"your rents are sick"  apparently translates to "you have cool parents"

it's what the kids are sayin .. man

That's totally radical, Bodie.

I'm surprised that you didn't post some new Cockney slang. :nerdy:
I2 has a smiley for everything. Even a hamster wheel. :hamsterwheel:

There is only one truth and it is that people do have penises of different sizes and one of them is the longest.

Can't think of any new cockney slang but I know a scouser who says 'it's the mackers' if he refers to something phony or fake.  Mackers is a play on the word macaroni which rhymes with phony.  Of course, being a scouser he says it like 'machers' with a big emphasis on 'ch' as if he has a load of phlegm in his mouth. 

Ooooh phlegm is a good word, kind of rolls off the tongue  :zoinks:
blah blah blah

If Adam was here, we'd all mock the Scousers together. :thumbup: :P

I'm chuffed to hear the latest slang from the British Isles. :nerdy:

Here in the UK, 'munted' means something entirely different.

Meaning 'to be extremely intoxicated by some (almost certainly illegal) substannce'

'hammered'-same meaning.

Rat arsed-usually meaning extremely drunk, pissed as a fart, but can be applied to other substances, but most often to alcohol intoxication, very, very drunk.

'buggered' (applied to object, as in 'its buggered, don't bother trying to use/start it')

Beyond the pale. Way, way beyond the pale.

I've heard that the hedgehog can never be buggered at all. :M
