@Onsola: can you confirm?

Fun fact, del Potro is an Argentinian tennis player, and he's pretty good, okno
edit, can be used on wolves/foxes just fine

Stuff - A recent headline in the New Statesman read "stuff the millennium". Using stuff in this context is a polite way of saying "f*** the millennium". Who cares! Stuff it! You can also say "stuff him" or "stuff her" meaning they can sod off.
