or U could B creative and combine things like “carn god fluggering shunt bint!!!” or something in latin “OH ME MISERUM! CANNES MORTUS EST!” which I think translates into “oh miserable me! the dog is dead!” ---

Fuck me up the ass with 10,000 lesbian guinea pigs! Our fearless leader mentioned one that I have never used, but greatly admire: “I shit on God, on the cross, on the carpenter who made it and on the son of a whore who planted the pine.” Try to learn it in the original Catalan. Oh, and [here’s](http://www.straightdope.com/classics/a3_238.html) the link. ---

Maybe it just sounds good. But if I’m really pissed, I’ll hiss: “Son of a Bitch!,” through clenched teeth. Guess I’m not all that imaginative. ---

Well, if things got as bad as were described in the OP, I might have to resort to the ultimate: Oh, poo! ---

**Mother-fucking-shit-sucking-COCKSUCKER!!!** It’s said in a crescendo that begins with an almost-silent “Mother” and ends with me screaming “COCKSUCKER” and slamming something inanimate (table, car, wall, my skull) with my fist. I’ve also learned from experience not to say it when my six-year old niece is in the next room watching “Rugrats” (sorry, sis). I’m probably going to start saying “God’s Cock!” from now on, though (thanx, BigGiantHead!). 🙂 ---

I’d curse in French. “Hostie d’crisse de saint-sacrement de calice de taber_nacle!_” Literal translation: “Communion wafer of Christ of the holy sacrament of a chalice of a tabernacle!” Alternatively, we have Catalan: “Mecagum Deu, en la creu, en el fuster que la feu, i en el fill de puta que va plantar el pi!” As mentioned above. Yes, I really do use this, even though I’m unclear on pronunciation. Or Spanish: “Me cago en la leche de la puta madre que te parió!” (I shit in the milk of the whorish mother who bore you!" Or simply: Aw Jesus H. Motherfucking Christ on a crutch! ---

If I feel restricted from using an expletive to vent frustration, I will scream “EXPLETIVE” and confuse all around me. It makes me feel better than an actual expletive. ---

> [@](#): > > Indyca said > "Just one word, thats all I need, just one word… > > JJJJJEEEEEEEEBBBBBBBBUUUUUUUUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!! > > And its all good…Thank you Homer " I have taken to saying “Great leepin’ Jebus!” when provoked. However in a situation as described in the OP, I launch into a loud faux-foreign language rant. Totaly make up words on the fly. It usualy sounds like russian for some reason… ---

I swear a lot in daily life, so when something really honks me off, I generally revert to non-curses, such as tomndebb’s “oh, poo.” I’ve been trying to curb my language anyway, since I do have small children. My grandmother has some good ones, that I’ve been working in to my vocabulary: “What in the Sam Hill…” “Sugar jets!” and my personal favorite, “Baloney fat!” [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/whats-your-best-curse/34233.md?page=1) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/whats-your-best-curse/34233.md?page=3)
