1453:" is a redlink so is probably less helpful than simply reading the "bollocks" article. Secondly, the sentence implies that "bullshit", like "bollocks", can be used in a number of ways including to mean "top quality" or "perfection" (which I don't think is true). Thirdly, it does not do justice to the perceived severity of "bollocks" (number 8 in the survey referred to in the article) compared with "shit" (number 17 in the same survey). The article already references "bullshit" when decribing the negative uses of "bollocks" so I suggest we don't need it in the intro.

1180:: The suggestion that this is a euphemism for The Dog's Bollocks is, frankly, bollocks. Euphemisms follow the original, but TBK pre-dates TDB as it was certainly in use a long time before TDB ... around 1900 and likely earlier, "The Bee's Knees" comes from the same place as "The Cat's Pyjamas". The only connection between TBK and TDB is the similar meaning. So I've removed it from the list of euphemisms.

According to this article, "ballbag" was popularised by

You can argue that, because of the court case, it's "officially" not an obscenity. However, it is still quite an offensive word to many people.

you describe is perfectly correct, and I did not object to this. My point is that it is only *very specific idioms* containing 'bollock' or 'bollocks' that mean goodness, and to suggest that 'bollocks' in general can mean goodness is misleading. I adjusted the intro to make this clear, and am quite

Oh, and "top bollock", as described in section 5. However, "the dog's bollocks", "the bollocks" and "top bollock" are very specific usages with very specific meanings. To indicate in the introduction that "bollocks" might mean "top quality" or "perfection" seems to me to be quite misleading, no?

The distinction is really very clear. Let's say, for example, you go to the theatre and afterwards a friend asks you what the play was like. "It was bollocks" indicates that you didn't like it. "It was the bollocks" shows that you enjoyed it very much. The key is the insertion of the definite
1117:: I don't think it belongs here. It is a great word in its own right, but it is not a euphemism for bollocks. It has no anatomical connotations; it can only be substituted for one very specific use of bollocks; when someone says "balderdash" it doesn't sound like they really meant "bollocks".
