At first you heard a few idiots in the public being interviewed and saying it, but now i hear radio presenters, and even people on tv talking like that. Pisses me off big time!

Back to uk:america - nobody has mentioned pants.
It is only being lazy that causes these language things I think. Sometimes I wonder if it is just to try and be "different" going wrong.

And Pants, I think the whole pants thing is understood more these days

I am pretty sure damian could have the word markham in there to mean pussy if he so desired.... if he hasn't already of course.

EDIT: Oh fuck LOL number 4

It could have been used before, not often a new word gets coined in a TV show, but I think in this case it probably did.

And that number 4 is a classic
