DILF looking for a sparkle of inspiration

I'm learning lots of Brit speak from MFP friends,Particularly as it pertains to food.
I now know what a Wotsit is.
And DILF is the international language.
and may I share some more Brit terms with you, anybody who refers to themselves as a "DILF" is likely to be a "Bell-End"
Bell-End...ah yes....this is a very affectionate term over here in England and it means someone who, whilst sat in church, is sat slightly closer to the church bell than the rest of the congregation....how kind of you my good Sir!!!!
My mind went straight to the gutter.I thought I had a better understanding of Brit speak.After all,I do watch reruns of coupling and the vicar of dibley.( heavy sarcasm.I know there is more to the British then sitcoms that tell wildly funny dirty jokes).
Hmmm...no I'm not sure if you are being sarcastic about my sarcastic comment haha...ooooh so confused... well a bell end is actually 'white trash' talk for an unskilled, uncultured idiot....but as I am quite the opposite this term is often used by the 'bell-end' to signify jealousy. this is a British idiosyncrasy...to call someone a name that is derogatory and untrue because the person saying it is themselves that....I've never quite understood it to be honest but hey....jealousy is a horrible thing..
But i digress...Vicar of Dibley is one of the greatest shows ever made over here...Dawn French is a national icon and the funniest female comedian we have....I am amazed the humour travels as it is very very typically British and having lived in similar villages...it is mostly true haha!!!!
Dawn French is marvellous - and has the most amazing hair. I never noticed her weight, I was always fascinated with the sheet of straight shiny hair that swished this way and that, whenever she moved... where is the 'envious' emoticon when you need one?
Anyway, talking of 'lost in translation' differences, I have some American friends here who use the term 'bonked' to describe the tiredness and exhaustion they feel after a hard workout. I haven't yet plucked up the courage to provide them with the English definition of this charming word... :blushing:
Crazy Bonking American here. For the record? I know what "bonking" means on the other side of the pond. I find it adorably comical that the same simple word can have such wildly contrasting definitions, depending on where you live. I giggle a little over this every time a friend says something like, "My coach is working me so hard that I bonked in the pool last night." Or I read a workout article titled, "AVOID THE BONK". *giggle giggle smirk smirk* How can you not find that funny?
Blushing so much now, Joe, as it was you I was thinking of when I referred to 'bonking'... :blushing:
We Brits can be so uncouth - yet so insufferably delicate over things sometimes.. but yes, too funny. I will never see that word and not think of you, Joe, my American double-agent provocateur... :bigsmile:0 -
Oh bullocks, I won't get my knickers in a bunch....That's all the English I know. :drinker:0

We say, "knickers in a twist"... I think the Americans say "panties in a bunch".... both are v.v.v funny. :bigsmile:0 -
