Simon Cowell is a prick.

On the upside, I've had compliments from every american woman I know saying they think british accents are hot.

Ditto.

Why'd you change your username, fck man that's irritating as hell.

My god. It's 'The Dog's Bollocks' if we REALLY have to get down to it.

Really!:|

Agreed. The Dogs Bollocks wins...

I wonder where it originated. Are dogs' testicals really that great?!

Ah ha!:

However something which is the bollocks is great. This is short for the dog's bollocks which is sometimes paraphrased to 'the pup's parts', or 'the mutt's nuts', and so on. Why canine testicles should be so wonderful is a moot point. There is a legend that in the 1950s construction kits like Meccano would be sold in boxes of various sizes. The list of contents which came with the standard size box would be headed 'Box, Standard' (which elided into 'bog standard' when spoken) and the larger box was the 'Box, Deluxe' which was spoonerised into the 'dog's bollocks'. This is such a satisfying explanation for two common forms of British English usage that one really wants it to be true.

Lower class English accents, like Aussie accents, are cool. Proper Queens English accents sounds effeminate.

im getting the feeling DividByZero has a really crap accent/voice for the fact he needs to slate our female attracting ones......

i work on a phone for a living, and believe me, im more than capable of getting more revenue from a female customer than a male customer....

its what my accent can do for a woman from another country when im the phone to her at home that makes me know my voice is good ;-)
(english woman of course prefer other foreign accents over an english accent..lol)
