A term used by residents of Perth, Western Australia to describe the phenomenon, often experienced by Perthians abroad, of Perthians not only managing (however improbably) to come across fellow Perthians overseas, but also of them always finding that these co-urbanites are either a) their relatives, b) their acquaintances, or (at the very least) c) people with whom they share multiple mutual friends on Facebook. This oft-described experience abroad (of "being/getting Perth'd") is the result of Perth being an oversized village, of everyone there having a desire and tendency to piss off abroad whenever they get the chance, and of the two degrees of separation that somehow exists for the city's residents.
