I figured it meant something dirty. But had no idea it's exact translation was testicles.

Don't forget to buy your copy of Quake III before I get home, cause I want to play it with someone! Although I probably won't have much time for gaming for a while...
so can you put "bollocks" in a sentence so I can get the context of its common use? Or is it a utilitarian 4 letter word that can be any part of speech depending on the moment and the power of the explicative?

The entry from Wikipedia is as follows:
The word is often used figuratively, most commonly as a noun to mean "nonsense" or as an expletive following a minor accident or misfortune, but also in a number of other ways: as an adjective to mean "poor quality" or "useless", as a noun to mean "top quality" or "perfection" (e.g., "That bike is the dog's bollocks!"), and in various compound expressions (see below). Owing to its versatility, bollocks has been called the Swiss Army knife of andrological profanities, in that it is the most versatile word in the English language.

I am also sick/super allergic and it is also rainy here. Even this far away our 4ths won't be that different! I will spend mine playing LoTR Online.
