This troper: I am going to RAPE you!
#104842
This Troper was on an evening trip in a rather unpleasant-looking little village. It took place in winter, so it was already dark despite being quite early so This Troper and her friend had to use a flashlight, which at one point failed. While This Troper panicked, the friend took the flashlight, examined it carefully and finally said 'It's fucked'.
#104843
This Troper recently heard a presion ''
G'' strike. It was said upon her brother's friend being told that the rosary he was making had the right number our father beads and that he was done. Cue him saying.
"Thank God!"
#104844
I do not remember how old I was at the time, but I remember being around 11 - 15 at a church for a youth event in the sanctuary that included several people including the guy that played Tommy on "Martin" and famed Gospel singer Kirk Franklin. Kirk Franklin said to the young girls there "If you're in the car with your boyfriend and he is listening to music with the words BITCH, and HO in them, and you're in the car with him, that man has no respect for you." He said it better than I did, and he was right.
#104845
After having some login-related issues on a fourm I started taking out my anger on the IRC chat. Ended up dropping the
"C-bomb" on someone who was making jokes about it, and that kinda ended badly. Now she's seriously broken up about it and won't give me the time of day. Moral here: Don't lash out at folks when you're having a bad day, make sure to call the admin first before you lose your temper, and it's never a good idea to drop certain words
EVER.
#104846
This troper has a friend that rarely curses, due to a mixture of being raised in a household where such language was taboo, and being generally quiet. However, after a night of no sleep because of a loud windstorm, not being able to complete any of his homework the previous day, and being bugged to hell by an ex-girlfriend of his, I told him that we had a test in the class we were in. His reaction? "FUCK!"
#104847
this troper has a friend who rarely ever curses because he feels it is not in the nature of good speech. Then recently his girlfriend broke up with him. And a short time later he posted on facebook that he was "fucking miserable". For him this is like screaming cunt out from the hilltops to a bunch of crowded people. Needless to say, I feel bad for the guy.
#104848
this troper has something similar, when swearing at someone he will show to emotion (well, maybe the look of go to hell and leave me alove, but thats my normal look (-_-)) when ou see him with emotions and swears, that means you sould be running -10 minutes from now, the last time i did this (in 5th grade) i was chaseing someone with a compass with the will to stab his eyes out then cut him to sushi.
#104849
This troper only swears when referencing media. Well, one evening, this troper (forthwith known as @/TropeyBoy) was with his friend, his sister, and his sister's friend who happens to be aforementioned friend's adopted sister. Anyway, as I said, I almost never swear. Now there were these really annoying bullies from aforementioned friend's school, and they were irritating us as much as humanly possible. They were agonizing me so much that I growled to my friend "They're all a bunch of a** holes." He then stared at me in shock and awe, and I almost grinned. I explained to him the next day why I swear rarely, because the effect is much stronger that way. (he doesn't swear ALL the time, but he does swear a good bit more than me) This troper also experienced 2 Crowning Moments of Awesome after that.
#104850
This troper plays Runescape. He had one day of membership (subscription) left, so he sold all of his member items and bought some very expensive armor with his new money.. The next day, when he withdrew his new armor and tried to put it on, the game wouldn't let him put it on. The armor was a members object. You can't sell or wear members objects without being on a member's world. Cue massive "FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!"
#104851
I was shopping at Barnes and Noble last night and sitting on a stool reading. All of the sudden, you know what I hear from the intercom? #QUOTE#"Attention all Barnes and Noble shoppers, go fuck yourselves".
#104852
That, my friend, is an official CrowningMomentOfFunny. ::Apparently some punks had found a way into the system. The staff didn't even seem so concerned about it.
#104853
This troper's
big sister usually gets the cluster-fuck moments; in contrast, I only swear under my breath and when no one else is around. That is, until this idiot and his friends decided to play keep away with a manga I was reading. I squared off in the guy's face, practically nose-to-nose with him and said: "People like you are so funny to me. You see me back here, minding my own business and you decide to mess with me just because I seem like the kind of person you can pull that crap on. Well, let me be the first and last to tell you: '''It ain't fuckin' happenin'''." Needless to say, I got my manga back and that guy generally avoids me now.
