Expressive Phrases
I'm a "shit" person myself - use it lots.
Still use Bugger it, Bloody 'ell (American Neighbour now uses that one). Have told AT&T and MCI Worldcom to **** Off before now, but my Mum's "I'll wash your mouth out with soap" threats seem to have worked in later years, and I don't feel comfortable using that one. Have to be really mad to say it! Usually prefer to say 'Sod You' or the one that I particularly like using over here - Piss Off - seems to go over their heads somehow :D |

Also calling a yank a wanker followed by the five knuckle shuffle hand sign usually baffles them really good and proper and have no idea what you are doing;) |

Rather surprised that following WW2 it didn't become - The Yanks -- Over sexed, Over paid, and Over here, - WHAT YANKERS Ouch :eek: |
