copy/paste
Quote: Many people say Pom (or Pome) stands for “Prisoner of Mother England”. This is just an urban myth. It rings true – and so it is a successful urban myth - because many of the first European Australians truly were convicts sent out of London.
According to the Australian National Museum the word only came into use in 1912 – long after the era of convict deportations.
Pom and Pommy came about because the hot Australian sun turned most of the people arriving from the UK as red as the inside of pomegranates. So instead of calling UK migrants ‘immigrants’, they were jokingly called ‘pomigrants’.
Pomigrant was then shortened to Pom or Pommy and the nickname stuck.

I wonder what kind of establishment would have these urinals?
This roll of wallpaper is the only one left in my parent's basement. It coated the walls in our bathroom when I was growing up {damn hippies you should have seen the mirror/velvet stuff in the living room }

I am not sure about the urinals, but with this being the Vienna Opera House Bathroom, I'd definitely want to crap into that piano in order to express my artistic side.
Edit: I am allowed to say "crap", right?
