Some chap I knew from Plymouth used that, not sure if it's also common down there

Maybe they were just describing their adventures with inflatable dolls.

Because the word fuck folds into many grammatical categories. As a transital verb for instance, "John fucked Shirley". As an intransitive verb; "Shirley fucks". It's meaning is not always sexual, it can be used as an adjective such as; John's doing all the fucking work. As part of an adverb; "Shirley talks too fucking much", as an adverb enhancing an adjective; Shirley is fucking beautiful. As a noun; "I don't give a fuck". As part of a word: "abso-fucking-lutely" or "in-fucking-credible". Or as almost every word in a sentence: "fuck the fucking fuckers!".

Where as wanker doesn't have the same range.

That's why fuck gets more airtime.

Possibly, but your advert on usenet asking for men to let you fuck them up the arse would be understood by people from the UK or the US.

yeh, i'd like to put that to the test. try saying it to a policeman and let us know how you get on. :thumbsup

You'll get on just fine :)

no such word as "skinted"

skint is just skint, it's not a verb (ie - broke - no money)

I'm from Plymouth originally and can confirm that us Janners would NEVER use that saying...

[confuse mode] however we'd call you anything to wind you up if you were some thick Grecian cunt from Exeter [/confuse mode]


I like the "you winding me up?" expression us Brits use. :)

Trust me, plenty of people say skinted, in the context I gave :thumbsup

you winding me up, mate? :pimp

No such word as skint, either. At least according to the dictionary.

So being that it's total slang I would think the door's pretty much wide open to using it any way anyone wishes, no?

That chick is "skintalicious" (hot, but broke) ha

its not a word if its not in the dictionary ????????

Fuck it, that last round skinted me..

thats allowable nope?

Did you find that out after your advert on Usenet seeking men to let you fuck them up the arse didn't get the response you wanted?

Bumder.

Not in the official sense, no. I think that's why the term "slang" was invented. For all the non-words flying about out there.

"Whatchamacallit" isn't a word either, but a shit-ton of people have said it over the centuries.

Get on board the slang train.

lol im driving the slang train matey boy

i live in a country where our entire ling is slang

australia = slangdomville

Skinted gets used in Essex

I was watching the movie "The Constant Gardener" last night, good movie by the way, and in the first 5 minutes or so I heard Ralph Fiennes say Ah Sandy, you've caught me skiving

and I actually knew what he meant thanks to this thread.

absolutely not, you'd sound like a daft twat if you said that in England. (sorry)

Christ on the bloody cross, now she's gone and thrown another term at me.... clonking.

So had another X-ray for the knee i fell on and just badly bruised and the clonking is the fluid swelling

???


You Brits and Aussies have me wambeezled I tell you.

Sorry... I ain't got a Scoobie :(

you had me confused there for a bit, you chose a bad example. Clonking is a banging sound - e.g. my exhaust pipe is clonking.
But dont worry, your example wasnt too Pete Tong! :D
