31. Taking the piss is not pissed/drunk, it's being sarcastic :)

8 years ago | Likes 48 Dislikes 5

I think they accidentally put #31, and #32 on the same line. #32 is pissed=drunk

8 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

So many of these are wrong

8 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

They forgot to put a new line between 31. And 32. which was pissed/drunk, though sarcastic is better then 'screwing around' like it said :)

Tosser actually means wanker

Nah, when explaining it to foreigners, it's always "someone who throws something". That way you can get away with calling them tossers.

I don't think they got smeg from smegma, pretty sure it's just a made up word like goit

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 5

Goit is a word, it's very similar in meaning to git and they seem to use the two interchangeably in the show

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Nah, they made up goit too. Google it and the only results are red dwarf

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 1

Soo... what's the difference between a wanker and a tosser?

8 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

Toss is slang for wank which is slang for male masturbation. They ate the same thing just different in terms of how you use it.

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Same thing really. But wanker is a stronger term.

All done up like a dogs dinner = nicely dressed to go out (source: I am very British)

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

From a part of uk where they nicely present their canine friends food?

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

It is a weird turn of phrase and implies that you are OVERdressed. Dogs breakfast on the other hand means an unholy mess.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Dogs dinner or breakfast both mean a mess. Dogs bollocks on the other hand means great. I'm from the UK too.

Bloody does not mean Damn....

8 years ago | Likes 14 Dislikes 1

It does in American contexts. E.g. "you bloody idiot" = "you damn moron".

But this is a guide to British slang.

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

For Americans. Jesus wept...

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Then they are going to get themselves into trouble using this. I would go round calling people a wanker thinking it means idiot.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

But you can't use it on it's own, therefore, not the same. The equivalent would be "fucking" I suppose

8 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

You forgot "Mardy" meaning being in a mood. Plus always remember, positive statements like "Brilliant" and "Great" often mean the opposite.

8 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

that's just sarcasm, I don't think we can entirely claim that.

Ponce is more Stralian than Brit. It used to be a negative word for gay.

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Indeed. A ponce is not a poser, a ponce is someone who takes but never gives back. Money, cigarettes, etc.

8 years ago | Likes 10 Dislikes 1

Yeah I'm English and ponce means poser to me.

I've never heard it used in the poser sense, only the scav sense.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I only recently heard it in the scav sense, the other way i think is more an old thing and plus actually mostly means like camp too

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Maybe it did. The only homosexual words relating to that I remember early on were poof/poofter though. Mincing came later.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I'm agreed with the other chap. Ponce has always meant poser as far as I know. I've never heard your version before. Might just be local

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

To your area. The version we use I've heard often in and around the country, and on telly many times.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

That's a curiosity. I assume you use scav/scavenger instead of ponce for that meaning, then? And our 'nonce' definition is the same?

I'd call someone, such as you described, as a leech; a person that feeds off've others.

Its actually an old term for a new born. The phrase would be to "wet the chavvies head". Aka, to have a beer and celebrate the new life.

"Council House, Abusive and Violent" I believe is where the term comes from.
