    Absolutely and when you visit London be sure to ask where you can hire a Boris Spazzwanker

    Oh I don't know. I'm a Brit, and we use it in my circle ironically, for fun. It amuses us :smile: (Often the best way to reduce the offensiveness of language is to make a joke of it.) For info to Americans and other non-Brits, though it is generally considered an exceptionally offensive word here in the UK, and best avoided.

    99% of the time I agree with you on this, however for whatever reason, the C word and the N word are the only two words that I just CANNOT tolerate, even as a joke, even when it's meant to depower the hatefulness of the word. I'm not offended by others using them in that way, I just can't personally go with it.

    I like it when Mr Burns called U2 'wankers'. I happen to agree with hjim. I do like it when people from other countries use our swears.

    I can't stop giggling when I hear someone called 'Randy' on the telly. I know it's puerile, but why would a person be called that?

    Also, does anyone think that the word 'panties' sounds seedy?

    I am American, so I am the "we" in this situation.

    I actually don't know the answer to that. Slacks, maybe? Or possibly by the style. I'm sure a kind Brit will come along to help us!


    'Trousers' is the singular and the collective noun :bigsmile:

    Yes! Panties always sounds seedy to me!

    I feel like their isn't a good word for ladies undergarments. Knickers sounds somewhat childish maybe because it rhymes with snicker? Underwear sounds utilitarian, thongs sound...divisive, chonies sound silly.

    A word should be made.

    I know we speak the same language, but I can't understand a word you're saying. O_o
