I paid $3.50, but got free onions. Interested to hear what others paid.

For a foreigner browsing 'All' : what's a 'democracy sausage'?

Edit: by the power of Internet search engines https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy_sausage

The drongo in the first pic doesn't even have onions! After the no vote winning, I'm not sure I can also handle that picture being on the The wiki page!

I refuse to believe that that's a real thing. It's just aussies being aussies and messing with the rest of the world again. It's that dropbear shit all over again

How dare you, the dropbear is a deadly predator and this sort of misinformation costs dozens of tourists their lives every year!

The democracy sausage underpins our nation, without it we’d have fallen to the commies.

Thank you, I immediately went from "the fuck?" to "ugh, 'muricans", then I saw the magazine and got actually interested.

I don't quite understand, I couldn't see a magazine.

Just to be sure, it is an Aussie thing...

Magazine is just kbin term for community.
