    Yeah, it’s a nickname. We all know it’s “A.C.D.C” but we say Acca Dacca cause that’s what Aussies do.

      It’s kinda more fun to say it that way with a bogan accent too (that’s like redneck or chav depending on where you’re from) ,

      ‘oi daz? Youse know where me accadacca tape is? I’m farkin frothin for some back in black. Also, give us a dart’

      ^not how we talk, just a fun exaggeration.

        Mate, I worked at Bunnings for seven years and I can tell you for a fact, there are plenty of people out there who actually talk like that. I’d put it on when I was working the trade yard so that tradies/handymen would (ironically) take me more seriously.

          Oh, I mean, I know. But I don’t want to misrepresent the whole country. But I too have caught public transport.

        We 100% talk that way. Stop trying to sanitise us for the rest of the world!
