    Wanker became of wide use in the USA only in recent years. "Wanking" usually means something that I'm not about to say.

    Aren't (SPOILER)wanker and tosser synonymous? Ya'll brits have a lot of words that mean things that are a lot ruder in the USA. Anyway, I figured out where bugger it got in my head from..blame Terry Pratchett and the Hedgehog Song. No, I'm not posting any of it here, look it up yourself. Here's an interesting Bob's your uncle. for definitions of some of the less offensive terms..Roflmao @ hooters=Bristols.

    By the way, Do british people still knock people up of a morning?..Try that here and you're likely to get slapped if it isn't appreciated! I'm not a morning person, and I wouldn't want to get knocked up either way!

    use bam alot. I think (don't quote me on this) that only Scottish people would understand what I'm talking about. Most people think I mean the guy from Jackass!
    its sad.. i think of emeril lagasse when someone says BAM! you know, the chef who yells BAM! as he's tossin salt on somethin.

    id be so screwed if i ended up in britain.. NO CLUE what you guys are talkin about. but i suppose its the same in reverse too. i cant even think of anything i say that would be strange to others.

    who says "blinkers" or "directionals" when referring to your car's turn signals? lol.. thats all i can think up.

    I don't know where you get your 'English slang', but these days if you talk about "knocking someone up", it means either having sex with them, or getting them pregnant. [q=soulICE]who says "blinkers" or "directionals" when referring to your car's turn signals? lol.. thats all i can think up.[/q]Indicators?

    When my mom was in England during the late sixties, her neighbor's teenage son offered to "Knock her up" in the mornings..He meant knocking on the door or window of her cottage to wake her...Apparently that's all it meant at that time!

    Lol, I can use British terminology EXCEPT for 'chips'. Chips, dammit...are French Fries. And crisps, dammit...are chips. LOL. I can never ever do crisps. And why do people like saying "manky"?!?! I said it once, and then this boy came up to me and said: "WOW! You're the first person I've seen in Malaysia who uses the word manky! That's so cool! Manky manky manky manky!".

    Is it spelt 'manky', lol?!
    This subliminal message could be meant for YOU. But it's probably not. Move along ;D

    I used to say manky all the time, then it changed to mank and now I say skank, it will probably change in the future, and I say it because it's a cool word.

    EDIT: I say proper chuffed all the time, I've said it like 30 times today, besause AS results came out.

    I live in Wisconsin (Northern U.S.), but I moved up here from Georgia (Southern U.S.). I was born in Illinois (Northern U.S.) and spent a year of my childhood in Alabama (Southern U.S.), plus a year in Iraq (Asscrack of the world). So being from here and there and all over, plus the military aspect, gives me a rather wide vocabulary.

    Everybody here makes fun of me for the way I talk...I say things like "over/out yonder", as mentioned before, but also, I say "coke" to categorize nearly all carbonated soft drinks, I say "might could/should", and "hold up" to mean wait a minute, and "right quick" to mean fast. As in, "Hold up, I'm gonna go run grab a coke right quick."

    Plus, I have a slight Southern accent still (Thank the Lord for that, it's much better'n having a yankee accent), so it confuses people.

    EDIT: Hehehe. DMKA posted right after me, and his post was edited. Wonder what that was about . Wish I could have at least seen it first.

    Was that really necessary? To try to insult people and say you're somehow better? God.

    Plus this thread has been dead for well over a month. -->*snip*

    I say 'sorry', 'about', and 'mum' like a Canadian... (I'm from California)

    I also occasionally use words like 'buscuit', 'lift', and 'torch' to describe their respective american words (in this case, 'cookie', 'elevator', and 'flashlight').

    I also say 'over yonder', 'bugger', 'vehicle' (when describing any automobile... I don't say 'car'), 'blast' (pronounced 'blahst'), 'grand', and even 'oy' when exasperated... 'crudmuffins', 'bullpuckey', and 'balderdash' are used also.

    A man goes swimming at a fairly popular beach. He's out fairly deep when BAM! A shark bites one of his legs off. He manages to stay calm, and remembers to wave his arm in the air to attract the attention of the Life Saver. The life saver sees him, and being friendly, waves back. BAM! The shark takes another leg. The swimer starts waving faster, and again, the life saver simply waves back. BAM! The shark takes an arm. The swimmer is now waving like a madman, and, getting slightly annoyed, the life saver waves back again. BAM! The shark takes the swimmer's last limb, and only now does the life saver realise what is happening. He quickly swims out, throws the swimmer on his back, and makes it back to the shore.

    "Whew, I'm buggered!" Says the life saver.

    "Yeah, sorry about that. It was the only way I could hold on."
