I mean really Hmm.

"Oh, sugar"... Just say "Shit" - its so much better.

And "Flips sake" is nowhere near as satisfying as "Fucks sake!".

You'll thank me for it.

Bastards.

AgentZigzag · 24/05/2013 23:12

Aye, nowt like a good swear.

I just presume they've come over from the glittery NM side and feel a bit naughty doing it in public.

I heard somebody say "drat" recently. But retro.

AudrinaAdare · 24/05/2013 23:12

YANBU, but how do you smite them?

MrsVamos · 24/05/2013 23:12

Is it to lay waste, in a biblical sense but not quite in that biblical sense?

Salmotrutta · 24/05/2013 23:12

Pigsmummy · 24/05/2013 23:13

"smite" wtf

LineRunner · 24/05/2013 23:13

Crikey is my best word. So fuck you.

FunnysInLaJardin · 24/05/2013 23:13

are there folk here saying sugar then? A woman I used to work with used to say 'oh yabba dabba do' as a swear word. I mean FFS, really?

Salmotrutta · 24/05/2013 23:13

Smite.

A tucking good word IMHO.

And very underused.

Bollocks. One of my favourite words. How to sum up a day, activity or anything else thats gone wrong in one go!

FunnysInLaJardin · 24/05/2013 23:13

Crikes is quite good

InLoveWithDavidTennant · 24/05/2013 23:13

yabu i dont like swearing and wont change just to please you

Hmm
GeorgianMumto5 · 24/05/2013 23:13

Yabu because you used the word smite and that made me laugh.

Yanbu because I work with children and, 'Fucksake! Sit down and listen!' is frowned upon. Creative non-swearing is the way forward.

MrsVamos · 24/05/2013 23:14

Drat ? Is that a new rapper or someone ?

gordyslovesheep · 24/05/2013 23:14

yes - smite them - the fucking wank monkeys

coffeeinbed · 24/05/2013 23:14

People say sugar.
And fudge

Salmotrutta · 24/05/2013 23:15

tucking????

WTF - I meant fucking.

Bastard autocorrect.
