Please note that not all Australians speak and behave like this woman. She is what we here in Oz refer to as a "bogan" which would be the US version of "white trash" or "redneck" and the UK equivalent of a "chav".

We are not "a vulgar people" or "savages" but (thank god) we are also not a continent of pompous twits either.

The best unintentional euphemism for sex ever is in the lede, and only requires minor repunctuation: "A WOMAN accused of performing a sexual act on a man (when he crashed) in Darwin's rural area…"

I'm so glad you guys have Balk on the important dual "Blowjob" and "Blowjob Denials" beat… a role he was truly born to play.

"The driver was charged with drink driving after allegedly blowing .147 per cent"
so…there was fellatio or not? I'm confused…

Also: "ute" is an abbr. of "Utility" as in "Sport Utility Vehicle," for all y'all lackin' in antipodal knowledge…

For a country with towns like Wagga Wagga and Toowoomba, I'm kind of surprised (and disappointed?) they're called 'boobs' there also.

Already been stated by jfruh, but $5 seems about right for a backcountry hand job. Certainly qualifies as "amorous activities"…

Note to our new Australian mates here at the Awl: Jfruh is just teasing. I believe I speak for all Americans when I say we join you in your love of blow and hand jobs!!
