Aussies use the term 'bloody sepos' to describe Americans.

The etymology: Bloody Yanks -> Septic Tanks -> Bloody sepos.

You very rarely hear it here these days. It was of its time - 1950s through, possibly, to the 1970s.

Same with the verse of Tie Me Kangaroo Down, that includes a reference to Abbos (no, not the disco group).

My friend Coatsey taught me all these fascinating Aussie factoids a couple of years ago, but all I ever heard was 'bloody immigrants.'

And no-one thinks it's funny to answer the question on the immigration form which reads:

Q: Have you ever been convicted of a felony?
A: I didn't know that was still a requirement.

NOT FUNNY!

Australia's great, if you don't count Perth, Adelaide, Brisbane, and the flying fox poo.

One day, hopefully, Rolf Harris will suffer for the shyte he has inflicted on so many people.

That's all we still hear thanks to our racist, xenophobic Federal Government.