#104854
This troper's friend's professor's last words on the last day of a college class: "And, in conclusion... I'd like to fuck each and every one of you." (walks out)
#104855
Ditto that for me. Although I do have a tendency to loosen my tongue a little bit when I'm tired, but even then it's usually pretty mild.
#104856
It's been realized among @/DarkInsanity13's friends (and family, and friends of her brother) that if she says the F word, it's either a slip of the tongue (and you'd be able to tell), or that you have you run ''really'', '''really''' '''''fast'''''.
#104857
This troper is waiting for the exact right moment to use this.
#104858
As is this troper. A number of his friends have noted if they ever heard him drop an F-bomb they would ''run''.
#104859
If this troper swears in his native language, you better run. He swears a lot more when speaking in English tho, but even then he tends to save the F-bombs for when he's vary angry about something.
#104860
This troper has a friend who is exactly like that. It acts kind of like a warning alarm.
#104861
This troper went through most of her young life without swearing at all. From birth right up until the age of twelve, not a swearword crossed her lips. Which meant that she alarmed a bunch of "playmates" all the more when she swore at them in an attempt to make them go away. After that she went straight back to not swearing all the way up until just a few months ago in university, when standing with her friends outside of a notice board, they discovered that a misprint meant they had a week and a half LESS to complete everything than they thought they had. My selective choice of the S word may have earned a few "Wha--? You swore! ''You don't swear''!"'s from her friends, but it ''was'' very appropriate. According to some people, she ''does'' blaspheme a lot, though.
#104862
Sounds kind of like me. Unless you consider things like "oh my God" swearing, I just didn't swear. Now I've started using these words more and more, leaving some people(especilly old friends who has known me for some years) surprised.
#104864
This Troper primarily swears with a British accent, if even at all. So if you hear him drop a good old-fashioned American-made F-Bomb anywhere outside of here or 4chan, you can expect some TranquilFury to start raining down.
#104865
This troper almost ''never'' swears. When she does, though, it's a combination of this and SophisticatedAsHell.
#104866
This troper due to being a Bostonian and privately educated, uses "fuck" quite liberally. However, if something causes him to say, "Aw shit" then something just got ''real.''
#104867
This troper ''very'' seldom swears, and once recently a friend told me that she thought that I could never offend anyone. I responded by turning to the guy sat next to me (who hadn't been listening to the conversation) and told him that he was the c-word. He looked so hurt and dumbstruck that I immediately explained the context and apologised profusely, and have promised to interpret statements of this nature as compliments, not challenges, in the future.
#104868
This editor rarely swears in public, usually I hold my cool and be cold and
sarcastic when mocked. But once, when my class' {{Jerkass}} started to pick a fight with me, throwing the worst insult what he could think and after a while I decided that I had taken enough crap. I calmly turned to face him, looked him for a few secs and said: "What's your problem, you asshole? Seriously, who pissed to your bowl of cereals this morning? Shut the '''fuck''' up and for once do us a favor." It's quite obvious that he doesn't mock others anymore.
#104869
Today in this Troper's English class, the teacher was getting annoyed. One student was being too loud, so he was sent to the hall. Then another student did the same thing. (This Troper was being nice and quiet, reading the textbook.) After the teacher took said student out into the hallway (for a talk, probably), and the door closed, one other student (coincidentally, the first to get in trouble, who had come back in the room after ten minutes) said, "(Teacher Name) is on a fucking rampage!" 80% of the class burst out in laughter. Luckily, the teacher was halfway down the hall by then, and the laughter had subsided before he came back. It was the highlight of this Troper's school day. And possibly a
CrowningMomentofAwesome for the speaker.
#104870
This troper was always raised to regard excess swearing as rather silly looking, and as such, rarely swears. Yesterday someone hid her favorite hat. "Gimme my fucking hat back, you asshole!" quoth I. The person was in fear for his life. I got my hat. <3
#104871
This troper's high school theater did ''Glengarry Glen Ross'' one year for their fall drama. Needless to say, most of the substantial cursing had to be edited down a few notches, but they let the director leave one "fuck" in. And it was ''awesome''.
#104872
You mean
this 'Glengarry Glen Ross'? You mean you managed to turn a movie that's the equivalent of a
Big Ugly Fat Fucker full of ClusterFBomb carpetbombing into a Stealth Bomber? Damn, I would have been turning purple waiting for one of you to actually do a line right, or figuring out how you managed to censor it.
