The Top 50 Most Beautiful British Insults

Or, when referring to America, Dollarlolly. But I havent actually heard that one for eons!Here are a couple more for you to research:
grockle
emmet

One of the, er, lower classes uses it in the Inspector Lynley mysteries.

I'm not a grockle. I'm one of those meek individuals who says "may I have a minute of your time, please?", Mr. English In Hong Kong. :)
 
There is a certain amount of wit associated with some Brit slang. I wonder if you remember the the term 'Bennies' used of the Falkland islanders by the Brit Pongos? Named after a mentally challenged youth in one of the soaps. The CO instructed the men not to use the term and that anyone heard referring to the islanders as Bennies would be severely punished.
Some time later, passing a group of soldiers the CO heard them refer to an islander as a 'still'. He asked, 'why do you call the Falkland Islanders 'stills'?' the answer was obvious. 'Because they are still Bennies even though we cannot say so.'

Low come back!!

None of which are as uniquely eloquent as "Fuck you" and its varients. Fuck you bitch. Fuck you asshole. Fuck you motherfucker, Fuck you and your mother too. etc, etc.
 
All toms meanings, in reference to his slang listings are inaccurate.
He is clearly not a true Brit!!

From the top, wanker, a person who wanks.
Wanking=masturbating.
Tom got hold of a Japanese magazine article trying to explain the inexplicable.
To be is to understand.

However, after shagging pippa Middleton yesterday I tell you two facts.
She is as fit as fuck and the staff at Madame tousauds are a sack of miserable twats.

That's as may be but I'm certainly not an uphill gardener like you or a minger. Oh and I'm not French either. You know the funny thing Aaron is that I don't actually dislike you, I think you are as mad as a box of frogs but you do have some musical talent.
