We used to conjugate irregular German verbs under our breath as a substitute for cussin' in high school. "We" being nerds who took German, in this case.
If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
Totally. But really? Her heart shatters? That just makes me want to see that. I have taken similar requests from people who just said "Could you not do that? I hate it." But when I do, I'm either 1. not thinking of god at all. 2. thinking about Mark Twain's quote that cursing is the best prayer ever, cause it's so sincere. But if I say "Jesus!" I'm usually not thinking of The Big J.C. He's not Lurch...he's not going to get confused.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
In a past job, we sometimes used donors' names as curses. "What in the B-----???" It was funny, until I actually met Mrs. B.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
When I was in college, for a while we adopted "Pope" as a swear word.
"Pope you, motherpoper!"

My mother used "Ayatollah Khomeni" as a swear word when I was a girl. It does have a ring to it, but is now sadly outdated (he died.)

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I like "scheisse." I should try to use that more often. You can put a lot of rage and venom into "scheisse."
I picked that one up from Run Lola Run.

Hooray! I have a bathroom to use!
Unfortunately, it has no door and there are all these construction workers around, but I don't care.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So that was weird.
Got called over for birthday cakery. Everyone's speaking a language I don't. They then sing a version of happy birthday with God in it, and two of the guys hand feed the birthday boy tiramisu.
I ended up wandering off. If they can't be bothered to speak English, there's really no point me hanging around.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I used to watch my mouth really carefully at work, but then my Mormon boss was let go and replaced by an Italian from Queens. So things have loosened up a bit.

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 have four onerous tasks.
Someone will need to threaten to fire me so that I will accomplish them.
