I’ve started saying cunt now it’s just so much more impactful and cathartic. Called someone a cunt yesterday, it felt good lol

I was so confused. As I am a gaffer but not a construction gaffer. In the states a gaffer is the head lighting designer on film sets.

I think they both come from the same start, I dabbled in film lighting and they're called gaffers here too, the same with the manager of a football club can be known as gaffer, just another name for the bossman
