What the Hell does "Snogging" mean?

And of course what you Americans call a bicycle, over here we call a spazzwanker.
Absolutely and when you visit London be sure to ask where you can hire a Boris Spazzwanker

In the UK, fanny is slang for vagina. Be wary!!
I was waiting on someone saying that!!
And where you're from, every c**t uses the c word with reckless abandon!
In my experience the C word is considered very offensive in the UK, a colleague once used it in an outburst and there was an obvious gasp from everyone is earshot. Myself and people I know don't use it, in less someone is really really really really angry/outraged/fuming!
Agreed it's a horrible word and shouldn't really be used in any circumstances!!
Oh I don't know. I'm a Brit, and we use it in my circle ironically, for fun. It amuses us(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.0 -
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?0 -

And pants are underwear.
lol seriously?
So what do you call what we call pants... do you refer to them by the style (jeans, khakis, etc)? What if you have a collection of different styles, how do you refer to the group (ie "Can you put these pants in the washer")?
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:0 -

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.0 -
I know we speak the same language, but I can't understand a word you're saying. O_o0
