Osti de saint-sacrament de crisse de câlice de ciboire de tabarnac!
Learn Quebecois French. You will never lack for curses.
I have found a new love for the word introduced to us from the series Farscape: Frell, used exactly the same ways as “fuck,” but, since it’s new and isn’t a (human) swearword, you can use it freely without fear of offending anyone, but it feels like fuck - kind of a combination of “fuck” and “hell” and a hint of “rat bastard.”
- Frell me!
- Frell you!
- What the frell was that?
- Stick that frellin’ code in your ear!
You get the idea.
Esprix
Hmmm. My nickname around the family is Donkey. So this wouldn’t work for me, unless I was making everyone angry.

Check your cases.
You could swear like my dad does.
Judas Priest and Son of a Brick are the two phrases that he uses the most.
For those of you using the foreign phrases, could I get a translation please?!?
Saint-crisse de maudit calvaire de tabarnak d’ostie de patente a gosses à marde!
I strongly agree with Matt_Mcl’s suggestion.
Comme on dit au Québec: Le Français, c’est sacré!
Sacrament que ça fait du bien de sacrer sur SD!, 'stie
Trat, Esprix, you beat me too it. Eat dren and die you blotching hynerian freller.
[sub]damn, I love that show.
Not exactly new swear words, but you might find the Shakesperian Insult generator useful:

I think this one has a certain ring to it: “Thou gleeking plume-plucked hugger-mugger!”
Borrow from other languages!
Japanese is a surprisingly good one… (bear with me on the romanji. I’ve gotten out of the ‘habit’ of reading with it.)
Baka! (Use it to refer to a person. Basically: Stupid! Can mean more than that, depending on tone.)
Zakennayo! (All purpose. Shit, fuck, asshole, etc.)
Yabaiyo! (Shit, fuck, I/we blew it, etc.)
(The above are from: The Real Japanese You Were Never Taught In School, by Philip Cunningham. I also have another one in this series for German, somewhere in this room. You’re better off finding someone who really speaks the language well for the really good stuff.)
Worst case, use Babel fish to translate normal English into other languages, and find some that sound good. For some reason, it can’t seem to translate ‘Damn it!’ into Japanese though. sigh
<< I’m not feeling myself today. May I feel you? >>
“[tu mater] habitas in fornice” means:
You live in a brothel/whorehouse/place of debauchery.
And re: borrowing from languages, anaq.
Sheee-it.
Monty, I have to tell you that we had a cat , a mean cat that we named Znidd suddabit. The name fit him well.
Now, I just know theres somebody here who can post some Klingon swear words. C’mon, 'fess up!
I’ve always used a variant of jumpin’ jizzy chrizzy on a pogo stick. It hasn’t failed me yet.
“Blackguards!..Egoists!..Nitwits!..Troglodytes!..Polygraphs!”
You want creative cursing - just pick up any Tintin comic with Captain Haddock in it - or look here where a guy named Dave thoughtfully put together a list of his favorite Haddock epithets. Bashi-Bazouks!
Thatcher!
I really must thank you all again for your creative input - with the aid of a Scheisse! and a histoplasmosis! and the occasional forfiku!, I was able to chase down my bug. (It came down to Bill verdammter Gates telling fibs in his product documentation again - Scheisskopf.)
Esprix, Beeblebrox - if I’m going to use SFnal swearwords, why not go for frack and felgercarb? (How’s that for showing my age and proving I have no taste, all in the same sentence?)
And, Beeblebrox, I see you don’t dare recommend B*****m…
kabbes - :eek: I’m shocked. Truly I am…
When I was younger I always thought that “goddamnit” was the worst possable cuss word anyone could ever use. Then one day I overheard a highschool kid say “goddamn and baby jesus”. I thought “man that is just wrong, I mean whyd he have to bring the baby jesus in on this? He is really going to hell now”. Now, I use cussing to releave stress as well,SW and feel really really bad when I let goddamnit slip, but if I am just blind with pure rage and let goddamn and baby jesus slip then I feel so bad that I wont cuss for weeks!
You could always go with the ultimate all-purpose word: smurf.
*This smurfin’ botl won’t loosen!
Get your smurfy butt back here!
I’m gonna smurf the smurin’ smurf out of that smurf smurfer!
Ohh, baby, smurf my smurfing smurf and swallow my smurfing smurf smurf…oooohhhhhh!*
[sub]Actually, the show Family Guy did something like this last week, which is why it’s fresh in my memory.[/sub]
Frickin’ Huckleberries!
I prefer “frag,” “zark,” and “slag,” myself.
