'Chocolate Thunder from Down Under.'
(gulps in horror)
Do people actually order this?
It sounds like... umm, like it belongs in the toilet.
Surely the Yanks would have the same reaction...

Chocolate brownie topped with ice cream and fudge syrup.

Honestly, the Australian meaning of the name had never crossed my mind. Now I'll think of that every time I look at an Outback menu...

Every Aussie who comes across this atrocity gasps in horror at the oh so very 'Australian' (read in a very broad yank accent) aspects of their menu.
I could rant on and on about this.
Chocolate thunder from down under (*shakes head in disbelief*)

Read their menu, Aussies, if you haven't!
