now i know the origin of the word...

...Antipodean (when it's used to refer to the Australians)smug

In geography, the antipodes of any place on Earth is its antipodal point; that is, the region on the Earth's surface which is diametrically opposite to it. Two points which are antipodal to one another are connected by a straight line through the centre of the Earth. Full article at Wikipedia HERE.

Turns out that if I dig a hole all the way straight through the Earth, I end up in Ecuador...
