Verb sense 2: "British vulgar slang: To exhaust, tire out. I woke at 17:05 and felt totally bollocked. After a shower, I went to the NAAFI for some sarnies and orange juice." I am fairly sure this is legitimate, but I think it's only an adjective, bollocked. I don't think it's a verb: "this piece of work bollocked me" (made me tired) does not seem to exist, and I did do some searching. If this fails, please move it to the Adjective, where I can probably cite it if required. Equinox 05:02, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
