Budgie refers to a Budgerigar, a small bird native to Australia, I think you might call them parakeets. I.e. it looks like you are smuggling a budgie in the front of those speedos, it’s a bit rude but a commonly accepted term
From an Australian. I have NEVER heard 'crack off' meaning fart. We use 'crack on' all the time. It can mean to get started on something; 'time to crack on'. It can also mean to pick up as in ' I cracked on to a really hot sheila'
I can confirm. “Crack off” means to start something. (“What time did the boys start drinking last night?” “We cracked off at about 7”) Crack on is to continue something (“the boys are still cracking on from last night!”) And yes crack on also means to try and pick up. “That really drunk girl tried to crack on to me last night” I’ve heard “crack a fart” many times but crack off is definitely not fart.
Qlder here and some people use crack off for fart. It’s like breaking off the fart. Lots of people I know use it. So yes it’s used in some parts of Australia. Also you say mozzies with a weird ar sound. Mozzie should be pronounced like the o in a mop or hot etc not mar sound like Kmart.
That’s why Australians giggle so much when Americans ask which football team you root for! You could have also had “Gatorade Saxaphone” which is a home made bong made from a Gatorade bottle.
I love the term “budgie smugglers” as it is classic Aussie slang. You can’t look at a person wearing them and not visualise a small bird scrunched up inside. It also relates to wild life traffickers who often secrete small birds like budgies about their person when travelling overseas.
Mate, he was bang on with Track Pants. The word is short for Tracksuit pants. Which USA do call Track pants. Root can be a noun. ie: "He's my current root"
Quite common, comes from yank (aka American) then that became septic tank (because it rhymed) then it was shortened to seppo. Probably older Australian saying but I’ve heard it all over!
Great to see you two together!! I had actually seen James shortly before seeing you. I saw a collab with James & Kurtis & they mentioned you. I had seen their videos because of their sexuality. But I found you because of your video on Australian time zones. Besides being gay, I love geography, hence your Australian time zone video & then I found out that you were gay. I loved your coming out video especially.
We call budgie smugglers speedos too it's just another word for it. Also a budgie is a bird. Short for budgerigar. it's a euphemism for your you know what
@@Rage_Harder_Then_Relax I have lived here all my life and never heard or said "crack off" I have used and heard phrases such as "crack on" and "crack up" and even "cracking good time." I belong to a generation that being gay meant being happy and having a gaytime. A golden gaytime was a bloody icecream. I get a migraine when I hear "We all cracked on with having a gay time with our crack up" The mind boggles.
You would use the word fanny when talking to small kids as vagina could be considered a rude word or it was 20 years ago when I was little. For a boy you would say doodle instead of penis for the same reason, though now a days it’s not as much a thing as the proper words for genitals get a lot less stigmatised than 20 years ago so now it’s more of a personal preference thing.
We always said “moot” in the 1970’s and 80’s lol Like “stick that in your moot” Or “I’ll kick you in the moot” My mum thought fanny was rude lol like the way “pussy” is rude I miss the 1980’s *sigh*
@@TattooedAussieChick Yeah, I grew up in New Zealand in the 90's and it was the same. My mother always used to change the channel during the opening credits of _The Nanny_ because they "kicked her out on her fanny", which was too filthy for my mother's Christian sensibilities. Meanwhile, me and the neighbourhood kids were taking bets with Cynthia over how many marbles she could fit in her moot. (By the way, moot rhymes with foot, for anyone who's curious.)
Years ago my parents had an American come to stay and the first thing she did was stand in front of the heater.She said "I might just stand here and warm my fanny"...Dad spat his cuppa all over the carpet!!
That's ironic because you would use "fanny" when talking to kids in the states and referring to a butt. It's like saying "bottom". Just a nicer way to say it
How about the fact we call 14 days "fortnight".... Americans call it "Biweekly". Quite a few pay schedules for the mines and certain industries will pay fortnightly 🤷♀️ just thought it's weird no one ever touches on this subject
Septic tank goes back to WW2 when the American soldiers were stationed in Australia. I remember my grandmother discussing how the Septic Tank soldiers were paid better than the Australian so there was some rivalry between them as to who got the better dates during the war years. Bit of history for you.
There was a phrase about the septics. Over sexed, over paid, and over here. It is derogatory as our diggers were pissed off the local girls were quite happy to fill their dance card with the yanks who were attending the 2nd war.
This just took me back to year 6 when I was in the middle of class with my friends and we were just yelling words and one of the girls just shouted "FANNY! "The teacher heard and she came to us and told us to shoosh and dont say that word, and ofc we were all like why? its not a bad word and she quietly whispered what it meant and so for the rest of that day we were goin round the oval shouting "IM LOOKING FOR MY FANNY! FANNY! DO YOU LIKE FANNYS!"
Oi Tristan, regarding the spelling of budgie.......blah, blah, blah looks like the spelling police are about lol. Btw now you’re back home what are you doing for a crust?
I am Australian and I literally never heard Seppo or crack off meaning fart. Ever. Who were you hanging around with that used the word Seppo? After you explained the origins of it, that's fucking rude. I don't like it.
Great video. They are called Budgie Smugglers and I am guessing it is because the size down there looks like a Budgerigar (small Australian bird) is being smuggled down there. I might be wrong though.
Bottle O also used to be what someone would call out as they drove down your street. You would hear them and take out your empty beer bottles for $ In South Australia in 70s that I remember. We had 5c deposit scheme, dont think they gave the full amount back thats how they made $ Now 10c deposit on all drink bottles.
Tell you something no one ever talks about .. Pet ... we call a dog or a cat a pet .. but we call stroking them - giving them a " Pat " .. Yanks say pet .. so by that weird logic we would call dogs and cats our pats 😂
Iv got a hard Australian slang/phrase we use alot. "fair suck of the sav" (not sure if you have covered this in a previous video as iv only seen a couple but anyways)
I'm an Aussie and I've never heard of crack off. I don't say bottle o I say liquor store or bottle shop. I've never heard of a seppo who the hell says that
Or the 1980s classic I heard a lot when I first arrived from London "Fancy a root? Nah? Well I guess a blow job in the car park is out of the question then?" Classy lot I thought.. still here but. 😄
My first trip to the states in 1994 I was 30, and speaking in Aussie slang was normal, speaking it over there I was pulled up and asked what does that mean, I say what, they say that word you said, then I realised I speaking in Aussie slang, after a while l tried not to speak in Aussie slang!
Seppo? Never heard it. We Australians generally refer to Americans as Yanks. And never heard crack-on as a term for passing wind. We say fart, just like you.
This was fun! I just subscribed to your channel after watching your & Joseph’s collaboration video. Btw, you have an awesome smile. Looking forward to seeing more of your content. Were you in Australia for the Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras parade?
Interesting that he brought up mozzies referring to American Ozzies, cos "Mozzie" actually gets used as a mildly derogative (but mostly inoffensive) term for Maori Ozzies. If you go to places like the Gold Coast, where there's a high population of Maori immigrants from New Zealand, you'll hear Mozzie quite a bit (and yes, the relation to "mozzie" is very much the point).
So funny to see trying to work them out. One thing I find different about your vids is that you are not very loud and shouty! It’s so nice to just have your fun and enthusiastic chat. Honestly whatever happened to a bit of classy Americans?? So many noisy shouty bogans!!😂
Budgie refers to a Budgerigar, a small bird native to Australia, I think you might call them parakeets. I.e. it looks like you are smuggling a budgie in the front of those speedos, it’s a bit rude but a commonly accepted term
Ahhhhh, that makes sense haha
spot on mate.
Also 'dick stickers'
Budgie smuggler is a more common synonym for 'cock sock'
That’s exactly it
From an Australian. I have NEVER heard 'crack off' meaning fart. We use 'crack on' all the time. It can mean to get started on something; 'time to crack on'. It can also mean to pick up as in ' I cracked on to a really hot sheila'

