Default Slanguage

We Aussies have as good a knack for mangling the English language as we do for thrashing the poms at cricket.

Just found this amusing site on the subject.

Here are a couple at random:

Shank's pony

to travel on foot.

shark bait

a person that swims further out to sea than others.

scumbag

a low down despicable person.

cackleberry

egg.

cactus

dead; ruined; spoiled.

cake hole

mouth.

call 'Ralph'

to vomit.

camp as a row of tents

a homosexual male.
