    I think I'll start saying that instead of Bullsh!t. It sounds kinda like it.

    Twit is quite innocent really, just means someone who is dim at that moment
    I like the American word for it 'goose' :p
    I'm such a 'goose' ............ :D

    We use twit here, Ive never heard goose unless it's prefaced by silly. You're a silly goose.

    There is another 4 letter t word that's not so nice...it's twit but with an A. It's not as bad as the C word though.

    I agree that can't is a terrible word that should never ever be used.
