From a TV edit of Lethal Weapon 2 (or three? the South Africa one anyway):  
‘Let’s get those muddy funsters’.

And I thought that melon-farmers was unbeatable.

The original **Smokey and the Bandit** has been getting a lot of play on Bravo lately. Seems sort of odd to hear it without all the dubs; the only ones I can remember at the moment are the “crumb bum” for “sumbitch” and the positively odd “genes” for “loins”. What, they couldn’t have “loins” on broadcast TV?

A couple of my friends will utter “suck” when something frustrating happens… it’s quite humorous because they say it with such passion.

I prefer the term “crapsicle” when I can’t use the more choice term “fucksicle.” I really don’t like using exactly the same thing as everyone else when I get frustrated.

My favorite adjective has to be “craptacular” when I’m having a bad day.

Usual word of frustration, while at work, on the phone, with a live mic: “Oh, HECK!”

Usual words of extreme frustration: “Oh, heck FIRE!”

Of course, when I get really frustrated, my Southern accent (most of which I sold for book money in college) comes back…so it comes out “Heck FAR!” I try to stay away from “Shoot” because the accent makes it perilously close to “Shit” to our East Coast clientele…but they seem to find the occasional “Heck FAR!” very amusing.

“Oh, fish heads!”  
“For Heaven’s sake!”  
“Darwin’s name!”
