AKACroatalin's definitions
An expression of annoyance or disgust from the South West of England, and can be applied to just about anything from physical objects and people to ideas and opinions. It originated quite literally from something getting into the nasal passages and causing pain, irritation and aggravation. From there its use expanded to cover just about anything that causes annoyance, exasperation or discomfort. It is now used widely throughout the UK.

Although now usually spelled oik, the original spelling was an acronym standing for Obnoxious Ignorant Cunt except when applied to junior officers (ruperts) when it became Obnoxious Idiotic Cunt.

Get the OIC mug.This is British slang and is a slightly less vulgar way of saying pain in the arse or pain in the ass if you are American. In this expression the bum in question isn’t an American bum, a word that dates from around the mid nineteenth century, but an English or Australian bum, a word that dates back to the early seventeenth century. At one time the word was not considered to be vulgar at all and was used extensively during the seventeenth an eighteenth centuries. One Gentleman Soldier, fighting for the King during the English Civil War, wrote in a letter that on one occasion the going as so difficult that he “slipped and fell on my bum”.

Get the Pain in the Bum mug.It’s an adjective and it means having or showing a bad temper; being annoyed and irritable; being cranky or disagreeable.

Get the Ill-tempered mug.The term 'mutton dressed as lamb' was first used in the journal of social gossip that Mrs Frances Calvert compiled in 1811, and is possibly attributed to the then Prince of Wales (later George IV). At a musical evening, the Prince was asked whether he did not think some girl pretty. He reputedly answered, “Girl! Girls are not to my taste. I don't like lamb; but mutton dressed like lamb!”
In this case, ‘dressing’ refers to the preparation of food before cooking. The implication in 'dressed as lamb' is that the woman has prepared herself for a romantic encounter. 'Mutton dressed as lamb' was originally a disparaging description of a woman aiming to deceive men into believing she was younger than she really was; back then it was an economic necessity for a woman to marry while still of childbearing age.
Nowadays it refers exclusively to a woman who is deluded and thinks herself attractive in clothes, jewellery and make-up usually worn by those much younger. She’s probably looked in the mirror and thinks herself sex on legs, but she merely proves that eyesight deteriorates with age.

Get the Mutton Dressed as Lamb mug.Daisy is small and soft and very pretty. She is quite shy and finds it difficult to trust people, but this is gradually improving. She loves her food and is quite forward about asking for a meal and when she eats her table manners are not the best. She is very talkative, but is sometimes difficult to understand. She is not an intellectual, but sometimes exhibits some quite amazing insights. She hasn’t had the easiest of lives and this worries her sometimes as she thinks bad things may happen to her again. She loves to play and is very energetic, but she also loves to sleep and will spend hours drowsing with her eyes half-closed.
