My Class in Strine (Aka Australian) slang

So after a casual metion of the Servo, Bottle O and Sando, my 2 mentors decided to further educate me on australian...excuse me I meant Strine slang.

Why is it Strine slang? Because if you say the word Australian in the australian outback accent fast enough, you'll hear it as Strine! So Strine it is!
