One thing I remember from languagelog is that almost all English speakers have a form of "yeah no" and they all think they invented it.

Might be Scottish.

Not only did Australians invent it, we also invented Pavlova, Sam Neill, etc.

This is like when Australians tell me they invented drinking coffee.

(Conversely, I've seen Australians who dislike Halloween because they think it's an American invention, but it's also Scottish.)

Yes we also invented drinking coffee.
