Today, I discovered that the word 'randy' means 'horny' in England. I'm going to England next semester to study abroad. My name is Randy. FML

We aren't retarded. We use the word horny a lot more. Randy is a dying word over here.

When I was in England, the name Lou seemed to be very popular. It has a little tinkle to it.

Don't worry, nobody actually uses that word

I'm going to just throw this one out here but Randy is used (albeit rarely) all across Britain, not just in England (which is the southern part). I HATE it when people refer to it Britain as 'England' :L.

The op may not have known it was used throughout all of Britain.. She was speaking more specifically of just England, since that is where she is visiting.

yeah I know. But there were other comments that made me think that was the case. Sorry I never aimed it specifically :L.

Yeah, no worries. I see it a lot too :)

yup 163. Highlander who now lives on the East coast, but still speaks Gaelic regardless. :L. Although I imagine the Welsh get annoyed at Britain being called England... 'randy' also sounds better if u use it in a Scottish sets. 'oh min, 'at burd oer their is fair randy ken?' it doesn't sound as good in normal everyday English :L.

randy orton ???? Hope he doesn't know this ..

We do actually use 'horny' over here. I don't think many people actually say the word 'randy' anymore. You have nothing to worry about!

I use it when describing the neighbour's bloody Jack Russel.

I hardly ever hear the word 'randy' used in that way and I'm English.

It also means "prostitute" in Nepalese
