Looks like I’m heading to Canberra. Can’t wait to shake things up down there. But first things first: I’ve written a victory speech. But you don’t want to read it now, do you? Do you? Really? No. Yes! Okay. Dear Voters. [applause] Thank you. [applause] You have voted me in! [applause] We dug deep, found some rocks, sold them and, yay, I won! [applause] People thought I was only good for dinosaurs, boats and mining, now I am good at something else. [applause] So let’s make this country great again! [applause] I’m thinking giant robot koalas and a replica of Australia II but with propellers and a deck-side mini-golf course. [applause] In your face, Kevin! [applause] In your face, Tony! [applause] Now, how do you drive this thing? [applause] If only [sigh]. Clive iNsTeP The next time you’re at a family gathering that’s a bit dull, liven things up by asking everyone to point to their instep. While people familiar with the word will point to their foot, it is where on the foot a person points to that can provide you with an afternoon of family bickering. People over about 50 will generally point to the top of their foot between the toe and the ankle, while younger people will more commonly identify the instep as running along the foot’s underside. Quite why this shift in understanding is occurring is not clear; perhaps it’s the rise of podiatry orthotics. It’s a fascinating example of a meaning shift happening right under our feet. by liNgo! by Lauren Gawne (superlinguo.com) by Patrick Witton THe Big issue 13 – 26 sep 2013 45
