the committee. Held on the Monday run closest to 22 Feb
each year. Also referred to as the AGPU or Annual General
Piss up. |
| Big
Prick Award |
Keenly sought by Harriettes. If you need to know why, ask
one yourself. |
| Circle |
see
The Circle. |
| Cobblers |
What
is said around the circle after the run itself? |
| Down
– Down |
A
compulsory mug of light beer, which must be, consumed non-stop,
or failing this poured over your head. To be awarded a down-down
is a hash honour and cannot be refused. Awarded to celebrate
a hasher’s first run, last run or some real or imagined
transgressions of hash law. Always awarded to hares for
their efforts regardless of the results. |
| False
Trail |
Go
back, you’re going the wrong way - aka a falsie. |
| FIGJAM |
What
the Grandmaster is. Fuck I’m Good Just Ask Me. (this
may well mean I could be called in, if of course he can
read). |
| FOYAHAGT |
What
the Hash Dray calls out when he wants to go home and also
when he knows no RBT’s are left on Canberra roads.
How a trailer with a freezer aboard hasn’t been pulled
over in 22 years is quite amazing? |
| Founders
Run |
Run
set by a Founder if any remain alive or still domicile in
Canberra. Run the week before AGM/AGPU. |
| FRB
award |
Usually
goes to someone who rarely made it to the front of the pack
at any stage of the run. |
| G.M. |
Grand
Master/Grand Mattress. The leader of the hash. Elected at
the AGM. Leads the pack out and tries to run the On-On can
never be charged even if they are stupid or fucked up very
badly. |
| Hare |
Bastard
who sets the run for the pack of hounds to follow. |
| Harriette |
Hound
with larger than average backsides. Usually female. |
| Hashshit |
A
trophy awarded from time to time for some particularly fuck
witted effort by the Hares or Hounds. |
| Hash
Cash |
Thought
to be the only honest member of the Hash. Responsible for
collecting the money each Monday night and listening to
pathetic excuses why they can’t pay up. |
| Hash
Dray |
The
most important person on the Hash. Is respected more than
the Grandmaster/Mattress. No run has ever commenced until
the Hash Dray has arrived and is safely parked. |
| Hash
Flash |
Another
new committee position with a habit of standing between
you and the fire bucket for considerable lengths of time
and not elected for any prowess with a Kodak Brownie. |
| Haberdash |
Is
usually chosen for their distinct lack of salesmanship and
forgetfulness, As whenever somebody wants to buy something
it is invariable in the boot of their other car. |
| Hash
Horn |
Occurs
when a male runner catches up to a female runner. A musical
instrument, which is gives a sound to guide the hounds to
the beer truck. The hasher who has a horn sometimes. |
| Hash
Mash |
Hopefully
what you get after the circle and run. |
| Hash
Mugs |
The
things you drink out of or the people that fill them up. |
| Hash
Orgy |
Sad
to say wishful thinking, organiser of food at Hash events. |
| Has
Pyros |
Elected
because of their juvenile police record of torching
their Primary School and having the ability to create showers
of sparks every time they stoke the Hash fire bucket. |
| Hash
Sheet |
oAad
of drivel put out each week, that best describes the last
run and tells where the next run is, plus any other crap
that the scribe can dream up. |
| Hash
Trash |
Drivel;
whether in the hash sheet or elsewhere such as the yearbook,
which we haven’t had for a while, as lazy Committee
members would rather drink piss at meetings than doing something
useful for a change. |
| Hash
Waiter |
Another
of the seemly endless committee members who carries the
beer into the circle. |
| Hash
WWW.Webmaster/mistress |
A
relatively new position as we didn’t have computers
when the Hash started. Looks after the web page and hassles
people to write articles for it. |
| Home
|
Where
you want to end up, the Beer Wagon/Truck/Dray and hopefully
where your car is parked. |
| Hounds |
The
poor bastards trying to follow the trail. |
| Interhash |
A
meeting of international Hash Chapters every two years. |
| Lets
hear you |
A
demand for information about the trail to the runners in
front from the runners at the back. |
| Lil
Prick |
Often
what a Harriette gets when she wants the other one. |
| Looking |
A
call meaning the pack has lost the trail and is trying to
re-discover same. (Not to be called at a check where the
proper call is “checking”.) |
| Lost |
See
above. |
| Lost
Control |
Similar
to above, but in the circle when Grandmaster loses it. |
| On-On |
A
call shouted by the hounds loudly and often when they are
on trail. The piss-up at the end of the run. Any gathering
of two or more hounds for the purpose of having a few drinks
can be, or is in fact, an On On. |
| On-Down |
A
call by the lucky bastards already at the top of a hill. |
| On-Home |
A
call made when the beer trailer is in sight. |
| On-In |
A
call made when the beer trailer is in sight, or when the
pack wades into a river or a piece of shiggy. |
| On-Out |
Dreaded
call by the G.M. to get the pack moving out at the start
of the run almost always later than 1800. |
| On-Over |
A
call crossing a bridge if it stands up to the weight, otherwise
a call of “AAAGH shit or fucken hell..!” is.
|
| On-Up |
An
encouragement to shortcut. (Ask any smart SCBer) |
| On-Sex |
No,
it’s not gentlemen. The name given to the honourable
member who is supposed to keeps records and write letters
to other hashes, etc. Also referred to as the Dishon sec |
| Pack |
The
hounds collectively. |
| Paper |
The
trail set by the Hare/Hares. |
| RA |
Charged
with upholding or amending, as appropriate, the lore of
the hash. Also to provide unfortunate new hash prints with
a name they will grow to love, or a name that will give
them a very good reason to go somewhere else on a Monday
night. Also an astute if misguided weather forecaster. |
| S.C.B. |
Short
Cutting Bastard. See EWOR or Scarlet for the finer points
of this art/skill. |
| Shiggy |
Any
foul smelling, evil, sticky goo. |
| The
Circle |
A
round object usually in an O shape. |
| Trail |
Marked
in blobs of flour or chalk arrows usually on the left or
right side of trail or sometimes in the middle, it’s
also what you follow to get home again, but watch out for
falsies! (And not the ones you’re thinking of) |
| Trail
Maste |
Attempts
to force hounds to become a hare also tries to get scribes
to send in their version of last week’s run, usually
not very successfully. |
| Scribe |
The
poor bastard who is press-ganged into writing up the run. |
| Virgin |
I
used to go out with a young lass called Virginia, I called
her virgin for short but she wasn’t that for long.
I digress; it’s a new hare/harriette. |
