bollox

Complete worthless drivel

Bollox is a British spelling variant of bollocks—the testicles, and by extension, nonsense or rubbish: That's complete bollox.

To bollox something up is to bungle it badly.

The word is vulgar but common in casual British and Irish speech, functioning as both noun and expletive: Oh, bollox!
