I don't think so. At least i have never heard it anywhere else before. It's like the word "bamboozling" in India, that seems to be used more by them than anyone else. ;)
Where are you from? My relatives live in Melbourne. They are part of the greek community that was brought / invited after WW 2 to kickstart the economy. Somewhat like the italians in germany.
I'm from Melbourne. Most of my childhood friends were Greek. I lived in a predominantly Greek part of town. There is still a huge Greek population there.

That's so cool. It would be so funny if you know my family over there ;) The world is so small :) Does the surname Kolokythas ring a bell?

It's possible I could have come across that name when I was living in that area. I don't recall. I moved from that area about twenty years ago. Greek culture was everywhere in Melbourne in the 80s. Television shows, plays, etc. Not so much now.
It's a small world.

Really? Television shows? Wow, i didn't know it was that big. Australia is so nice. Specially Melbourne. I love the area around the Library in the city center. I wonder if that place is still around that sells all things chocolate. Had my best hot chocolate ever there.

The deadliest animals are all in Parliament House (see the cyclical nature of this conversation?)
