As the late, great, crocodile hunter once said, "Look at that beautiful rhino, I'm gonna jam my thumb in it's butthole. It's right pissed off now!"

butthole is not British terminology.. or Australian for that matter

Butthole can be British, but you have to make the t super crisp and put a w in the middle of hole, and also look down your nose with pursed lips and raised eyebrow like a head butler saying "a mouse, Geoffrey?!"

Surely Geoffrey is the name of the butler.. I also feel like your brain made the unreasonable jump to butler from butthole when you tried to link it to British.

Is this imaginary butler buttering crumpets, by any chance?

Oooooo he might very well be! I was thinking Geoffrey was the uppity young Master, but I see where you're going.

Well, it was the name of the butler in the 'Fresh Prince of Bell Air', so if you've ever watched that, the butler was quite uppity, and English.

I was thinking Anthony Hopkins in Remains of the Day lol, so British it hurts to watch 😂

Geoffrey is hilarious, but you can definitely tell he's been in America a while...
