TERROR AUSTRALIS: Aussie Slang

Aussies talk funny - have you noticed? We have a great broad accent and some really outstanding slang to go with it.
Here is just a small selection of some of our rare and wonderful phrases and what they mean to those not from down under:
1. Don’t piss in me pocket
"You are overly flattering me."
2. Flat out like a lizard drinking
"A very busy person."
3. As cunning as a rat in a brick sh*t house
"Someone not to be trusted."
4. Laugh into the big white telephone
"The act of vomiting into a toilet."
5. A face like a dropped pie
"Not a person blessed with good looks."
6. Full as a butcher's pup
"A person who has eaten enough and is satisfied."
7. I had a dingo's breakfast
"I’ve had a pee and a good look around."
8. A bees dick
"A very very small amount."
9. Got up at sparrows fart
"I got up very early this morning."
10. Yeah nah/ nah yeah
This is hard to translate, meaning something like: after considering the pros and cons, the speaker has quickly landed on a decision
Only in Australia!
