I don't see the word nobhead so I consider it inaccurate
Maybe they didn’t know the origin of berk (Berkeley Hunt in Cockney rhyming slang)…

Prat Div Twit Twerp Smeghead
Are some other mild ones that I don't really hear anymore

Is dipstick a british thing? I've heard it plenty in america. The rest are definitely foreign to me.
replies:
Pillock and plonker are rude, meaning cock either way, but it’s kind of archaic and lost the emphasis. Berk on the other hand is full on rude, but used lightly compared to its direct translation from rhyming slang
Where does wanker fall? Is it a curse word?

What melt made this list?
Irish list if you want to take it from us like you took everything else from us
- Gom : mostly harmless fool
- Pleidhce (ply-kah) : unserious fool
- Eejit : idiot, but nice
- Jackeen : a waver of miniature union jacks
- Gom(b)ee(n) : a mostly harmless fool who is also small either in stature or importance.
- Mog: a backwards gom
- Headwreck : annoying, frustrating
- The Notions on him/her/them/etc : someone with a grand personal image
- Gowl : (a junction, specifically that between your legs)
- Langer (long story, TLDR don't shoot monkeys)
Edit: Lemmy markdown doesn't let you count down but as a lazy half-arsed Irish stereotype I'm not fixing it
replies:
Would knobhead be without cursing? From my understanding, "knob" is basically the same as "dick."

Thank you, Only Fools and Horses, for introducing me to plonker and wally!
replies:
TIL that wazzock is a British word. I've only heard it as a Dwarfish word in Warhammer universe.
