Strine

A word coined by Americans to describe the Australian accent. This word is not used by Australians, and American tourists who use it in Australia soon learn not to. See also cobber.

Yank tourist: "I gotta brush up on my Strine!"
Me: "Strine? Hmmm, a sucker... Hey mate, you wanna buy a galah for 50 grand?"
Yank tourist: "Yeah, sure will buddy!"
(I walk away 50 grand richer while Yank tourist gets 10 years for exporting wildlife that farmers shoot as a pest!)

fcuk

Fashion/Apparel company that used a contrived acronym (French Connection United Kingdom) to allow them to create a logo that looked like a common expletive at first glance. A typical example of the desperate and murky depths to which modern marketing vermin will sink to make a buck.

Anyone who buys fcuk gear is a brainwashed cretin who falls for pathetic marketing ploys.

disney

v. The act of economically influencing a sovereign government into passing oppressive and dehumanising laws intended only to benefit the interests of corporate enterprise. Derived from the historical fact that the last 6 revisions of copyright law immediately preceded the time when Mickey Mouse would otherwise have passed into the public domain.

I see the recording industry has disneyed anti-circumvention laws through Parliament last week.

Microsoft just pulled a disney on the anti-trust laws in our country.

Cambodian accessory

A term recently awarded "The Most Outrageous Word" by the American Dialectical Society, referring to Angelina Jolie's adopted Cambodian son. The term suggests a cynical motive for celebrities adopting children from third-world nations, being more to promote their public image than from any genuine motive of saving starving children.

Hey, have you checked out AJ's latest Cambodian accessory? Those celebs are getting social engineering down to a fine art!
