Shorter Oxford Dictionary: aggro (also: agro) abbrev. of AGGRAVATION or AGGRESSION. W Australii czesto spotkalem sie z tym okresleniem na ludzi agresywnych, rzadko kiedy w znaczeniu \'aggravation\'. W tym kontekscie, przynajemniej dla mnie, jest to zdecydowanie \'agresja\', moze wrogosc, czy napastliwosc.
