In any case, I love the idea of switching to "motherfucker" instead. You know, out of respect.
I may have to do that. My sister suggested I start going all Quebec. Tabernac! Or maybe, TABERNAC, MOTHERFUCKER!
Bye, now. Have good sex.

Our wings are not tired.
I just don't know how I'm going to open my mouth around here. It's like one of my primary communication (not to mention coping) mechanisms is being cut off!
Understandable! Now I am trying to figure out, if you start to say "Jesus", what you can segue into..."Jellyfuck!"?

Also, when she did report to me directly I really tried to be more careful, or at least more seruptitious about it. I think I've just backslid.

Okay, you could always swear by giving Zeus cooking lessons!

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
I think it was a polite email, if an unusual request. I've retrained myself to swear in Spanish or Swedish, depending on which speakers are surrounding me. Spanish has loads of great swears but there do tend to be a lot of Spanish speakers/understanders about. Swedish is a better bet for me.
And then there's the chance to invent more creative invective in English. We tend to rely heavily on the same 7 dirty words and it's a bit tired. I have also been critiquing my use of misogynistic stuff like "son of a bitch" - it's the person you want to insult, what does their mom have to do with it?
I think it's why the Orbit commercial is so damned funny. It doesn't matter as much what the people are saying, it's the intention behind it that counts. [link]

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I am so tired of morons.

Maybe we can march them off to rocket ships to colonize Mars?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I am so tired of people who think there's no snow in Africa. Find another reason to think it's a dumb song, nitwit.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
can I have an A because I do, in fact, know the information, and I showed up every day, and participated, plus, I am pretty damn cool.
"Heh heh heh....Heh. No. Also I'm docking you a letter grade for being an idiot, and making it a minus because you don't know what 'cool' is. Grotesque entitlement is not cool. Seriously. Not."
brenda, I recommend going old school and shouting, "Christ's Wounds!" Or maybe, "By the gleaming white eye sockets of Samson." Or borrowing from Ron Weasley, "Merlin's saggy left nutsack!"
