A New Word
I taught a Chinese friend a new word:
which was 'bollocks,' surprisingly he didn't
know what that meant and threatened to
look up the meaning of it on Google.
I told him not to worry - we'll think of
something else but he had other ideas;
when he got home that evening, he decided
to try out the new word on his wife.
She greeted him by asking how his day
had been - to which he replied: 'bollocks!'
She was surprised and asked him, 'Pardon?',
This was ignored and asked other questions.
'Did you go to supermarket - he said: 'bollocks.'
'I'll slap you if you say once more,' 'bollocks.'
