Australian slang is funny. Especially their insults.

Hee! It almost sounds like a civilized language, but not.

Also, the slur terms you folks use for homosexuals crack me up. "Shirt-lifter"?

Is that a rhyme to something? Or do Australian homosexuals wear special shirts that need lifting while engaged in gay sex?

Pull yer noggin in, mate.

I always thought shirt-lifter was borrowed from England? I've heard it used in English TV shows and books, which is why I know it. It may be they don't use it much over there any more, but it's hung around here, as troglodytes in Australia are twenty years behind troglodytes elsewhere.

Dunno. Can't say I have heard it before.
