    You have to pronounce it like "blowee-ale" in a drunk voice and spit a bit when you say it as well.
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    I like my pronunciation of the term thick and sloppy. Drunk and medieval. Like a drunken Fagin in Oliver twist.

    I've always been a fan of British wit and humor.

    The topper for me has to be "Dog's Bollocks."

    Meaning...something that is really good, given that dogs are always licking their bollocks...they must be good, right?

    Ex: He thinks he's the dog's bollocks.

    In fact, if I could restart my account, I think my username would be Dog's Bollocks.

    Yeah, I've wondered about "bollocks". When the Buzzcocks call PJ "the bullocks", does that mean they're testicles??

    I like to pronounce it like this...

    "fucking hell"

    but I'm just coarse

    once, I started to say "holy shit" and "bloddy hell" at the same time and it came out "holy hell." It stuck, although a good "bloody 'ell!" makes me laugh!

    My Boss's husband is from the UK, he says it all the time.. Everything sounds so funny to me in the English accent.. Like when he said he should "Put a pole on prestyn and mop the floor with him" I about died. It sounded so funny with his accent.

    I was biking across ireland and I had stopped at a post office to mail some post cards, and there was a guy painting the fence out front, and he strikes up some small talk and I go "well I'm going to [x town] today" and he looks at my bike and goes "on a bike? bloody hell!" hahahaha I always loved that reaction.
