The infamous "Bart vs. Australia" episode of The Simpsons is known for many things.
Bringing the world's attention to the great game of Knifey-Spooney, showcasing Australia's preference for beer over coffee, and explaining our nation's disciplinary methods with "The Boot" (disparaging The Boot is a bootable offence). The episode acted as a great advertisement for the Land Down Under and helped inspire plenty of tourists to travel to our distant shores.
Now, some soon-to-be Australian legend has called on the citizens of this great nation to sign a petition demanding our politicians change the name of our currency to "Dollarydoos."
The term of course comes from the unnamed father of Tobias, a simple Australian boy tricked into a six-hour collect call with Bart Simpson.

The petition cites plummeting global commodity prices and the struggling Australian economy in its mission statement.
"We need something to stimulate the Australian economy and that something is changing the name of the Australian currency to 'Dollarydoos'," the petition states.
"This will make millions of people around the world want to get their hands on some Australian currency due to the real life Simpsons reference, driving up the value of the Australian currency. If the leaders of this great nation have any common sense at all, they will introduce legislation to parliament to change the name of our currency as soon as possible."
