Book Description

September 1, 2002
The ultimate in schoolboy humor, this is the book for anyone who truly loves Viz humor! Roger Mellie presents a new edition of his classic dictionary of swearing that gives a hilarious new angle to many previously innocently used words. Fully updated for the new millennium with definitions culled from the intellects of Viz's finest readers, this is positively the last word in contemporary profanity.

4.0 out of 5 stars 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.

5.0 out of 5 stars 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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hysterical British Swear Word Dictionary, September 24, 2004

Lalo (Jackson Georgia) - See all my reviews
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!