#104873
"Shut the fuck up. There are other guests here." This troper, to the guests next door, one night while she was staying in a hotel. It was midnight and they were being '''so''' loud...
#104874
As a hotel front desk agent, this troper applauds you for actually doing something about rather than just calling down to complain.
#104875
This is partially why this troper doesn't swear normally. He's glad to know it's a trope.
#104876
This troper had never realized that his father never used the F word until the day he used it to good effect.
#104877
This troper has a friend who ''never'' swears. She often even says Golly or Gosh instead of God. She reminds me constantly not to swear. One time, she was attempting to get in touch with her birth father, and was very excited about it. She had tried to get his phone number from the web for hours, and finally had it. When she called, it was a wrong number. I saw her mouth the word "fuck".
#104878
This troper has a tendency to swear by Eris when he does at all. For him to call out "God DAMNIT"... is both precedented and unfortunate for the object of his dislike.
#104879
For This Troper, ''SoulCalibur'' 3, and sometimes 4 and 2...and even 1 can make me scream the swear words like nobody's business. It doesn't help when I wake up my dad...
#104880
This Troper used it in a letter to the editor for his college's paper. The previous day, someone had written in a letter chastising the paper for printing a screenshot of a website that had the word "Fuck" in it. The website?
A page espousing the virtues of Anorexia and Bulimia. This troper's response letter pointed out, in so many words, that we're in college, and we should be more worried about the content of the page than the use of the word "Fuck." He considers it a crowning moment of good judgment that the paper did ''not'' edit the letter at all.
#104881
This troper has a friend who always laughs when I curse because she says I hardly ever do (untrue incidentally, I'm more of a Cluster F Bomb type, just not in front of her). But she's pointed it out so many times it's almost a game; I calculate swearing to have maximum effect and surprise. For instance, most recently we were discussing a friend who had gone to college and grown a mountain man beard. I said something about it's because he's on the West Coast. She asked "Why, what happens on the West Coast?" To which I replied in a deadpan "Crazy shit, man. Craaaazy shit." She couldn't stop laughing for five minutes.
#104882
This troper's grandfather, despite being a WWII vet, was careful never to swear in front of the grandkids. There were a couple of near misses, and he said "Holy sss''mokes''" a lot, but growing up I never heard a curseword from him. When I was thirteen he was dying and we went to visit him in the hospital. I heard him say the word fuck, just one time. That was the point I realized something was seriously wrong with him.
#104883
This Troper's grandpa is also a WWII vet. The worst I've ever heard him say is probably "damn it."
#104884
This troper heard his close friend drop an F-bomb for the first time a few days ago, albeit a whispered one.
#104885
This troper seldom uses anything worse than "crap" as an expletive. So one day, several years ago, when one of my friends was being irritatingly obnoxious, I told him to "Fuck off." The response: dead silence and stares of stunned disbelief. The person I said it to didn't say another word for at least ten minutes.
#104886
This troper is an inversion - she swears copiously and creatively in everyday life, but when things go really badly wrong she can never think of the right swearword for it.
#104887
This troper tosses around the occasional "fuck" for emphasis (living in Boston is one reason) but the first time she heard her mother utter the phrase "motherfucker" she was downright shocked. Sure, she'd heard the occasional "damn" "hell" and even "shit" but that was heavy artillery on the part of her mother.
#104888
This troper tries to keep her swears to languages that most do not understand expletives in. If she curses in English, you had better run.
#104889
This troper rarely drops the F bomb, but upon discovering that his new superintendent denied his orchestra a field trip to hershey park, he let out a loud ''' "FFFFFFUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCKKKKKKKK..." ''' in the middle of class, and everybody reacted as if he walked up and slapped each and every one of them in the face.
#104890
While most of this troper's water polo team throws "fuck" around like it's the word "and," our goalie ''never'' swears. That is, until yesterday, when she gave an outlet pass and threw the ball out of bounds, so it was a turnover. Just as it fell, she stared at it and said, very loudly, "FUCK."
#104891
The first time I heard my dad swear, I knew something was up. Also, I can toss around profanity as adjectives and nouns, but as exclamations they always seem to abandon me under actual stress. Which is why, when injured, rather than yelling "SHIT!" or "FUCK!" I'll shriek wordlessly, or, or some reason, yell "no!" I sound like a kindergarten teacher.
