What slang (words or phrase) do you use that you feel is uniquely from your country.

For example in my country (south africa) we use phrases like "howzit my bru" to say hello to people, or "chow" is food, and to "go dos" is to have a nap. Or a braai is a barbeque. and a doos is an idiot.

Please tell me your country as well.

Thanx!
