about bollocks
i know that the word bollocks is used similarly to bullshit. But i saw a sentence: I think u r absolute bollocks. A boy said it to his girlfriend,anyway it seems to be a positive word in this context?
So i'm puzzled

In this case it means crazy or a failure. It is never meant as a positive comment. I would have to see the context.

In the UK if something is considered to be extremely good we refer to it as being `the dog`s bollocks`
Or as the Romans would say Canine Genitalus
