fair dinkum

Originates from when Captain Cook first landed in Australia. When they used to drink the toast would be "Fair Drinking" and the saying has evolved from there.

Fair Dinkum Aussie Dingo

A return response to an Aussie mate (male) usually over a few beers who says something so outrageous that “fair dinkum” just doesn’t cut it.
Mate at pub: Went fishing, fell in the water, got attached by a shark, managed to get out of the water fairly unscathed and scored a root on the walk back to the Ute.

Response: Fair dinkum Aussie dingo!
