Query: Australian Slang
Apr. 3rd, 2006 01:59 pmCan any of our Friends Down Under give me a prefereably semi-nasty bit of slang used by native Australians to describe their white neighbors?
Not that this has anything to do with the previous post, mind you... :)

I just did a search and came upon "ABC". I've never heard it myself, but it's very derogatory. I would guess it doesn't get used much.
