Etymology
Bollocks was originally a rude word for 'testicles' and comes from an old idea of a small round 'ball', like the simple word ball. That's why people use bollocks to call something 'nonsense' or 'rubbish' — it became a strong, crude way to say something is not true or not worth taking seriously.
