Old Australian slang, derived from mid-late 1850s during the gold rush era.
The phrase was originally used by prospectors in reference, to their panning techniques and equipment maintenance. It is thought to be in reference to the practise of oiling ones pan before panning for gold, this was found to be a hindrance on yield.
Seldom heard in modern vernacular, the term now refers to describe any sort of practise which could be deemed inefficient or causing pronounced difficulty in a task.

Being so extremely gay that there is a high chance of said gay person exploding into kittens and rainbows. Not to be confused with gay as a picnic basket, which is the stable equivalent.

Eric - I'm going to keep my distance, my insurance doesn't cover injuries made by shards of rainbows!
Josh - Now that you mention is, I am allergic to cats.... Better safe than sorry....

When a fella sits on your face resting a bollock (his eggs) in each one of your eye sockets (the baskets) and the residue from his sweaty hoop leaves a shit stained dot where a bindi would be.
