http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bollocks

Bollocks is a word of Anglo-Saxon origin, meaning "testicles". The word is often used figuratively in English, as a noun to mean "nonsense", an expletive following a minor accident or misfortune, or an adjective to mean "poor quality" or "useless". Similarly, the common phrases "Bollocks to this!" or "That's a load of old bollocks " generally indicate contempt for a certain task, subject or opinion. Conversely, the word also figures in idiomatic phrases such as "the dog's bollocks", "top bollock(s)", or more simply "the bollocks" (as opposed to just "bollocks"), which will refer to something which is admired, approved of or well-respected.

As a Brit I can confirm this is true.  :smile:


It just sounded like 'bull...' because of his Irish accent, Lester.

Trevor is far, far kinder and more forgiving than I am.  I figure if posters want to act like trolls, annoy Andrew and get themselves banned from this site, have at ye!

Today, I sang the Great Mighty Poo song (from Conker's Bad Fur Day) with some friends and got told that I have a very operatic voice.

For those who don't know the song, here it is:
