Freakipedia - Aubergines

Here is the www dot freakipedia dot orgy entry on Aubergines:

An Aubergine is a large glossy edible fruit commonly used as a vegetable. Scientifically, it is almost always either of two species, Solanum melongena and Solanum esculentum. Both taste peculiar, and in either case, the texture remains spongy. An Aubergine is also known as eggplant or brinjal. Some people call it mad apple, but the mad people call it Baygon, and then promptly make a spray from it to kill cockroaches.

Aubergines are also ethnic people living in Australia. For some strange reason, they are known as Australian Aubergines. They are the ethnic people of Australia, though they were not treated ethically by the non-Aubergine people of Australia. The non-Aubergine people of Australia are called Settlers. There were disputes in their home countries, so they settled in Australia. Now they settle disputes in Australia, unless the disputes are with Australian Aubergines.

The most famous Australian Aubergine during our salad days was Evonne Goolagong. She ate the salad. The Australian Aubergines have rites. They have rights, too, but that is generally disputed by the Settlers while settling their disputes. However RITES is an Indian conglomeration; it has nothing to so with Aubergines, not even Indian Aubergines. In India the Aubergines are indigenous.

Another famous Australian Aubergine is Cathy Freeman. Like Goolagong, she is a woman Aubergine. However, not all Australian Aubergines are women. Senator Aden Ridgeway of the Australian Federal Parliament is very much a man. So is Mandawuy Yunpingu, the lead singer of the rock band Yothu Yindi. But Oodgeroo Noonuccal, the poet, actress, writer, teacher, artist and activist is a woman, in spite of her second name. Nor is she from Calcutta, which goes to show that you can never go by a name. Oodgeroo Noonuccal is also known as Kath Walker.

The cricketer Andrew Symonds looks like an Australian Aubergine, but apparently he is a Settler. When settled, he can be a very destructive. The Australian Aubergines toured England a few times in the 19th century. Later they forgot cricket and concentrated on rites and rights. Only David Wirrpunda played Australian Rules Football with elan.
