The most common phrase in the Australian vocabulary. May be used adequately in situations ranging from benign endings to conversations to matters of earth shattering importance.
1. "See ya later mate" - "No worries"
2. "Bob, your girlfreind is about to have the baby of a mutated albino dwarf conceived in Antartica while identifying the mating habits of plankton of varying sizes" ..... "No worries"
3. "Dave just cut his thumb off using the oxy" - "No worries - is he still coming up the pub later?"

In USA, a flippant expression, almost always spoken by people who are insecure, as a way to quickly both end the conversation, and demean the other person by making it seem as though they were worried, when they were not. A top-down mentality, to belittle someone, from people of vast insensitivity. Should be banished immediately.

The opposite of no worries.
A retort used to impose a reality check on an idiot -- Australian or otherwise -- who attempts to dismiss a worrisome situation with their inappropriately optimistic bullshit.
