BOHOF

Acronym standing for Back Of Hand On Forehead. Usually applied to those people, male or female, who are drama queens and who make major obstacles out of minor difficulties. It goes back to the old silent movie dramas where, when the villain had the heroine in his evil clutches, she'd go all weak at the knees and the back of her hand would go to her forehead. The epitome of overdramatic exaggeration.

Malcolm's having a BOHOF moment.
Why? Did he forget to put sugar in his coffee?

UFHC

UFHC - Unfit For Human Consumption. The term was originally applied for meat or other foodstuffs destined for the pet food industry. Its use has now been expanded so that it is applied to persons (male or female) who are truly repulsive and whose presence makes your skin crawl.

Hey, that asshole Georgie is hittin' on Julie again!
Oh man! That guy is really creepy! Totally UFHC

Nemophilia

Nemophilia is the love of spending time in forests or woodland; woodland survival training, as practised by the armed forces could, therefore, be considered the equivalent of sex.

Malcolm is such a wanker he thought nemophilia was having sex with a cartoon fish.

Sand Rat

British Army slang in use before the Second World War, a sand rat is a whore, hooker or prostitute in a seaside town. They became known as sand rats because, like rats, they only came out after dark and would take their clients down to the beach for sex on the sand.

A British squaddie going on leave might say to his mates, "Right, I've got me 'water wings and calamine' and I'm off to play with the sand rats."
Note Water wings and calamine referred to condoms and barrier cream issued to soldiers to try to reduce the risk of them contracting STD.

Grizzling

Grizzling is a particularly repulsive form of crying; usually done by children but sometimes by adults particularly molly piss men. It's a thoroughly unpleasant whinging, whining, bout of self-pity accompanied by oceans of tears, a swollen face and large dribbles of snot. The person doing the grizzling expects sympathy and hugs but should be kept beyond arms reach with a forked vermin stick and consigned to a distant planet at the earliest opportunity.

Malcolm's grizzling again!
Thank fuck I'm off to the States this afternoon!

Toe Rag

Although usually used as a description of an unpleasant, obnoxious twit or the foot wrappings used in place of socks, it is also used to described dried, salted cod because of its strong unpleasant smell. By extension it was also used to describe other things with a strong unpleasant fishy smell.

Dave, I heard you dumped Millie, I thought you were going to give her one.
Nah! I got her clouts off and her min smelled like a load of old toe rag so I left it.
