Greatest Curse Words

People like to curse. It's fun and colorful and can add power to our language if used correctly. This thread is all about cursing and the best curse words.

Mother****er has to be the GOAT curse word. It rolls off the tongue. I believe Jim Bouton referred to mother****er as "the magic word" to get umpires to throw a player/manager out in the classic book Ball Four. The idea of ****ing somebody's mother is very powerful. I think there may be Greek myths and Greek plays on the subject.

Another favorite of mine is ****, a slang term for a woman's vagina. Packs a punch, that one! Especially when directed toward a woman. I've heard it's common for UK men to call each other ****s jocularly.

********** is another classic, if used correctly in a good-spirited way.

So this thread is about cursing, your feelings about cursing, when it's appropriate and in what company, etc. Feel free to add your goddamn *********** mother****ing opinions.

We're off to a slow start. Here's the great George Carlin. I like how poontang gets applause. People said poontang a lot where I grew up.

In American. Personally, I wouldn't feel right saying it.

I wouldn't say it's that common. It's not really a term of endearment.

NSFW! (Stupid Arsenal ****ing ****s.)

Re: Greatest Curse Words

Lately I've been combining "oh for ****'s sake" and "oh for crying out loud" to make "oh for ****ing out loud" when I get frustrated or annoyed.

The problem with this thread is ******. I can figure out that **** is **** but I'm not sure what **** is. How about we use acronyms FFS? Maybe alternate spelling you Phucking Phucks. Work with me here. Phuck me running.
