Doing a 'Bally'

When someone is doing a 'Bally' they are generally not coming into work because they have a minor sniffle - or in most cases there is nothing wrong them at all, and they had simply heard another person in the work place was unwell, and decided to jump onto their bandwagon.

Person 1 - "Have you seen Woody today?" - Person 2 "He's not in, he's doing a 'Bally'"

Doing a Genova

When someone skips out of work early without letting management or their fellow peers know.

Ninjas off!

"Has anyone seen Paul? Haven't seen him since lunch!"

"He's doing a Genova, dipped home after lunch on the sly!"

"Sneaky b******!"

Doing it for the notes

When someone acts completely different to how they actually are to ‘impress’ people online. Their posts are like blanket statements that loads of people can relate to, or show a particular trait or angle of sympathy that people are fond of, for the sole purpose of getting notes. Hence, doing it for the notes.

“He really has a tough life…this kid has 6 types of cancer, no parents, AND he does charity work for animals. I bet he’s a really cool guy!”

“He’s a dickhead really. He's just doing it for the notes.”

rare-do

A hair-do that is extremely rare. a desperate attempt for people to demonstrate how unique and different they are.very common within 'indie' teenagers.

person 1:has that lad shaved half of his hair off or am i seeing things?
person 2: yeah what a dick,he clearly thinks he looks cool
person 1:i hate how common rare-do's are becoming nowadays!

do ma

"Fuck your mum", very offensive if misdirected at a Vietnamese speaker, and mildly offensive or even playful among familiars.

Origin: Vietnamese - common usage amongst Caucasians noted in the Springvale area.

"What the hell? Do ma!" - surprise, disdain

"Do ma fuck you!" - affectionate playful jibe

"Do ma mae" - this person seriously has nothing to say, and simply emitted this sequence of sounds out of habit.

Just Do

When you can't be bothered to explain something, the reasoning behind what you have done is that you simply just do.

"Katie why do you eat 6790854 grapes a day?"
