Learn to speak Red Coat!

In an effort to expand our community's cultural diversity awareness, I propose we all take up another language - British English. Yes, I know, it's so foreign and makes absolutely no sense whatsoever but it is for the good of the clan!

My current favorite is "the dog's bollocks." If something bad happens, you say "oh, bollocks." But if you want to say something is GOOD, you say "that is the dog's bollocks!"

Yeah, we can't rely on Swim and Vin to constantly translate, we need to diversify people

And for the record, you guys are driving me nuts with the bollocks thing...it's BOH-lucks, not BULL-locks Do it right xD

Bullocks >=3

ohh vinn you need to say more of this to me on mic.

CHEEERIO. RESOURCESSS!!

bb. i <3 you

Haha bunny I <3 YOU TOO

BOOOOOOOOOOOOO

thats cute that were trying to be more diverse =] I <3 us!

Bloody HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Cock blocker" - someone who ruins an exciting moment for others. Sexual innuendo not necessary.

See: Italianboy_1Up

lmao =] hahahaa

lmao

Cock blocker isn't British, is it? xD

Oh, and do you guys use cottoning on..? I used it on Swim and he didn't get it (possibly because of a typo but haha)

For example, say you're blowing up their doors on Black Forest, and they see you and they come towards you...you can say "Oh my, I do believe they are cottoning on to my antics. Must dash!"

WTH COTTONING ON FTW
LOL

"must dash" ha ha ha...

lmao the must dash part is the best lmao

We'll be "must dashing for resources..." all the time now...

lol haha

Today we learned a new one!

"kiss my teeth" = "kiss my ass"

Which kinda makes no sense, since...I dunno....don't people normally kiss with their mouths, which include aforementioned teeth? That's like...I can't even....there aren't even any words. So I'll just put in:

RAINBOW RAVE MONKEY!

If one were to attempt to kiss your teeth, you might bite their lips off in anger. Therefore it might be as unpleasant as kissing one's ass. If given a choice, I'd rather keep my lips.

haha it's new to me as well xD I think it's one of those chav-things, like when people were saying bare all the time... as in "That's BARE buff bruv!" euch.

I haven't heard anything about bare or bears, except when recently studying the stock market they talk about bull and bear markets.

Haha Beto shared this link with me today...although I'm not sure all of them are brit-only. You guys don't suss things out? Or fancy a nice cup of tea?

Haha that reminds me of my buddy. He's a really sheltered kid and I remember in elementary he always used to say "fiddle sticks" XD, among other hilariously innocent words haha. I remember one time he said "Oh fiddles" lol, it was hilarious.
