I guess U could be “up yours” and W could be “wanker”. The selections for J, M, and P struck me as kind of odd, but maybe that’s because I’m not an Australian… in the US, there are other terms that would come to mind much quicker. ---

These are fairly UK-centric in their selection (inspired by Father Ted & Red Dwarf amongst others), although I was reminded this morning of “poepal” which is _egte Suid-Afrikaans_ (real South African). ---

A is for Asshole, in all of his forms; B is for Bollocks, and Bitch, and Bullshit; C is for Cocksucker (sometimes for Cunt); D is for Damn and its cousin Damn it! E is for Evil (that’s pretty weak tea); F is for Fuck, (that makes up for E!) G is for Goddamn, a classic of sorts; H is for Hell, (or for Heck, if you’re twee). I is for Idiot (vowels, step up!) J is for Jackass (that’s barely a curse!) K is for Klansman (it’s dirty to me!) L is for Lameass (and it’s getting worse). M is for Motherfuck -er, -ing, or it; N is for Nigger (that’s cursing now, right?) O is for Onan, who invented the wank; P is for Prick, and for Pussy, and Prat. Q is for Queer, if your mind works that way; R is for Rimjob, 'cause that’s all I’ve got; S is for Shit, and for all of its friends; T is for Testicles, Tits, and for Twat. U is another lazy-ass vowel; V is for Vage - or Vagina? Vay-jay? W gives us the Whore and the Wank; X, Y, and Z - man, those letters won’t play. ---
