Pending the outcome of [Dan Savage’s latest survey](http://www.theonionavclub.com/avclub3719/savage3719.html), I nominate “punt” as the replacement for “felch.”

“You goat-punted fuckwit.”

Hmmm… I have kind of a special place in my heart for “tossed salad,” thought.

“You goat salad-tossing fuckwit.”

I dunno. Methinks we need to get rid of the goats, too.

Oh, c’mon, Black… read up a little on [munging](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?postid=594697#post594697) and then tell me that “punt” would be a better replacement.
