I'm all for America in most cases, but the Brits have way cooler slang than we do.
Agreed, I love British slang, which is one of the many reasons why I enjoy reading the Sun....they take every possible opportunity to use Cockney Rhyming Slang and other slang forms whenever possible, making their articles a real treat to read.
FReepers interested in learning more about British Slang in it's various forms might like to start out at these sites:
Dictionary of English slang and colloquialisms of the UK
Be advised that slang, by it's nature, will include a large number of bawdy and rude words not appropriate for polite conversation and so care and caution is urged :-)
Thanks. I'll check out those links.
