i doubt most people from this site would understand half of what i say when i speak… except maybe souljah and… no that’s about it.
bloody… is about in between saying “for heavens sake” and “for fucks sake”
it’s not a ‘really bad word’ but i wouldn’t say it at a job interview
not unless i was the guy giving the interview and i was saying 'get the bloody hell out of my office, you cunt"
or something
Hamburger Hill = the pill
So like, instead of saying “the pill” you would say “Hamburger Hill?” As in, like, “she’s on Hamburger Hill?”
As a side comment, what the hell does “Hamburger Hill” have to do with birth control pills? 
It just rhymes? Is that it?

sharky - safe blood…

As a side comment, what the hell does “Hamburger Hill” have to do with birth control pills? It just rhymes? Is that it?

It usually just has to rhyme.
Luvveryly jubberly
lol souljah
looks odd ‘on a screen’
What is/happened at Hamburger Hill?
So is that right? “She’s on Hamburger Hill?”
IronFist
I didn’t know that hamburger hill meant “the pill”, so i can’t comment
but
if it means “the pill” then it’s correct. but if it means “pill” then it would have to be something like “she’s on the hamburger hill”
what does it have to do with anything iron?
Exactly how I heard it used was a question put to me, “You’ve never been on hamburger hill?”
Sharky, I just read something about Cockney rhyming slang and I didn’t know what it was so I thought I’d ask all the British people here

im always into learning new slang, but i doubt i can remember or effectively use the ones you people mentioned

Almost correct. Whistle & flute = suit. Not a suit. Sounds pernicketty, but it’s a relevant point.
The trouble with rhyming slang is that most people that do use it don’t use the whole thing, but just single words that represent the rhyme. Kinda like slang within slang. This requires an example, doesn’t it.
i.e. “Get up them apples and put on your whistle before I slap you right across the boat, you lazy Berkshire!”
In the above example:
Apples = apples & pears = stairs
whistle = whistle & flute = suit
boat = boat race = face
Berkshire = Berkshire hunt = … I’m sure you get the rest of that one. (So think carefully whenever you call someone a berk!)
It’s something that you probably don’t want to get too worried about. It’s a dying dialect. Which is a shame really, but what can you do, eh?
Pukka.
At least we’re all sorted.
