    He'd have definitely got Jacko, not a shadow of a doubt.

    Or anywhere else as long as the baggy greens are winning.

    You know that almost any word can be shortened with an O added, rego, demo, metho, muso, smoko, servo and all the rest.

    You’re a real Aussie when

    You know stubbies can be worn or drank from.

    You know the “I’ in Australia is optional and “Straya” is OK by you.

    You know you wear a thong on your foot not under your pants.

    You know Wagga Wagga can be Wagga, Kurri Kurri can be Kurri, Wangi Wangi can be Wangi but Woy Woy is never Woy.

    You know that almost any word can be shortened with an O added, rego, demo, metho, muso, smoko, servo and all the rest.

    You pronounce Melbourne, Mel Bin.

    You are secretly proud of the killer wildlife.

    You don’t laugh when someone says Wooloomaloo.

    You think that a $1 coin being twice as big as a $2 coin is reasonable.

    The more you shorten someone’s name the more you like them, unless they’ve got a short name then you should lengthen it.

    You know there are universal places called Whoop Whoop and the Black Stump.

    You’ve swallowed a fly, even through the nose.

    You understand that “Excuse me” can sound rude but not “‘scuse me”.

    “Beetroot on you hamburger” Of course.

    It’s not summer until the steering wheel is too hot to touch and the seatbelt buckle makes a good branding iron.
    Had a few chats here about Aussieisms at times so I thought I'd post this, a lot of it might make no sense around here but it might give some a giggle.
