Originally a word for someone who is a drunkard, over-fond of ale, of tossing the pot of ale back.
Earliest example of this known is in 16th century Elizabethan English,
Shakespeare's play "Twelfth Night", has the word in the closing part of the play, in Feste's song.
Nice to see it's still used, even if the meaning could be slightly different.
"But when I came unto my beds,
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain,
With toss-pots still had drunken heads,
For the rain it raineth every day."
That Kevin is an effin tosspot, pissed out of his head again.

With reference to "Bastard" this word is used as an insult. with the meaning of the pot that is used when donaters of sperm use to capture the "donation" hence the off spring being a bastard as they are not informed of who the donater is.

1. The wanking equivalent to a swear-box/jar.
If one finds themself jerkin' the gherkin a little too often, and they wish to solve this problem, then a tosspot system can be used to combat the issue. Essentially, when the serial tosser tosses themselves off, they have to toss one pound sterling into their tosspot. This should act as a disincentive to wanking, thus solving the problem.
For added fun, a competition can be initiated among two friends. A set period of time is designated- two weeks say, whereby both gents utilise the tosspot system. At the end of these two weeks, the tosspots are swapped. The loser is the chump who hands over the tosspot with the most money. This game requires the utmost honesty to avoid brawls.
Kid A: "Why doesn't Willy come out anymore?"
Kid B: "He can't afford to... all of his money ends up in his tosspot- stupid cunt."
