Brilliantly irreverent Australian slang for a urinal cake — the deodorizing puck placed in the drain of a pub or public toilet urinal. The name is wonderfully deadpan: a "lolly" is Australian slang for candy, and a "trough" is what a pub urinal often looks like. Calling the thing a trough lolly is peak Australian humor — finding comedy in the most mundane and disgusting corners of daily life. It's the kind of phrase that makes people laugh precisely because it's so matter-of-fact about something gross.

The pub's dunny smelled aggressively of trough lolly, which is somehow both better and worse than the alternative.
