How about sick - instead of cool.
Dread - annoying/disturbing thing e.g 'I can't believe she did that.' 'Yeah, that's just dread.'

I've always like "Spanked" as well. Synonyms also include whipped, whupped, beat, beat down, hammered, thrashed, destroyed, trounced, and whalloped.

Just as a follow-up, are we speaking mainly of Aussie slang, or worldwide english users?

well i'm definitely not aussie, but i'm into a vlog done by this aussie girl who's like 21. The only things i've picked up are arvo (afternoon), and mozzies (mosquitoes). i also found it cool that they call markers, texters. yeah, australians are cool, with their words and stuff

oh, there's also *edit* and *edit*, but they're definitely not appropriate for this forum :P
