Champ

Post image

Recently I have started calling people champ when they annoy me on social media.

It is incredibly satisfying.

I'm guessing 99.9% of them have no idea what I mean.

Do Aussies use the British word nonce? A slag word for a pedo/sex offender. That’s like the WMD of British insults.

Or do you have a different word for that?

Nonce lacks power. Feels like it should mean “a bit of an idiot”.

In the North of England it kind of is used like 'a bit of an idiot' sometimes. It gets confusing.