#104892
Are the "no"s
big, by any chance?
#104893
Back in this tropers school days, someone behind me was gently lifting my chair with their foot for several minutes while the teacher was talking to the whole class. Twice I had to stand up, much to the teacher's befuddlement. Eventually she asked me in an annoyed voice what the problem was. Reply, along the lines of "well someone's ''fucking'' kicking my chair, what am I supposed to do!". This reaction was understood a while later when I helped out as a classroom assistant and could see ''everything'' that was going on in the class. How teachers can possibly miss crap like this going on is a real BerserkButton for me.
#104894
Not sure if this counts, but this troper, otherwise abhorrent and entirely against cursing, occasionally shouts "Oh shite!" In an approriately semi-Irish accent.
#104895
This troper usually uses fairly mild swearwords, and not even that commonly. Any shout of more serious swearwords from me always hits home harder than many of my mates doing it. '''Precision''' F Strike is particularly true in my case, as the number of times I've used the word in my entire life doesn't even make it into double digits.
#104896
This troper never said anything worse than "damn" until one point in high school when she thought she'd managed to lose the small, expensive camera for the Video Production class. She said "Shit" very quietly and, coincidentally, found the camera immediately afterwards. Since then, she still doesn't swear much, and when she does it's pretty incoherent.
#104897
This troper is a cute young woman who puts up with lonely middle-aged men at her job every day (it's a library, you perverts). When one of my "fans" found me at a grocery and attempted to converse with me, he finally said, "Jeez, you're nice to me at the library." I responded, "It's my job, you fuck!" and continued with my grocery shopping.
#104898
This troper also worked at a library in his youth. In the IT department. The PUBLIC IT department. For over 5 years. So believe me when I say, I feel your pain. There were days I could only get by by subtly torturing the more emotionally-vulnerable library patrons in their times of distress (grade-making or grade-breaking report due next day, divorce/child-support/lawsuit papers NEEDING NEEDING OMFGNEEDING NOW to be finished, resumé for huge interview tomorrow...) and saying "Oh, dag-nabbit, those st00pid machines are at it again. Oh, gee, and we're closing in 5 minutes. Sorry!" The fact that we had GoBack (remember that one?) installed in such a fashion that even we couldn't reverse its changes made it a lot easier to get away with blaming the computer and having people believe me.
#104899
This troper does have somewhat of a mouth on him but back in high school he was pretty quiet. So naturally it came to as a shock one day in Environmental Science when after a lab was done, the teacher told everyone they couldn't leave until one item was found or else everyone would have points taken off. At that point, this troper exclaimed 'Someone find that damn [whatever the item was!]. Que the shocked look on the teacher's face.
#104900
Both My parents do this if they're mad. Though my dad only does it if he's talking to himself (and we usually hear it), while my mum only does it when she's talking to one of her children.
#104901
I cuss like a sailor on the internet, and in real life I'm fairly free with words like 'bugger', 'crap', 'sod', 'bollocks' etc. If I call someone a cunt though, I probably really, really hate them, and they should run. Especially if there's a 'fucking' on the front of that.
#104902
This troper does this, having learned it from his dad. It's usually an OhCrap notice for me, and my dad does when he's managed to injure himself without knowing it.
#104903
This troper rarely swears seriously, although occasionally I let loose a ClusterFBomb to throw off friends who are shocked at a 'shit' from me. I have a friend who is like a brother to me, and he likes a girl who stopped acknowledging his existence when she found out he liked her. This prompted me to refuse to call her anything other than the c-word. It is widely understood that I dislike that word. I also strongly dislike her.
#104904
I recently got kicked out of a group for the use of a precision F strike (a fairly deadpan delivery too), despite the fact that the majority of members think nothing to constant F bombing, often loudly and publicly. Think it was very much a case that the F word had much more impact coming from me, and showed how angry I was, than the far more common swearing (including the C word) from others.
#104905
When this troper was playing netball, a friend shot for the net and the ball bounced off and hit her on the forehead. To which, she replied "FFFUCK!". The gym teacher was not impressed.
#104906
This troper swears like a sailor, but out of habit never says "fuck" in the presence of his parents. When he ''does'' they know something is seriously wrong.
