  • You son of a mother! (Cursing, Creatively)

    I came across this brilliant little gem of creative cursing while reading Pratchett, where a person uses this because he is religiously forbidden to swear. I'm looking for other examples of such creative curses, which get the point across perfectly without sullying our own tongue, which you can use without stalling your passionate torrent of non-standard invective. I don't, however, want any actual curses to be used, as that would be against forum rules.

        "son of a mother" is actually an expression in Germany to deprecate another male, though you use a diminuitive for "son". It's supposed to hint at dependence and weakness.

                When I'm royally pissed off I use: "You know what, you're not my best best friend!"

                It strikes terror in the hearts of my enemies.

                  Around work, I'm famous for using Winnie-the-Pooh's "Oh bother!"

                  "Vermin!" is appropriately perjorative yet non-swearing.

                  And in rare instances, I paraphrase a line for The Prince and the Pauper: "I suggest you go home, fall down on your knees and pray to Lord God Almighty that he replace that stone in your chest with a human heart!"

                            seriously has everybody gone completely insane around here?

                            dark whispers, inane unlegible posts, ridiculous threads about nothing...

                            i am completely baffled and stupified beyond words at the moment.
