well you got me Googling "bladdatory" - did you know there is an expression "bladdatory emancipation"?

Is there any connection between "sealnuts" and the fact you mentioned elsewhere that a squirrel had dropped nuts on you?

My bladder is emancipated.

Regarding male hair loss.

PIBALD, should refer to that process where the loss starts in the middle of the top of the head so that you start to look like a monk. By taking the radius of the bald patch and applying Pi, you can calculate how much bare head you now have as an area.

FRONT ELEVATION would refer to those whose hair recededs from the front, such that their forhead is elevated from the normal couple of inches to something approaching the front elevation of a small bungalow.

RUNWAY PONY. This is where the top of the man's head is so cleanly bald that light aircraft could use it as a landing strip, so to compensate he grows a ponytail at the back.

I'm fed up of being either overwhelmed or underwhelmed. Why can't I just be whelmed occasionally?

So you could say firk off and it wouldn't incur Rizzo's wrath? :smt003

If, like me, you haven't had a drink in weeks, have already had 5 coffees this morning. does this mean that I am "completely on my t*ts", as opposed to the opposite saying?

Two different words Bill. The Firkin does seem to have been mentioned a few times on another thread.
