some limey needs to come in here and compare this to the use of 'bollocks' and 'the dog's bollocks' [/ QUOTE ] You called, Patrick? It's pretty easy: - "Bollocks" is a term for something that's bad, most commonly used either as an adjective. - "Dog's bollocks" is a term for something that's excellent. (Apparently the term "the nuts" in poker comes from "the mutt's nuts", another variation of dog's bollocks). |

Who from Long Island doesn't know what "busting balls" means? No one I've ever met.

Hmmm... some limey needs to come in here and compare this to the use of 'bollocks' and 'the dog's bollocks' or whatever the [censored] they say over there. By the way, did I use the word 'limey' right? Cheers! [/ QUOTE ] 'Bollocks' - General expletive, can be used in reasonably civilised company, used on TV where other stronger words would be bleeped. More commonly used in the following phrases: 'You're talking bollocks' i.e. I believe that what you are saying may contain certain factual inaccuracies 'This is bollocks' - i.e. I am filling in my income tax return and have no clue what any of this means. I am watching Star Wars Episode 1. 'The dog's bollocks' perhaps perversely, is used to describe that which is the most excellent of its kind (May also be referred to as the 'Mutt's nuts') : I just bought a new 50" plasma and it's the dog's bollocks To clarify a little more - 'This is bollocks' - it's rubbish, 'This is THE bollocks' - it's excellent. And, yes, your use of 'limey' was correct - if a little 1950's, no more offensive that calling a resident of the US a Yank. Toodle Pip! Gn'T |
