This was always one of my favorites. Just the amount of confidence and nonchalance. Like he's been puking all over couches and himself his whole life and just showed up to get the night rolling.

quote:

The word has a long history, with the Oxford English Dictionary (OED) giving examples of its usage dating back to the 13th century. One of the early references is Wycliffe's Bible (1382), Leviticus xxii, 24: "Al beeste, that ... kitt and taken awey the ballokes is, ye shulen not offre to the Lord ..." (any beast that is cut and taken away the bollocks, you shall not offer to the Lord, i.e. castrated animals are not suitable as sacrifices).

The OED states (with abbreviations expanded): "Probably a derivative of Teutonic ball-, of which the Old English representative would be inferred as beall-u, -a, or -e". The Teutonic ball- in turn probably derives from the Proto-Indo-European base *bhel-, to inflate or swell. This base also forms the root of many other words, including "phallus".

quote:

"Talking bollocks" generally means talking nonsense or bullshit, for example: "Don't listen to him, he's talking bollocks", or "... talking absolute bollocks".

Comparable to cock-up, screw-up, balls-up, etc. Used with the indefinite article, it means a disaster, a mess or a failure. It is often used pejoratively, as in to have "made a bollocks out of it", and it is generally used throughout Britain and Ireland.

To bollocks something up means "to mess something up". It refers to a botched job: "Well, you bollocksed it up that time, Your Majesty!" or "Bollocksed up at work again, I fear. Millions down the drain".
To "drop a bollock"

To "drop a bollock" describes the malfunction of an operation, or messing something up, as in many sports, and in more polite business parlance, dropping the ball brings play to an unscheduled halt.

A "bollocking" usually denotes a robust verbal chastisement for something which one has done (or not done, as the case may be), for instance: "I didn't do my homework and got a right bollocking off Mr Smith",

"A kick in the bollocks" is used to describe a significant set-back or disappointment, e.g. "Freeze (or work) one's bollocks off"

"Bollock naked" is used in the singular form to emphasise being completely nude: "he was completely pissed and stark bollock naked"

"Bollocksed"

Exhausted: "I couldn't sleep at all last night, I'm completely bollocksed!"
Broken: "My foot pump is bollocksed."
An extreme state of inebriation or drug-induced stupor: "Last night I got completely bollocksed".[26]
Hungover (or equivalent): "I drank two bottles of gin last night, I'm completely bollocksed."
Made a mistake: "I tried to draw that landscape, but I bollocksed it up."


A usage with a positive (albeit still vulgar) sense is "the dog's bollocks".] An example of this usage is: "Before Tony Blair's speech, a chap near me growled: 'He thinks he's the dog's bollocks.' Well, he's entitled to. It was a commanding speech: a real dog's bollocks of an oration."[30]

Although this is a recent term (the Online Etymology Dictionary dates it to 1989[29][31]), its origins are obscure. Etymologist Eric Partridge and the Oxford English Dictionary believe the term comes from the now obsolete typographical sequence of a colon and a dash.[32] This typography, using a dash following a colon, was used to introduce a list. Thus, it is a very early example of an emoticon.[1]

The Oxford English Dictionary says the following mark (":— ") is entitled "the dog’s bollocks", defined as: "typogr. a colon followed by a dash, regarded as forming a shape resembling the male sexual organs." The usage is cited to the year 1949.[1][33]
