- leather cheerio60%
A colourfully vulgar slang term for the anus, born from the visual similarity between a puckered ring and a cheerio (the small cocktail sausage popular at kiwi and Aussie parties). The 'leather' component adds a texture-based layer that makes the image even more vivid — and the combination lands somewhere between gross-out humour and genius folk poetry. Classic antipodean slang: simultaneously crude, inventive, and oddly cheerful.
