Seppo - Derogertory word used by the English and Australians for all American nationals. Derived from Rhyming slang (Septic Tank = Yank)
Terry it really pisses me off that you would lie to me. I mean, where is our relationship supposed to go from here.
Well I'm pissed off now, I always thought "Seppo" was an endearing term for an American, although, I was a bit confused when it was extrapolated into "Seppo Wanker", I thought that maybe that was an endearing term for an American pervert, or perhaps an American Ducati rider?
Wow that pisses me off, all that time I've been calling my American mates "Seppo's", only to find out that it's Derogatory? What next, I can't call my Italian friends "Dagos", or my Mexican friends "Spicks" any more? Damn, what a kick in the nuts! Can I still call my Jewish mates "Red Sea Pedestrians", or is that a no-no too?
Sorry to see that you've got Triumph woes too, I love my Rocket III, but 2012 hasn't been a good year for it, my output shaft bearing collapsed on Jan 28, that cost me $2207.95 as the bike was well out of warranty, even if it only had 6,000 miles on the clock and it's a known issue on the 2004-2009 models, but Triumph won't do a recall. Good thing though (if there is anything good about an almost new bike schitting itself 100 miles from home) is that Triumph installed the complete "Upgrade kit", which takes it up to 2010 spec, so hopefully nothing else expensive will go wrong with it, it's a real beast and I hope I'm still riding it into my retirement.
