Yep, and the rest of Canada knows that BC is a bit too high on weed, maybe that's why you have such odd slang.

Hah.

It's really just slang from our school. Some friends of mine made up budge.

We also say things like:

LGs (Little girls): Girls in the 9th grade

skippy: correct. ie. you're damn skippy.

Rager: Hard-on ie. he has a major rager.

Chooch: Someone who never shares anything ie. Give me a chip, you chooch.

Skid: person or people who are asshole stoners or drunks. Also, people who are dirty or beat people up for fun are also called skids.

I don't bother with slang anymore, it takes way too much hard work to figure out what it means, and then, when you get accustomed to saying it, it's totally played out. Only times I usually get into contact with it these days is in some rap, and sometimes I have to look the stupid words up at stupid sites like:
http://www.urbandictionary.com/
http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~wrader/slang/
http://www.thablingster.com/dictionary.html
http://www.cox-internet.com/dabster/slang.htm

Standard English is sufficient enough for me.

Sjakie means... loser or something, in a funny way. You can say 'sjakie' in someone's face.

I've never heard of that one, but I wonder if it's meant to be spelled 'serial', as in 'serial killer'. A serial killer is pretty serious, so saying something is serial would make more sense to me.

Expert - Somebody who is really good at a video game.
Expert (with a sarcastic tone of voice) - somebody who really sux @ a video game, but somehow does well in it.
Tosser - Loser (but I don't use this word much)
Truly - Means "really"? I learnt this when I was in Cairns
Goodo - Good
Root - To have sex
Shazza - Really Australian woman with an annoying whinging accent who has probably taken many drugs (Shazza is slang for Sharon).
Legit - Somebody who is not legitimite (sp?) E.g. You see this guy driving a Ferriari who is wearing thongs and a singlet.
Yobbo - Really Australian person (offensive term)
Skip - Another really Australian Person (offensive term)
Wog - European backgrounded Australian Person (offensive term). I'm a wog
Bogan - Australian person who is a loser
Derro - Same as above

If I get your meaning (considering you don't use 'legit' in your e.g. ), that reminds me of a joke we say a lot. Whenever someone revs their car loudly or jumps their gas or any numerous macho things with their car as you're walking alongside, we'll say, "JESUS, that guy's penis was so big it nearly hit me in the face." Or any numerous variations on that joke.

Which also reminds me of some Bostonian slang that a Bostonian friend taught me.

"Mikey Muscles, Tommy Toughnuts, and Bobby Bigwheels."

Mikey Muscles = Guy who shows off his muscles with muscle-shirts, even if he has little to no muscles.

Tommy Toughnuts = Guy who doesn't move out of the way for people walking by. Often will knock shoulders in the process or on purpose and talk **** because the other guy didn't move out of the way enough.

Bobby Bigwhells = Guy with a huge, unnecessarily jacked-up truck. Often the guy is a small and squeacky-voiced. Often found in Texas (where I live).

But don't get me wrong, I love Texas.
