Not sure that pillock counts as non-swearing.

I'm fond of the terms rotter and wanker, the latter of which I believe is considered to be quite vulgar, lol.

The first I have heard, refers to someone in the advanced stages of syphilis, when the body beings to decay. So it is quite rude, though I do not know how true the story is.

@Fernapple Hhmm, interesting. If whenever I use that word, these are the definitions I had in mind.-

Guess that word has different meaning(s) in the UK and the US.

@SpikeTalon No I think it has the same meaning here, it is just that that is held to be the origin of it.
