Is there a cuss word comperable to FUCK! except using violence? |
|
I've been thinking about violence ans sex again, and empatic or swear words. Seems like cussing takes 3 forms, sex, excretion and religion. It also seems like violence is much more accepted in our culture than sex is (except violence disguised as sex). I'd like to change it around where consensual sex, nudity, so on, is acceptable and violence is not. I was wondering if there are any cuss words, or emphatic "I just hit my thumb with a hammer" words that are violence related.
Does anyone have one? "STAB!" just doesn't do it. AGENT ORANGE! nope.
Help.

As in, slang for gun.
Though, I do like "Agent Orange!" better.

|

10. violence yes, but too close to sex for the dumb to understand |
|
needs to be violence without sexual overtones so people don't get confused.

12. No, or yes, rape has definite overtones |
|
I meant to clear that up above, rape might work, but can be too easily confused with sex to make it work. And I know I'm strange! Thanks.

but it doesn't really have the emphatic violent undertone you're looking for.
But it is pretty ubiquitous in the way that fuck is, at least among Brits.

14. Doesn't "bloody" relate to menstration? |
|
I thought it did, this was why it was so bad, moving it into the sex/bodyparts category. If it doesn't, I've been way wrong on things before.
Someone today offered "bush" but I'd rather not hear that often, even as the explitive it is. Would work for violence category though.

15. At my old workplace, it was a faily sweary environment. |
|
"Fuck", and even its nastier counterpart "C**t", stopped having the expletive impact we wanted after a while. We found the best way to magnify their impact was to combine theme with inane words, so we strted shouting "fucksocks!" and "c**tymints!" and so on. It worked.
