Flash light = Torch
Popsicle | Lolly Pop
What do you guys call these then:

Torch

Lolly
I would have a bad feeling for calling anything a lolly as it sounds to much like a lolli.
Saying out loud you want to suck on that "lolly / lolli" could be a issue.![]()
If you want to compare UK and US english, just open pretty much any thread made in the last 9 months. Necktard's basically high jacked every single one of them.
What's lolli?

Do we want to venture in to the wild world of cockney rhyming slang?
