Favourite word for when bad fortune occurs

[HEyHEY]

It's only fair.

[blondeatlast]

1. Fudge!

I have a six year old and I am proud to say, he generally says "fudge" too!

[HEyHEY]

2. Sure when you're around...

;-) actaully I remember when I was really young...we never swore even when mom and dad weren't around. Then I hit ten and discovered the beauty of profanity

[pink_poodle]

3. I use "shyte" because I'm Scottish, but "Fuck's sake" will.......

do nicely too. hee hee

[SiobhanClancy]

4. Jesus,Mary and St. Joseph..

I get the whole family in there that way...sometimes even HOLY St. Joseph:)

[HEyHEY]

5. Or "Faith and begorrah" (sp)

Grandparents used it.

[Robb]

6. "In the Love Grass"

My father-in-law brought this one back from Scotland. While golfing, his caddy called the unkept grass outside the rough the "love grass".

Obligingly, my father-in-law said "Why do you call it that?"

"Because," said the caddy, "Hit it over there and you're fucked for sure."

:)

[eileen_d]

13. OMG it's a little Bongo icon!

:loveya:

[Robb]

14. Just goes to show ya

If you whine loud enough, fiddle around on Photoshop for an hour or three, whine some more, then whine some more -- well, anything can happen! God bless America! :silly:

I'm just delighted Skinner knew what a "Bongo" was...!

[patdem]

7. Me too....Jesus, Mary and Joseph...( I leave out the St.) Catholic?

[ironflange]

8. Oh phooey!

Oh god damned shit piss motherf*cking phooey!

[ComerPerro]

9. So does this mean I need to get counciling?

I don't see anything wrong with my phrase of choice.

[CO Liberal]

10. Factoid

All commercial airline pilots and air traffic controllers speak English, so their are no language barriers. And when they play back the voice recorders "black box" after plane crashes, mor often than not the final words on the tape are "Oh, Shit!!!"

:-)

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

15. An even more obscure factoid... the very first fatality of an airplane

Said "Shit!" As he and Orville Wright lost control of their plane and crashed. Orville would not say publically what Lt. Thomas Selfridge had uttered other than "Oh,... Oh!"
My grandfather, however, worked for the Wrights several years later and said that with the proper lubrication, Orville would tell the real story of the death of the US Military's first pilot, and aviation's first victim.

BTW, Selfridge was a very sharp officer, and related to several flag officers in the Army and Navy, probably would have been a major player in WWII had he lived.

[theorist]

11. Usually just fuck,

sometimes shite (not Scottish, though).

[VOX]

17. I deploy "fuck" in the face of misfortune, too. Call me a traditionalist..

It's short, it's blunt, it helps you maintain a shred of sanity when all goes down the crapper.

:toast:

[eileen_d]

12. Shitsticks!

And other variations on the "shit" theme...

[Spider Jerusalem]

16. Usually, a good, hearty "bloody hell!"

I'm quite fond of the word "bloody"...one of my favourite swear words...right up there with the ever-popular "fuck"...

[Deja Q]

18. "Oh applesauce!"

Well, I NEVER swear!

In public, of course... In DU Bush exceeds the integrity of my politeness chip... :D

[ikojo]

19. I think I may have heard this on the Sopranos but

not sure but it's Mother of F**k...or perhaps on the show they say Motherless F**k but anyway when I say it, it comes out Mother of F**k.

[Guaranteed]

20. "GOD DAMMIT!"

I say it at least a couple of times a day. It's a horrible addiction.

I think I picked it up from my step-father. He used to say it, too, when he dropped something or hurt himself on accident.

I just say it when I'm frustrated.

On edit: And if I'm REALLY pissed, it's GOD-FUCKING-DAMMIT!!

[put out]

21. My Bad Words.

S. O. D. Shit, Oh Dear. Contributed by my sainted mother, who is still alive.

Razzafratz. You can say it loud, especially if you are around children. I have better things, too, but I am a novice.

[FDRrocks]

22. I usually pull

A 'fucking-a' in most circumstances. In instances where I get hurt badly I have been known to shout 'God-fucking-damnit'!

[shanti]

23. bumba claat or rassss claaat!!!!

(picked them up from my ex bf), also a hearty "MOTHAFUCKA" works wonders :D

[Catshrink]

24. Now that I work with children I'm trying to clean up my potty mouth

so, I usually say Crap these days. Sometimes "shit" pops out though.

[Endangered Specie]

25. "Bloody Hell!" and "Scheisse!"

are favorites of mine, I like to use foreign expressions more.

Dadgommit is a good one too

SOmetimes I will simply yell out in fake German

[Swede]

26. Shitpissfuck!

[JohnKleeb]

27. Fuck or Goddamn it

[Castilleja]

28. Voted for

God Dammit, but we learned "Scheisse!" from my husband's uncle in Germany, among other fun words. My son also enjoys that one!
*I forgot "hijo le!"

[onebigbadwulf]

29. Mother of Fuck!

[Dogmudgeon]

30. Odd's Wucks an' Tar!

That and "Lord Love a Duck!" get me through a lot these days.

So does "Sweet Jesus Malone!"

--bkl

[Search Party]

31. Jesus Harold Christ!

n/t

[nickgutierrez]

32. "Oh, you bastard(s)"

Useful for when you don't actually want to swear.

Other good ones:

"You fucking guy"
"You piece of shit!!!" (w/ slight crescendo)

But sometimes, a simple "DAMMIT" gets the job done just fine.

[CandyCrim21]

33. No matter what I chose.......

Nine times out of ten, the phrase always has fuck involved. Especially if I get really mad. Or Bitch too. I really like to use that word. LOL

[ohiosmith]

34. "fuck me!"

[Guaranteed]

37. I like that one too...

I use it when I'm feeling more shocked than anything else.

[Lizz612]

35. F8ck when I'm really in pain

When I'm actualy in pain "fuck" over and over. But when swearing to emphasise things usualy "shit."
At catholic school we got creative. "Jebus" was very popular, as were "bugger" and "bloody." I was known to say "buga-BOO!"
I had a teacher last year who said "shhhhh- uger" whenever something went missing.

[KamaAina]

36. Bushit!

We all know where most of the bad fortune comes from, now don't we?
