In rememberance of some of the wacky language that made up the Aussie venacular in a time before political correctness, we invite you to share and build this post into a list of Aussie sayings that you remember, or maybe still use!! Give a translation too if you can. For example, do you call a meat pie a "maggot bag?".

Try if you can to limit the number of crass sayings please, it would be more useful if the sayings you selected were clever, funny, and out of the gutter but it must be recognised that many of these "out of fashion" Aussie sayings went out of fashion just for being that - too inappropriate to be repeated in the mainstream (being created by farmers and people living a hard life that didn't have to worry about every word they said). But here you are invited to share and list the ones you think we should celebrate and remember.

WARNING: This post may contain pejoratives and disparaging innuendo that may offend. We take no responsibility for any offence taken by person reading the material that may be posted here.
