For Us Brits, A Household Appliance, For The Rest Of You...Give It A Try, June 1, 2006
This review is from: Roger's Profanisaurus (Hardcover)
Viz has always been great immature and often potty-mouthed fun. And here the boys create a dictionary of hilarious terms and phrases. If you are already aware of Viz's comics and you cant help but giggle at them, then you need to get this book. I think the best thing to do is give a few examples -
'Brown eye - The ring through which the brown trout jump on their daily migration to the sea.'
'Fanny nosher - A woman in comfortable shoes who takes the other bus to dine at the Y.'
'Rasputin - An unkempt vaginal or anal beard.'
'Gammon flaps - 1. Hole in a farmhouse door through which pigs come and go at will. 2. Beef curtains, gammon goalposts.'
Hopefully this gives you an idea of the contents. It is basically a whole host of immature, crass terms and phrases. If you enjoy a little bit of potty-mouthed humour Brit-style, then you will enjoy this a lot.

Worth a Farthling, September 8, 2005
This review is from: Roger's Profanisaurus (Hardcover)
This is the ultimate reference book for anybody interested in British vulgarity. I should mention that the book is Hi-f**ing-larious. It belongs on every limey-wannabe bachelor's toilet tank. You will laugh out loud when you randomly select a page & read the slang definitions.

Hysterical British Swear Word Dictionary, September 24, 2004
This review is from: Roger's Profanisaurus (Hardcover)
Taken from submissions of readers to British humor magazine VIZ, this book presents a compendium of swear words, pub talk and all around general verbal nastiness. But in an entertaining way. Any Anglophile with a twisted sense of humor needs this one!
