Guff (n)
guf
Foolish talk or ideas.
I wonder which came first, the English definition or the Scottish? Guff in Scotland means an unpleasant smell (usually from someone/thing breaking wind.) Either way, they compliment one another perfectly.
Example sentences
“Oh stop talking such guff, you have no idea what you’re talking about.”
“Ugh, what is that stench; did you guff?.”
