Aussie salute 

Brushing away flies with your hand.

Apparently, this is used somewhere in Australia but I haven't heard of it and I live in WA. Sounds pretty backwater.

"Aussie salute" - Just another unintellectual way of expressing disdain for authority, when you think about it.

bastard

If you've spent too long in the sun (or the supermarket), as many out-of-doors Australians have, this becomes an expression of endearment. Similar to the oft maligned mate.

"You old bastard, hahaha!"
"Uh, yes, thank you."
