which one is made up?

anyone from Great Britain?
dodgy, tosser, numpty, wanker, dicksplash, fuckletoes, pillock, cockwomble?
You're viewing a single thread.
They're all real for sure except dicksplash and fuckletoes, but I can't choose between them.
I can definitely see dicksplash being used as an insult down the pub.
Fuckletoes is in a weird dead zone. It's far too poncey for working class use, but far too crass for the toffs.
The rest I've heard used before.
It's fuckeltoes.
I was leaning towards fuckletoes also, never heard dicksplash although it wouldn't be a surprise, but really any of them would generally be appropriate. You're supposed to get a little creative from time to time.
My favourite one that not so many people have heard is "that's rare as rocking horse shit".
Dicksplash is not in common usage, but it's real
I really want fuckletoes to be real, though. like you're just minding your business and one of them comes sauntering along and oh shit, here comes old fuckletoes
The great thing about English is that you can just do that! In fact every word on the list started out that way. Of course there's situations where you shouldn't say fuckletoes out loud, like a children's birthday party, but it's perfectly appropriate bar slang, and of course in your head you're free to use it about that one kid as well.
The great thing about natural language, in fact.
it sounds like something I would call my cat when she tries to eat the corners of my vinyl sleeves again, but yes, in my mind it is now a thing
Same here! Never heard those two, but I'm sure they'll spread soon enough. Fuckletoes sounds great!
