Yesterday Thunderthighs chose to indulge in some silly, inappropriate, ultimately harmless, loud verbal public behaviour - much to the consternation of those who know him (other than his parents).
 

Discussing this with his father this morning I ended my comments with "Twatt!"
"Harsh but fair" was the reply
"Why harsh? What would you call it then?"
"Pillock"
"What's the difference between a Pillock and a Twatt?"
"A Twatt has more of an air of menace about it"

 

So there you are: etymology as well as entomology.

McChurch  I just wrote that down for future reference. I think "Ya tube" is at the level of "Pillock" on the scale. (For cultural balance).

Bentonbag  We also decided "Wazzock" was at the lowest end of the scale.
