Non-American (+ local) Slang

[diebitter]

someone asked for some British slang in another thread, and I think this could be broadened to slang from anywhere that's not US-National (ie to include localised slang in the US, and anywhere else globally)

to start the ball rolling, some UK ones...

Drunk - mullered, rat-arsed, pissed as a fart
Ugly woman - Swamp Donkey, minger, boiler
Fat ugly woman - bloater, sperm whale

I also include this link to a page I did waaaaay back for euphemisms for the act of love here


so, what are yours?

British jargon sucks.

Olivia - "tart in question"

breasts - (I'm sticking only to ones that I don't think are international here) - norks, lils, lungs, pink-nosed puppies, baps (also extended if price included, eg 'tupenny baps' are little ones, 'half-a-shilling baps' are big ones), Charlies

Hard nipples - Bruce Lees (hard nip), chapel hat pegs, Radio Luxemburg

When I lived in Engand, I learned very quickly that the suspenders I used to wear in Canada were not the same as what suspenders are over there.

Mass - Soda/Coke = tonic
