#Seppo empowers you to publish short texts (and images yet to come) and to network in the Social Web. By renting commodity web space and dropping a single file. Without being subject to terms and conditions. Without having to fret about small print or tech lore. And without the need for an IT-consultant. But rather having a life.
It’s a bit harsher than “Pom” and is rarely used in a positive way, unlike Pom which can be an insult or a term of endearment. I don’t think I’ve ever heard Seppo used in a positive way, now that I think of it.
Not quite. Yank would be a closer comparison to Pom.
Seppo is closer to “Pommy bastard” in terms of severity. It can be used in a good natured way, but it’s slightly derogatory.
Sort of, although Pom is at least a century older as Seppo was coined during world war 2. It comes from the rhyming slang Yank to Septic Tank to Seppo.
It came from the swagger of the US service men in Aus during the war and the implication that many of them are full of shit.
