On the other hand, there aren’t many phrases that’ll cause someone who’s in the wrong to take a hard look at their behaviour like “are you ####ing (fill in the blank)?”

For example:

“We’re gonna drive 5,000km across country in vehicles that get 8 mpg that we already can’t afford to keep fuelled to blockade the Ambassador Bridge with bouncy castles and our own wives and children until the democratically elected head of the government steps down!”

Maybe coulda done with a few more folks asking the question.

Because alternative curses are fun and cute, but that’s just it. They’re dismissable.

You can’t yadda yadda an R-cusation like that. Especially knowing that it’s one of the few words most people universally agree you can’t (or at least shouldn’t) use.

But no river is so long as to not contain a bend.
This was a very subtly wise post. Thanks for sharing.
