Call in to work or skip school and opt out for a sick day whether you're sick or not.

After hitting up the club and the Waffle House, I decided to chuck a sickie so I could stay home and chill.

Chuck a Sickie 

To stay home from work or school pretending to be sick. (NOTE: Not to be confused with the Japanese "Chakuseki", meaning sit down).

Mike: Man, I don't want to go to work. I might just chuck a sickie.
Dave: Chakuseki? YOU CAN DO THAT AT WORK, FOOL!

chucking a sickie is where you call in work or school and say your sick when you're fine. its not australian, its english slang and i hate how people always confuse australian slang with english slang.
