If someone is mint, they are fine they are attractive it is a compliment if someone calls you mint. It is an Australian slang for beautiful.

TAKING THE PISS:

If someone is taking a piss, they are being made fun of. If all your friends are poking fun at someone that person is taking the piss speaking of piss.

SLASH:

Have a slash take a slash. It is to urinate to pee. I really like it and I think slash is one of those Aussie words that I’m going to really integrate into my own vocabulary.

A flog is a disliked person. Someone’s just kind of like a moron people don’t really like. I don’t respect their opinions their thoughts kind of hard to describe that one but I don’t know I’ll just throw the definition of that one right up so you can read it if you want.