I’ve heard “crack a fart” many times but crack off is definitely not fart.
I've heard kick off but never crack off.
Peter G, I agree. I’ve lived in NSW my whole life and never heard anyone say “crack off” to mean fart 😂
- Agree - from Queensland and I’ve not heard off ‘ Crack off ‘ meaning fart 💨
Qlder here and some people use crack off for fart. It’s like breaking off the fart. Lots of people I know use it. So yes it’s used in some parts of Australia. Also you say mozzies with a weird ar sound. Mozzie should be pronounced like the o in a mop or hot etc not mar sound like Kmart.
Brolly is actually British slang
Was gonna say hahaha iv never heard that here
@@macc4 You've never heard brolly in Australia? It's true that it's originally British, but it is 100% used in Australia, too.
0:42 - We did not ''destroy'' these words, we made them better :)
That’s why Australians giggle so much when Americans ask which football team you root for!
You could have also had “Gatorade Saxaphone” which is a home made bong made from a Gatorade bottle.
Australians don't root for their football team, they barrack for them.
It’s budgie smugglers not buggie smugglers
Aussie here, never heard anyone say "crack off", maybe pop off?
I heard it in melbourne from kids I coached. Maybe a younger southern thing?
@@TristanKuhn interesting. im from adelaide so its not a southern thing but maybe a Melbourne or eastern thing??
@@sassybdassi6686 I've heard it before in QLD, too. It's not super common but definitely exists.
Yeah you'd say it more as a kid then anything, no one rly says it that much lmfao
@@TristanKuhn Never heard of it in NSW...
Good luck back in America. We will be rooting for you.
Hahaha
That was fun! Im going to have to take a trip to Australia soon now that I speak the language 🙃
At least it was just the slang terms and not the hand or body gestures. Some of those leave you scratching your head in a confused state.
Just... please be careful!
Just remember to keep an eye open for Joe Blake’s, Drop bears, etcetera
Just don't say root and fanny together. Sounds stupid
In Aus we say “Speak the lingo”. 😂
I love the term “budgie smugglers” as it is classic Aussie slang. You can’t look at a person wearing them and not visualise a small bird scrunched up inside. It also relates to wild life traffickers who often secrete small birds like budgies about their person when travelling overseas.
I think you guys could be more than friends.
Tristan, since you've been back home you're looking really well, fun video by the way 🙂
Thanks man! Glad you enjoyed it
Tristan you have a lot more work to do before he will be up to speed. Don't forget to warn him about the drop bears.
I couldn't forget
Hence why in Oz we giggle like children when you say you "root" for a team..
A big nope to the “crack off” meaning fart 🤣 where in Australia is this phrase used!? I’ve lived in NSW my whole life and never heard anyone say this.
👍🏼
Heard it in Melbourne and mainly from kids
@@TristanKuhn Oh okay, that’s interesting! Thanks for the reply. You’re more cultured than I, Tristan 😁
I live in N.S.W and have heard it. It's usually said as to "crack one off".
Lmao, "root" very funny. Oh god "fanny", Tristan you're a naughty boy.
Mate, he was bang on with Track Pants. The word is short for Tracksuit pants. Which USA do call Track pants.
Root can be a noun. ie: "He's my current root"
When I heard an American say "they were going to put their keys in their "fanny pack" (bum bag). I near wet myself laughing.
haha
Love your videos
But it's BUDGIE Smugglers....
Not Buggie
Get it right mate or we wont let you back in the country.. haha
Hahaha good to know. You think I would have learned that by now
@@TristanKuhn ONYA
Never heard of seppo ever !!! And I’m aussie
Seppo is very common slang for USAians where I am
Quite common, comes from yank (aka American) then that became septic tank (because it rhymed) then it was shortened to seppo. Probably older Australian saying but I’ve heard it all over!
Definitely chemistry between you twp
Goes like the clappers. Means you are fast or going fast.
What's that? A paperclip in the old ear?? BuDgie smugglers. As for budgerigar bird
It is haha
Chew & spew not Maccas, never used crack off & never will, budgie not buggie & never referred to any yanks as seppo's..

