Are You a Seppo?

Courtesy of a funny diss of music emanating from these United States, I just learned a new derogatory term for people like me: seppo.

I thought it might have been a shortening of "separators," since I was reading a blog hosted in the UK, and you know how some of those people still feel about our little breakaway. However, according to Convict Creations, it's an example of Australian rhyming slang:

Seppo - Yank. (From Septic Tank)

Who even knew the Australians had rhyming slang?
