When dealing with inatimate objects it is usually "Bitch!" and when dealing with no brained people its almost always "Idjet" or Mental Pygmy......

Mingin', erse/arse, erswipe/arsewipe, eedjit, ersehole/arsehole, manky, Jambo, brew, luffly, gorge, tart, trollop, fiddle, twiddle, diddle, cow, gett, poser, plonk, gobsmacked.

Our language is so wonderfully rich and varied.. I do love it so... the above are merely a few examples of oft overused but much luffed words wich roll offa the Fran tongue.. I have more, but they are less "common"..

H8? one above all others..the dreaded "c" word which I have never used in me life..and will never... but also the word "ass" to describe me arse or describe an arsehole..... and phrases??? "Bloody northern monkeys" isnt very nice Max now is it, u southern gett??:tong:;)

Spendy, Omnivorous, Omniscient, Antidisestablishmentarianism, Sentient, Thesaurus (why is there no synonym for thesaurus?), Grok, Suffonsified, Embololalia...

There are many others. The english language is a fun and growing language.

Mine is "boink". I don't know why, it's just a fun word. It's fun to say; like muckluck, spock, etc...
