Bugger that.
Hello,
Today when I was check my wall in the facebook I could see a commentary from a person from Australian country and well she was writing something that she has happened to her car well for not give you more drag one's feet to this business. She wrote the following when I told her that Mexico is worst the steals, and she answered me with the follow phrase for that reason I don't make drag one's feet this topic, She answered me Gee bugger that When I saw that commentary I left me perplexed with the commentary, because I didn't understand anything about the commentary, then I did a little search in the internet and the same local dictionary here and I was blogging in others forums you know trying to know what exactly what does it means, but I didn't find the answer yet. Please if you may give me the translation of the phrase and what does't it mean by phrase or word, I will be grateful with your suggestions above.

Gee! = euphemism for 'God!' Bugger that. = That's a bugger. = That's too bad. Careful! There's another meaning for 'Bugger that', but she was not using it that way. If you don't want to do something that someone has told you to do, you can reply with 'Bugger that!' ('P*ss off!, or stronger language'). It's vulgar when used that way, and may also be said 'Bugger off!'. This is Australian and British slang. It isn't used in the United States. |

Do you think that I'm worse in my language than before? And thank you for your help. Yes I was checking my wall, I don't know why I write only check maybe, I was in other place when I was redacting this post, it's clear that I have lose the practice, because I don't practice this language with anyone only in some many opportunities that I have with my customers, but that is not enough for me. Well the post that I decided to write as you could see, it's about a conversation that I had with a friend in Facebook, so she told me the happened with her truck or car really I don't know the kind to car, whatever, the important at all this the that she wrote gee bugger I think she was trying to say god **** for had seen her car stole in the park car, already she has a car that was stole with any thief, and she used that expression as a insult, I think in that moment, I understand her point. Because I had in the same situation before any thief in my city stole my car and really that make me upset so much that I screamed mothe...... fuc,, well you know. It's normal. Now that I know what it means, I'm going try to understand her more, so she and me together we can get a conversation more understanding it.
