means to go beyond civilization, end up in the middle of nowhere. "Beyond the Black Stump" is also a novel by British author Nevil Shute, published in 1956.
Derogatory term for Aborigines, short for "boomerang".
wrong! Wrong! WRONG! "Boomer" is
actually the name for a big male
Kangaroo.
Although the word isnt in common use any
more you will find it widely used
through
out Aussie literature (poetry etc) from
back
in the day.... Comment by: tangles
Umm... no...
Boomer refers to a male kangaroo. Hence
the song christmas song 'Six White
Boomers'.
I've heard 'boomer' used a lot but
never as a slur. Comment by: moggie

campfire; huddled around the campfire telling stories as you would congregate around the television back home.
I'm not from OZ, but I'm pretty sure
this
refers to the "bush telegraph" i.e. the
mysterious ways that news and gossip get
passed around in remote places. Not
literally smoke signals as once used by
American Indians. Comment by: dbeierl
no, it means that there's nothing to do
when you've gone bush but to sit around
a campfire and spend time with
everyone... like one does with a telly
when you're at home. Comment by: suzi
Hey dbbelert I think you mean the "bush
telegrah" Comment by: Aussie Mike
"Living in a land down under.
Where women glow and men plunder.
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover!" [from the Song Down Under by Men at Work]
No one in Australia calls it 'down
under' this
is embarrassing, and it is what the
American's say. Comment by: mate Rated:1/5
Absolutely correct. It is American
slang for
Australia. No one said Aussies use it.
:P Comment by: Twisted Rated:5/5
No one in New Zealand calls you this
either, or us for that matter. aussie is
"west island" :D Comment by: Jimmyjoe
So what do you Ozzies call us?
Antipodeans? Tell me we're not
Pommies...
;-) Incidentally, what about that song
from
?Men at Work? that talks about "a land
down under?" Comment by: dbeierl
"Down Under" is an advertising slogan by
the Aussies for the Yanks, but its not
actively used in Oz 'cept for the
tourists Comment by: Bluey Rated:2/5
What bullshit that Australians don't use
the
term, ever heard of a small Australian
band
called Men at Work and their famous song
that became, the unofficial Australian
anthem throughout the 80's and 90's
called
"Downunder".I come from the land
downunder! Comment by: Aussie Mike
