But then I heard "I can't be buggered." Which, in it's context, I though meant "Can't be bothered."
Then someone posted "buggery" in the favorite cuss word thread and got me confused again.
I've also heard "I'm going to step out and smoke a fag." Is fag a slang word for cigarette or was he going to shoot a homosexual?
Cant be buggered. Cant be arsed. Cant be fucked. All means Cant be bothered.
Fag is a ciggie.
In America to be "pissed" means tobe angry/annoyed. In England to be pissed means to be drunk! BUT piss also means wee wee in England and it's a slightly rude word that you wouldnt want your kids to say BUT in America everybody says it like its not rude at all??!!
