Slang

Posted by Brian

I’d like to say that LanguageHat has a grouse post about Aussie slang for you bludgers to go have a perv at next smoko, but sadly a few of those words are neither in my idiolect nor the Officially Approved Idiolect of Crooked Timber.

Mate, you might have a perv at a sheila, but I reckon you’d be out of your tree to have a perv at some dodgy article. Maybe take a butcher’s or have a bit of a gander, mind. That’d be all right. And I’m not pissing in your pocket.
