphincter from the
donkey.

Precisely. :-))

wow, i guess you really told me, i just thought i'd try and answer seen as nobody else was anywhere to be seen as was the case for my post about tomato problems.
since joining this site the other day i've noticed people only want to say something helpful when they want to impose some sort of intellectual superiority upon some other party.
anyway, i didn't say he/she should eat them.
i'll leave you obnoxious and cantankerous old drabs to stroke your swollen egos as long as you're happy you've got 1 up on somebody.
this'll probably get removed or something, i don't care.
Good day, unhelpful berks.
