Oh dear, I've certainly heard that.  Although one difference is that in
Australia "ass" used to mean donkey, and it doesn't in America.  And
because of American influence, "ass" frequently doesn't mean donkey here
either now.

Bob, I hope you're aware that Glenn's tongue is firmly in his cheek when
he says he assumes 80% of us think he's witty and charming.

Bob

I don't claim to be an expert in Australia's wonderfully creative humour

or slang expressions, but I've not heard that interpretation of
'assume', 
so it must be indigenous to your side of the Pacific. <snip>
