Crook As Rookwood

Crook is Australian slang for feeling sick as in, "I'm feelin' real crook, mate." It can also mean something that is distasteful as in, "That's crook!" Rookwood Cemetery is located in Sydney, Australia, so something must be real bad or rotten to say it's as crook as Rookwood.

"Mate, seriously, she was as crook as Rookwood."
