A nerd.
Used to describe someone who is stupid; a contraction of the phrase "fucking retard".
An excessively stupid or unpleasant person who, even when demonstrably wrong, will NOT admit it, e.g. "You are a complete fuckwit!". Also someone so "dense" that though not actually certifiable, are so out to lunch they live in a different world.
The current hero of this bunch is celebrated by the "adult comic" Viz in the form of Terry Fuckwit. Subsequently this has led to the use of the word "Terence" or "Terry" being used as a euphemism for fuckwit. e.g. "You're a bit of a Terry aren't you?".

Male homosexual

I'm informed by Sean that he was using the word in Orkney in the early 80's late 70's which pushes it back a bit from the 1990's!
Contraction of "Forget About It", as in "Should I worry about that?", "Nah, fuggedaboudit".

Any rumour. C-1914 - present Aus, Water carts of the Australian Army during WWI were manufacturered by the company Furphy and Sons. When soldiers had time to discuss various rumours it was mostly done whilst collecting daily water rations. Hence they earnt the name that was cast on the rear of the water tank "Furphy". (ed: more history!)
As a "polite" variation on the contraction "clusterfuck", to describe a situation that is FUBAR eg: "This is a complete fustercluck", "They've fusterclucked this up" etc, In current use in most of Essex (although not with rudes and gary boys!) (ed: somone like to define rudes and gary boys please?)
The police. General term for any law enforcement operatives.
(ed: anyone got any idea why the police became known as fuzz)
Martin couldn't help with the origins but suggested the word was used to describe the police during the late sixties and seventies but is less common today, in N. America at least.
Keith suggests this origin:
It originated in the 60s hippies days, when crewcuts/skinhead cuts were de rigeur for the police, as opposed to the flowing locks of those using the word. Normal usage in late 60s/early 70s UK - I think the musical 'Hair' may have popularised it.
Throw, as in "Fuzz it over here.". Verity sends the following critique: Fuzz (used in the sense of throwing) was being used in the early eighties at schools across UK. Spoken at speed during ball games, the phrase "throw us it, became thrus'it, and thence became fuzz it !... " It's been in some English dictionaries since at least '88.
(ed: which is why I suppose we had it's useage dating from the 1960's - but there you go!)
To fweep someone is to smack their dangly bits. Almost exclusively used for guys, because girls don't *have* anything to fweep. Generally the fweeper will be standing next to his victim and suddenly backhand the poor guy. (ed: anyone have any idea where this comes from?)
