Seppo is short for septic tank (think outhouse).
septic tank is rhyming slang for yank
Yank, from an Aussie context, is anyone from USA
The term "Yank" by itself usually offends citizens from 49 of the 50 states, but that only seems to further entrench its use within the Australian lingo.
So there you have it, or not. As the case may be.