#104907
Subversion: This troper was playing Mario Party 8
with his girlfriend and a mutual friend. My girlfriend and I were on one team, the friend and a bot on the other. It's the second-to-last round, and the friend's team gets a star. #QUOTE#'''{{@/Hremsfeld}}:'''
"Fuck."
#104908
That was the first time they'd ever heard me swear '''at all,''' and the best/worst part? It just slipped out. The three of us had to stop playing because we were laughing too much from it. (My girlfriend and I ended up winning by stealing two stars with a candy.
#104909
This troper has sworn twice in her life. Both were when she was quite young and didn't know what the words were. After getting in trouble for it, she decided never to do it again. She won't even type the words. She fully plans to someday curse loudly in front of a large group of people who know about her 'no swearing ever' rule, just to see what they do.
#104910
Oh my goodness, this troper wants to do that too! She can't imagine their expressions, which will make it all the more hilarious. Maybe the end of senior year will suffice...
#104911
This trope swears alot, actually. He also comes up with threats for no reason out of nowhere because he can. One thing that he hates is that he has no control over his face, he is almost always smiling without realizing it. If he stops smiling and then swears. You're fucked.
#104912
This troper can throw F-bombs around like they're going out of style, jokingly insult people with varying degrees of vulgarity, but if I ever, EVER say that someone is "dead to me," shit just got real.
#104913
This troper can best be described as having Stress-Induced Tourettes. Being a fat nerd in high school, this means I swear a '''fucking''' lot of the '''fucking''' time.
#104914
This troper has only ever spoken the word "dammit" once in her entire life. The circumstances involved never being able to speak to her best friend again. The friend was actually quite impressed, although that was not the intent, because I radiate an almost
Aziraphale-esque lack of swearing. Of course, given the example in the main page, perhaps it was inevitable. Additionally, this is how she intends to use swearing in books when writing, because of the effect.
#104915
I don't know about F-bombs, This troper's S-bomb is very precise. Mostly they're less then a second before something unfortunate happens to me. If I start with the "Oh" I never have time to finish the "shi-".
#104916
Like many others, This Troper is very cautious around swear-words and it's generally hard to make him use them. But even when stressed, he never swears at anyone in particular: he does it to make fucking clear what his concerns about the situation at hand are.
Bonus points for swearing proficiently in English, German, and even Russian (depending on the mood).
#104917
This Troper will occasionally swear for lesser things ("Dammit!" "You Bastard!" "What the hell?" and very occasionally a "Shit!"). However, when I drop the F bomb, I am either absurdly mad at you, or something really, really bad just happened.
#104918
This troper never, ever, ever swears, even mildly. But she's a feminist, and one day, when she had been thinking about how a certain word is almost certain to be applied to any intelligent, proactive woman, she happened to hear someone she'd been arguing with refer to her as a "Dumb [aforementioned word]." Cue her spinning around to face him and snapping, "No, I'm a ''smart'' bitch."
#104919
As a fellow feminist (and a male one at that, down with double standards!) I congratulate you for delivering LaserGuidedKarma.
#104920
This troper has never intentionally sworn out loud.
Yet.
#104921
This troper uses damn and hell a lot, but going further requires intense anger or depression. The only people to hear me swear like that took steps backward in shock.
#104922
This troper is trying to break a habit of internal ClusterFBombs, but externally the F word is a rare thing. This led to the following dialogue with my
lunch group. #QUOTE# Troper:
Context context context '''
sex'''
context. #QUOTE# Fellow Ragtag Misfit: You know, I don't think I've ever heard troper say the word 'sex' before. #QUOTE# Troper: ''Fuck.'' HilarityEnsues. (I immediately passed it off as mentioning a seal in French, but still.) That is the one time I have used the F word out loud for anything other than serious situations. I also have a friend who Does. Not. Swear. Not as much of a PuritySue was some on this page, but serious language is rare. When she referred to herself as a bitch, the response was panic. (ThreeIsCompany.) Prior to that, she got results with a Precision H Strike - "Shut the hell up." This among a group of people where ClusterFBomb is the standard mode of speech.
