    In the United Kingdom and Australia, the term nonce sometimes spelled "nonse" is a slang word used to refer to a sex offender and/or child sexual abuser.

    it also means a one off, a word coined for one occasion it also means as I said earlier a stupid and worthless person, that about sums Dive up in my opinion. check it out

    So, after a few pages of standing behind the common interpretation as described by myself and Very Rusty … you are now backing away from it, is that right?

    Don’t back away from what you said “tougher than me” guy.
    The word was especially used in the phrase for the nonce, meaning "for the one purpose," as in Geoffrey Chaucer's "Prologue" of Canterbury Tales: "A cook they hadde with hem for the nones To boille the chiknes with the marybones."

    I am sure this is the definition badge was alluding to. 🙄

    Oh you…what are you tough guys on the internet like!

    Why didn’t you say this several pages ago, right at the start instead of letting us all believe you meant child sex abuser?

    Gosh I feel so silly right now, thinking you meant pedophile when you actually meant “stupid and worthless”.

    I’m sure it was, in fact I’m sure that badradger felt quite upset when he realised that I thought he was calling me a pedophile.

    He might be “tougher than me”, in fact I’m sure he is because he’s quite intimidating online, but I’m relieved to know that he would never say a thing like that.

    Well, that’s that almost sorted out completely. I just need Very Rusty to clear up those questions I asked him on the previous page and we are good to go.
