    I would add pictures, but it seems the counts at Google have now made it hard/ impossible to steal picture urls using your mobile on its image search.

    In the UK the boot is the storage space at the back of your car. In the US it is known as the trunk. In the UK trunks belong on elephants or worn around your waist when swimming. In the US a boot is a boot, it goes on your foot.

    If somethings funny, we say 'what a pisser.'

    Pissed as a maggot is a very old term out here.
    I dunno man, you all sound alike we hear what a pisser alot here, also piss off is more across the pond but we have 'go piss up a rope'
