Is "the dog's bollocks" brilliant or non-brilliant?

Dec 23, 2015, 6:32 AM

Ace suggestions all on my requests for alternatives to "brilliant" thread! londonguy was especially helpful! tuscl.net

But I'm curious, is "the dog's bollocks" good or bad? Or both? If I was I dog I'd rather have my balls than be fixed! Maybe it was the bollocks removal is what made little 4got 4get to use the papers! On the other hand, I don't want the dog's bollocks up in my face, so I could see it being seriously non-ace!

And what is the antonym of "the bee's knees"? I'm thinking "the bee's elbows!"

"Brilliant" is best; just stay with that.

Doubleplusgood suggestion rockstar666! But I'm still curious whether "the dog's bollocks" is a good thing and whether "the bee's elbows" will catch on!

Would you ever be willing to use "the bee's elbows" in a conversation? How do you think would people react? The phrase is really growing on me! ;)

"The Dogs Bollocks" is a phrase we use when something is better than brilliant. "It's the Bees Knees" not elbows. A less crude way of saying something is good.
