As an independant observer I would say yes that thread is better. However I believe it is sad when you start claiming bragging right about threads that you start. Put it on your CV, you'll go far.
I like "Get stuffed!" which to me means pigging out or eating too much at an all-you-can eat restaurant.
Either the Brits or the Aussies use it as slang for getting pregnant.
I'm an Aussie and get stuffed is polite for "get f**ked!" as in "p*ss off".
I've never heard it used in the context of "getting prega's"
Very confused. Probably 50% of these 'common' British phrases don't register with me at all. And, last time I checked, I'd lived all my 29 years here in the UK.
What about "Cor' blimey"?
I don't care for that one much.

Chillll, I was bored, and I was just messing around, I think this thread is way more interesting, because I have NO CLUE what half of these phrases mean.
