I sort of got this idea from the thread “Is the word ‘crap’ that obscene?”, and I thought this might make a pretty ok thread. Wasn’t really sure if this should go to The Pit, or InMyHumbleOpinion… I have only one favorite word, Fuck. It’s amazing, you can use it when you get hit or trip or something, or you can use it to curse at someone.

Though if you want a real curse, as in cursing someone and bringing bad mojo down on them, then I go with… Nah, I’m keeping that one a secret.
Bummer
I’m trying to train myself to exclaim “lords of light!” but it still hasn’t quite taken in emotional moments. For those I default to the always-on-call “fuck!”
I use “carp” as a euphemism for “crap” sometimes, and “shirt” for…well, there are children about.
Examples:
“Holy frickin’ shirt!”
“That’s a load of carp.”
I like the “gypsy curse” which was explained in a movie. . oh called something like Nine Conversations About the Same Thing: “May you always get what you ask for.” And if you really don’t like the guy you are toasting to, you give him the double gypsy curse, “May you always get what you ask for, and always ask for what you get.”
But if you wanted my favourite obscenity, I gotta second your choice. It’s just so diverse.
I say Jeepers H. Crackers now even when I mean to swear (sometimes). Give that one a whirl.
Sorry I can’t give the curse green_bladder, but an old frat brother & his girlfriend used to beat me at pool using it all the time and I don’t want history repeating itself. I hear that superstitions work whether you believe them or not…
“Kill me and I’ll see that you never work in this town again!”
I think it may even be affecting my grammer! (“Affecting”?? Maybe it’s gotten to my diction, too! AAARRRGG!)
“swut” and “foonting turlingdromes”
“This is a piss-poor way to run a railroad!”

I probably use the word “fuck” entirely too often.
Perhaps that’s why I’m not actually getting fucked enough.
When just one word one do, the following all run together, bulding into a crescendo:
shitfuckWANK!
I don’t use it often, as I don’t want it to lose its mystical properties.
I like ** “Ten thousand thundering typhoons!” ** but it takes way too long to say, and would perhaps gather a lot of strange looks too.
