Azizi, Kermit does indeed come from the muppets - cockney rhyming slang has a long history of incorporating up to date references Bovvered is bothered (and bovver-boys used to be thuggish skinheads) As far as I'm aware the "talk to the hand" thing is a highly annoying import from the US (Oprah Winfrey or Jerry Springer shows mainly) When the weather turns chilly it can be said to be a bit "Pearl Harbor" that is there's a nasty nip in the air.
