Cockney ryhming slang for a yank (american). The whole phrase is 'Septic Tank' - but as with most cockney ryhming slang the first word is used only. The reason for the link is that, like a septic tank nobody likes a filthy stinking american!!!

Yanks.
The kind of idiot who votes a thumbs down to a perfectly good slang word definition, just because they havent heard it in their neck of the woods, and probably has a brother called "Troy" or some such nonsense. You know who you are, you mugs!

Relating to sewage. Can also be short for "septic tank", or an underground container where sewage and sink waste is drained to.
I had to hire a plumber to fix the leaky septic under our yard because shit was bubbling to the top.

British cockney rhyming slang for a Yank (a Yankee, an American). As in 'Septic Tank Yank'. I'm told by my British friends the origin of this was the British military, where in WWI American infantrymen exhibited the worst of the worst language, and talked a lot of crap. But being from California, I remind them that I'm about as Yankee as an Australian is a Brit. Calling everyone in America a Yank is really ignorant. The British say Septic, while Australians generally say Seppo (compounded ignorance).
"(The septic..,) Giving the British the synthesizer was like giving whiskey to the Indians - it ruined a nation. - jps"
