New swear words for 2018

Post by big mervyn »

Never mind antibiotic resistance, we are rapidly running out of good swear words.

F*ck has totally lost it's impact, and 2017 has seen a spectacular desensitization to c*nt in the general populace.

Any suggestions? >#

Båstard too is old hat, indeed I recall my ould lad telling me decades back that you couldn’t help being a båstard but had to work at being a dastard.

The main problem is that dastard sounds far too acceptable so it requires some “decoration”, such as:

Bob Kearney is a dastardly cumbubble
Mike Brown is a dastardly fûckknuckle

As a kindly old lady who objected to us kicking fitba near her garden used to gulder “fûckawayoff round yer own door, ya wee shytes”. You see, you can work on a modern classic all your worth but you can’t bate a true classic.
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

I remember Podge 'n' Rodge, gentlemen farmer brothers, used to have a chat show on RTE. They ran a competition to find Ireland's favourite swear word. Surprisingly 'Yer Hole' came out top. For those unfamiliar with Podge 'n' Rodge: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NSaDSfBp7fM

It does depend on where you emphasise the ferocity in dictation of the word F.U.C.K. In my opinion you should be frothing on the F.
