i'm convinced that rhyming slang is just 19th century coal mine brainrot. you cannot change my mind

England has a surfeit of terms for obnoxious people.

• Jobsworth (obstructive clerk or bureaucrat)
• God-botherer (religious fanatic)
• Cockwomble
• Minging cockwomble
• Tremulous bollock-for-lobsters cockwomble
• Sir Æthelbert Plonker Cockwomble of the Drubbing-over-Head Cockwombles

I may have made those last two up.

Chuffed for me is more to do with being pleased with something you have accomplished.

Probably not technically slang, and maybe not even technically British, but I hate the all variations of "whinge". I know it's a real word, but it always feels like someone misspelling "whine". I was well into adulthood when I finally learned that though, so those feelings are just so ingrained in me at this point.

Thanks for listening to me whine.

Innit

War-Chest-Hair Sauce ... Werk-hamster-shire Sauce ... Wash-your-sister Sauce ... What's-this-here Sauce ... Wister-Sheer Sauce ... ... ...

Yeah. Fucking nailed it!

"Gutted" gets every single time, but for the most unfunny and fucked up reason.

I was at a bar and a guy was describing how his pet got hit by a car and he found it kind of split down the belly, then he said "I was gutted", describing his reaction. But his pet was also quite literally gutted. I didn't laugh or anything but it was just such a dark thing to say it was almost funny.

U wot m8?

These:

When it's raining, and someone inevitably tells me it's raining, I like to say 'perfect weather for ducks, innit'

I also like 'Kuch' which is Welsh slang for 'cuddle'

I like rhyming slang. Mostly for torturing my fellow Americans. I also enjoy clunge, jobbie, and being "sick to bastard death" about things.

The Australians have my heartstrings though, when it comes to inventive slang. They're not here to fuck spiders, tell you that much for free.

Bloody, but just because when I had a period I would say things like "I'm on my bloody period!"

Innit

Is calling someone Petal a slang or a regionalism? I, 30-something male, love doing that, petal.

Most hated is “boffin” for scientist—“boff” is American slang for sex, so it sounds like calling them “fuckers” (which generally doesn’t seem to be the intended connotation).

My most hated is definitely how some (all?) Brits say "Leftenant" instead of "Lieutenant".

Most beloved is a bit harder... "Blimey" is a nice one though.

There’s too many people mixing England and Great Britain up in here.

"Wanker" is what I remember most of the time, ya f'in wanker lol

A fucking depraved dirty sex act, you'd feel shame even googling

Only if you're doing it right!

I use "proper" a lot, so that one is inevitably favourite, unless it's not an exclusive UK slang

British slang really depends on your region just because there are so many accents. Overall though, I'm quite a fan of plonker, pillock, (all)reet, mooch, and bog (as in shitter).

Cock Womble

cockwomble, wankstain, pillock, cretin, prick, jobsworth, nutjob, absolute.. (insert anything, e.g. biscuit, sausage). oh slang not insults? i think cheers is good it's not too indulgent like thank you very much but it's also a way to give some appreciation

Fucking knackered! It means very tired, exhausted. But those terms are sterlized of feeling, of life.

Are you sure that anima you ascribe to "knackered" isn't coming from the adjective? "Fucking exhausted!" sounds, to my ear, just a full of feeling. Whereas, "I'm knackered" sounds just as lifeless as "I'm exhausted." I wonder if you're mis-attributing the vigor from "fucking," which is, indeed, a potent word.
