Don't forget "bugger". Strictly speaking, buggery is anal sex, but bugger has somehow transmuted into a milder form of "fuck". "Well, bugger me!" is a common expression of astonishment.
"Shag" is another good one, familiar to some due to the Austin Powers films.
"Bellend" refers to the glans of the penis, as does "knob". Calling a guy a bellend or knob is roughly the same as saying he's an arsehole. (And of course most English regional accents drop the "R" sound, so arsehole sounds very similar to asshole.)
Tosser is the same as wanker.
"Cunt" in British English is a bit weird. It can be an insult, but guys also use it as a term of endearment when speaking to their mates.
Brits - fuckin L, Americans - fuckin A
