I can see what this is, but it's not taking my answer, so I've got something wrong here

Things are spelled the way you'd expect, but the second word is seven letters long.

Too many possible variations. Don't "toss"

[2]It is assuming some are already there.

There is a verb illustrated in the clue that was not uttered by Paul Hogan, nor was it the official travel bureau slogan.
No odd Aussie spellings necessary.

Multiple possible words for multiple pictures/actions, and you need to get them all right.
Haven't gotten it yet.

Edit: definitely not one of my favorite puzzles. waaay to many possibilities and didnt go with the more popular ones.

This stinks. Too many permutations to choose...none of them work for me.

[16] I agree - finally got it.
[15] No.
This solve is just six words long.

what she's doing, in addition to, then the obvious 4 words.

Once again - depends on your locale's "common" phraseology for the event

[16] is right ... although I finally got the right permutation

I would like to throw you a clue but this time I don't believe in salting things up since this one is so easy.

Sadly, that was just irritating. "Some"? "Several"? "A"? "More"? Simply too many options.

thank you [7] I was using a different word :(

To find the exact phraseology, look up the obvious phrase on Wikipedia, and find the reference to a comic strip that used this phrase.
I sprinkle this much salt because, like so many of you, I thought this puzzle had way too many permutations and possible combinations, while having a ridiculously simple and obvious solution.
Sorry to sound so critical, riseoverrun, but I simply feel the difficulty should come from solving the puzzle, and not from solving the author's particular turn of phrase.

Thanks [27] and wikipedia!

wow.
i really didn't consider that there could be so many versions of the answer. it seems reasonable now but at the time I was making the puzzle only one version rang in my mind. i didn't even realize the source until truman mentioned dumb and dumber (what a true milestone in cinematography).
anyway here is some salt...
she's not tossing, lobbing, pitching, flinging, flicking, chucking, flipping or hurling.
also note that she has already been successful in hitting her target while choosing the proper adjective to describe her ammunition.

[29] Took me a couple of tries to get it, but in hindsight the answer you provided was the most obvious and popularly used one.

the answer is the way I've always heard the phrase, I liked this puzzle.

I think the last word should be spelled differently, but finally got it

I had to beg people for the correct answer, while all of the time knowing it.
Lousey puzzle.

Well... many thanks for that one. The funny thing is, this is not something that an Australian would ever say, except with irony. For one thing, we use a completely different word for that sea beastie. But I really appreciate this. Well done, and heaps of thanks for the dedication.
