rack off, hairy legs
An Australian informal phrase meaning go away or get lost — a dismissal.
Definitions
An Australian informal phrase meaning go away or get lost — a dismissal. 'Rack off' alone means to leave or go away (equivalent to 'piss off' but milder), and 'hairy legs' is an added intensifier that gives the phrase its comic, emphatic character. Used when telling someone to leave in an exasperated but not completely hostile way. The full phrase has a distinctly Australian flavor of informal bluntness with a touch of absurdism.
He kept hovering around the kitchen while she cooked until she finally told him to rack off, hairy legs.
