I went to the site mentioned by Dogof War in the morally corrupt thread (http://www.capalert.com/) to check the movie reviews and after laughing quite a bit I started wondering about the euphemism sentence the most foul of the foul words. What are they referring to?

As a Spaniard I´m very used to curse words after all it´s a daily occurrence in normal Spanish so having a huge imagination and background in curses I´m having trouble guessing which one is the most foul. Is it the sexual act reference word? the not so nice word to say about girls bodily excreta reference Choices, choices, so many choices. (yay! love the euphemisms!)

So Dakka what´s the most foul of the foul words to you? (using an euphemism to avoid breaking Dakka rules ofc )

Rabbit digging a tunnel.

I don't get it.

A cookie for cheese elemental!

But if it´s really that I´m very disappointed, I was hoping for a more exotic curse than the old sexual intercourse one

The most foul of the foul wouldnt be said in english i think.

Oh, well in Australia you have to curse in every sentence if you're a bogan, and 'spanker' must be used on a 5:1 ratio with 'Intercourse' and 'Female Genitals'.

The word used here in the US to degrade gay people.
I understand the word in the UK means a cigarette or at least it used too. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm incorrect.

Other than that, I don't find words offensive, even swear words. They're just words to me.

Here in North America, there are varying opinions on 'most foul'. Some people say it starts with f and rhymes with truck, while others get much more worked up about a certain word that rhymes with 'punt'.

Yeah thats pretty bad. I had an ex whos abusive step father used to call her that. So i guess that one hits close to home for me.

I find getting called an ignorant Hole-in-the-rear pretty insulting when it refers to my belief in a God, but that's personal.

You lost me again.

There is a phrase in Chinese that roughly translated means "May your mothers Uterus ulser and fill with maggots"

I would say thats pretty harsh.

Ah, but Chinese has many such colourful phrases.

I actually find people insulting my mother extremely infuriating, and I've gotten into fights becuse of it.

Yo mama.

Dear Falconlance,
I am a nerd with limited perception, and I am unable to tell that you are trolling me. I therefore politely request that you find your nearest friendly cliff and step off it, ending your current state of existence.
Yours sincerely,
Cheese.

Many people think i dont swear because im well behaved.
They cant be more wrong , i dont swear because i cant find words in english to convey what i really want to say.

Like a few have mentioned , asian foul words are very complex , usually on-topic straight to the point ( refined i might say )
Not the usual " f you , f *** s**** *** that can be applied to everything ( which ends up as you know , pretty much lost its meaning
to the point that no one really care anymore even if its used )

The word I have found is most offensive is this:
Capslock Uppercut Nurgle Trenchcoat

Seriously, I have had a knife thrown at me by a woman I (in the heat of the moment) mistakenly called that foul four letter word...

If someone insults a Polynesian's mother, stand back because someone's going to Hell the hard way by getting knocked through the Earth. The Island boys are pretty old school about a lot of things and play a rough game.

I find parkour pretty offensive.

Why? its just an insult. It affects you if you let it. People insult my mom all the time I dont care. Insults are a bundle of words you put the meaning in them.

Apparently Muslims are really tough about it too. During my Society and History class, we had two boys in my grade come in to talk about their religion (Islam), and when we asked them about their values and beliefs, it came around to insults. In western society, we hear Your Mother insults/jokes get thrown around all the time, but when they came here and heard them, they were really shocked and thought nobody respected anyone else around here.

i don't know if there is any word "most foul" there all just words.

True that. But then again, out here you get into fights over anything.

2 DOLLAR'S

Of course whatever happens to someone that insults anyone from a race which on average produces people who look like they could rip a bus in half is merely a case of the gene pool being cleansed of stupidity.

A couple of mates almost came to blow over whether domestic cats were the same species as feral cats.

I did come to blows about an argument over whether golden syrup was better than honey for pouring on porridge.

Aren't feral cats the same species as domestic cats by definition?