Budgie is spelt "budgie", not "buggie" like a golf buggie

Seppo = Septic = Rhyming Slang For Septic Tank = YANK ........... all Americans are called that here.
Yeah nah not since maybe about 1946 I'd say.
@@triarb5790 You must me on another planet - not everyone uses the Yank Slang & pretend to be a wannabe gangster. Seppo is used often as is Seppo.
Crack off is not a common name for fart we say who dumped there guts
Yes it is....it's used a lot. And it's not a "name". It's a saying.
@@Rage_Harder_Then_Relax must just a southern name not used in the north
Crack off isn't true slang, it's something the younger generation may use. A more accurate phrase is Who cut the cheese, or Who opened the cheese box.
@@Rage_Harder_Then_Relax I’m from the south we def don’t use crack off. We say ‘ripper’

You did ok Joseph. You will have to come to Australia to learn more slang words. I couldn't stop laughing Tristan. You have done well.
You can see where SELFIE came from 🇦🇺❤
Never heard SEPPO before.
Im Australian and have never heard American's called seppo....
I've known people who have used it for years, and I've lived in Aus my whole life.
Definitely a super common thing. I heard it all the time in Melbourne and Sydney. Little less so in Brisbane but still common.
@@SiilanPies maybe it's an older generation thing...
You don't hear it so much, and it is a little derogatory.
I'm glad you're having fun with what you've learned....
Budgie smugglers Vos it looks like you're smuggling a budgie at the front
I live here in Australia and honestly mate have NEVER heard seppo or brolly... or crack off haha
In NSW, have heard it said my whole life :) (apart from crack off?)
Fun video. Joseph was mostly wrong, but very creative.
Hope you enjoyed your time here in 🇦🇺 stay safe over in the US Hope you enjoy a snag or 2 if ya know what I mean
BUDGIE - not BUGGIE !!!!!!
Man I'm 50 and never heard "crack off" in my life, Queensland thing I guess?, most of a Australia have no clue what those weirdos get up to.
na. I'm from Queensland.. never heard it. Heard of crack on .. which means to get on with something or get something done. never crack off.

My favourite animal in Australia is the wombat. Because it eats, roots & leaves.
The f#@k is Crack off🤣 I think you mean whack in for a fart, never heard of Crack off🤷
just an fyi seppo is an insult to Italian's where as yank is for american's
You can also use root as a noun, e.g. "We had a root in the kitchen", or "She's a pretty shit root", or "I'm fangin' for a root."

For a bit of interesting historical background on the sentiment behind the word sepo and it’s physical expression, google “battle of Brisbane”.
also Yank soldiers were 'overpaid, overdressed, oversexed and over here"
Seppo? Never heard it. We Australians generally refer to Americans as Yanks. And never heard crack-on as a term for passing wind. We say fart, just like you.
It's super common to call them both seppos and yanks. Seppo is literally a rhyming slang involving yanks. American -> yank -> septic tank -> seppo.
