Brit-Speak Q&A

[Clodfobble]

Explain this one to me, if you please:

Your children's television program Charlie & Lola has been imported over here for many years. On the Disney website, there are a number of themed games you can play, one of which is Flip-Flop: an analog to our game of "memory," except instead of precisely matching the images under the cards, you are to match things in logical pairs, like the pirate with the pirate ship, etc.

First off, I have trouble with the so-called correct match of a mermaid and fish sticks... "because mermaids always eat niblets of the sea!" That's weird enough in itself, but cannibal mermaids notwithstanding, I simply can't fathom this one:

The Lion matches The Toothbrush. "Because lions are always stealing your toothbrush!"

WTF?
