Secondo Helen Fielding "fuckwittage" si pronuncia alla francese e fa rima con "fromage". Non sono ancora riuscita a pensare a due buone parole italiane adeguate a tradurre sostantivo astratto e persona che lo incarna, anche se suppongo che nella versione italiana di BJ si sia in qualche modo risolta la cosa... qualcuno ce l'ha per caso? In ogni caso in BJ il concetto generale si restringe aggiungendo l'aggettivo "emotional".
Fuckwittage / fuckwittery:
(1) Acting the fool; foolishery.
(2) Stupidity.
(3) To fuck-with (someone / -thing).

The term "fuckwit" may now be used quite easily in non-technical circles and probably applies just as equally to many people we meet in everyday life. Rude people, devoid of manners. Loud people, especially those who use their mobile telephone in totally inappropriate environments and only know two voice volumes ('silent' and 'shouting').
Many fuckwits drive buses. Actually, many fuckwits just 'drive' - badly.
However, not all drivers, of buses or otherwise, are fuckwits.
Fuckwits park on pavements and in disabled parking spaces when they are not entitled to do so.
Fuckwits always believe they have 'right of way'.
Fuckwits drop litter in the street.
Fuckwits only generally care about themselves and this is evident in their overall attitude toward everything and everyone else.
Fuckwits always know absolutely everything in the history of everythingness.
Fuckwits talk lots and listen little.
Fuckwits never allow evidence to prevent them continuing to be a fuckwit.
Fuckwits, basically, are fuckwits.There is no cure.
You'll know when you meet a fuckwit.

fuckwit - an idiot or buffoon of the highest order. In Helen Fielding's Brigit Jones' Diary a 'fuckwit' is specifically a man who messes a woman around, engaging in 'fuckwittage'.

Emotional Fuckwittage
Sorry guys, but this entry bashes your kind for a bit. Am just a little pissed at someone. And this sorry-assed guy happens to be afflicted with emotional fuckwittage.
Emotional fuckwittage is a syndrome that afflicts about 80% of guys I've met. Clinical signs of this syndrome include:
inability to be truthful as to whether you are attached or not coming on to other girls big-time when you are attached inability to commit leading girls on about how you really feel about them.
The above list isn't complete, really, but basically an afflicted male may exhibit one or more of the signs. It's really fucking disgraceful. A classic example of a man afflicted with emotional fuckwittage is clearly described in the Bridget Jones Diary- Daniel Cleaver.

Siccome qualcuno si chiederà come sono finita sulla pagina che propongo, mi discolperò dicendo che stavo cercando una definizione precisa di "fuckwittage" , parola molto usata nel Diario di BJ, dal quale libro volevo trarre delle citazioni da mettere in questo blog.
Comunque sia credo sia una pagina molto istruttiva...quindi eccola qui.
