shake battle 

A verb used to describe the often disappointing process of searching one's room/home/desk (etc.) or collection of dabows for enough shake to pack a bowl or roll a joint.

Shake battles are either won or lost. If an individual finds enough shake to get sufficiently baked then it's a win. However, if the collected shake is smoked and it's not enough, the shake battle is lost.

Can be used in past tense to reference the theater of combat.
"If we're gonna pack that bowl, we'll need to shake battle"

"I just shake battled my desk and won. Sick."

Fair shake of the sauce bottle 

Speaking to Sky News after the swearing in of new ministers, Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd rejected the view that not enough women were promoted.

"Fair shake of the sauce bottle, mate," he said. "If you were to compare what this Government has done in terms of the promotion of women of talent and ability compared with our predecessors, it's chalk and cheese."

Used to inform somebody that they’re taking more than their share or are engaged in some kind of unfair practice.
In June 2009, Australia's Prime Minister Kevin Rudd when persistently questioned by a reporter about how he'd arrived at a decision about the composition of his ministers, responded three times during an interview "Fair shake of the sauce bottle, mate." Critics thought he was trying too hard to use Australian slang to boost his popular appeal.
