To cock someone is to telephone them, wait for them to answer, say or shout the word 'cock' and then hang up. When this happens, you have been 'cocked'. The practice was made
popular in the UK by the hit comedy series 'The Office', in which the hapless
Gareth would regularly be cocked by Tim and
Dawn.
Nojworth: We haven't cocked
Gary lately
MacDaddy: No, lets do it! (phones
Gary)
Gary: (answers phone) Hello?
MacDaddy: COCK! (hangs up)
Nojworth and MacDaddy laugh hysterically
Gary: (annoyed) Great. I've just been cocked.