#104923
This troper does not swear. She does not use 'Oh my God', preferring to say 'dear Mew' or something of the sort. She blames her parents. Her nine-year-old brother, on the other hand, likes to spit a string of curses into the talk function of his PlayStation3. He rarely, if ever, listens to her when she tells him to shut up and stop cursing. Finally, when she was waken up at six... #QUOTE# Magnezone: [calmly walks into brother's room and taps his shoulder] #QUOTE# Brother: [pauses, says 'hold on', and turns in his chair] (irritably) What? #QUOTE# Magnezone: (cheerily) Shut the hell up. 'Kay? Thanks. [walks out of the room, smiling]
#104924
I've been told that when I swear, it's a pretty good sign of something. Even though I do swear occasionaly...
#104925
The ''only'' person or thing in this entire universe or any other that causes me to swear is
my little sister, to my mother's and step-father's shock (and amusement).
#104926
YonTroper pretty much didn't swear for a while, but when he was eleven and a friend was being a really stupid JerkAss and he was irritated beyond endurance, he let loose with something along the lines of "FUCK SHIT COCKSUCKING TITS GODDAMN SHIT-EATING COCK". I swear only occasionally since then, but the JerkAss was suitably shocked.
#104927
This Troper and his group of friends were all surprised when a normally tacit friend simply replied, "Fuck," when another friend was describing their horrible day.
#104928
This Troper prefers
Unusual Euphemisms when swearing. When I switch to using F-bombs, something's about to go down, has gone horribly wrong, or I'm absolutely livid. It's also used as a ranging shot for a ClusterFBomb.
#104929
This Troper while riding home with his aunt and obnoxious uncle, was being pestered by him in a very annoying way, disrupting me from listening to mah m1dy, when I calm took my headphones off, looked him in the eyes and told him to "Shut the fuck up". this coming from a 14-year-old at the time,
Cue laughing from my aunt
#104930
Also one from my grandmother (who's kinda losing it, & is in a umm... I don't wanna say nursing home, it's something else). she was talking to my other aunt on the phone about something (can't remember what), and she said she'd be driving over to the house, cue this
Crowning moment of funny for the day. #QUOTE#Aunt: ...And how are you gonna get there? #QUOTE#Grandma: *awkward silence* ...Oh, SHIT...
#104931
this Troper never really swore during High school (with the exception of when I
swore right behind the dean and got away with it). During the last day of Math class someone wrote something on the board about me. #QUOTE#Me: "Motherfucker." #QUOTE#Stunned Classmate of the last three years. "Dude. I don't think I have ever heard you swear before."
#104932
This troper has a reputation for this sort of thing, mostly because I come off as a total goody-two-shoes. The best example was in middle school when I cursed out this boy that had been tormenting me since kindergarten. For the most part I still curse a lot less than other people I know, so people are still shocked. Makes it more fun. Hell, I once got a whole group of old friends up in arms because I said "shit." I was NINETEEN.
#104933
This Troper was in chemistry doing a reflux. I put stopper in by mistake so it exploded. Potassium manganate EVERYWHERE. Stunned silence followed interrupted by the following: #QUOTE#Me: "Fuck."
#104934
This troper used to curse liberally while on his early teens, until his uncle called him aside and told him that profanity loses its impact when overused and similarly when you reserve your curses for those moments when they are really necessary, they are a lot more powerful. I now teach my kids the same.
#104935
MutantRancor here. I managed to learn the same lesson without going through the "cursing liberally" stage. I have yet to have occasion for a PrecisionFStrike, but when I do it will be ''epic''. I've prepared a long string of curses in advance to throw at whoever causes the event.
#104936
ThisTroper swears fairly often, but is trying to get out of the habit. However, he's ''never'' sworn in front of his parents. It'll happen, I swear.
#104937
I swear the least among my class, which means each instance I swear is met with awe or uproarious laughter. I found myself on the receiving end back in December when I received a group message containing words that were meant to be directed at me. It wasn't anything harmful, but the fully-capitalized profanity towards the end of the message made it quite clear just how dead serious the situation was.
#104938
This troper generally is known as a
nice, even tempered person among her group of friends and haven't heard me swear much. Until we all sat down for a horror movie-marathon, and got to some ''really''
disturbing parts.
#104939
Strange enough, this troper uses shit and damn commonly with the F-bomb sprinkled in, but rarely uses the word 'asshole' other than to make points. #QUOTE# ... #QUOTE#"That is ''fucked up.''" #QUOTE#(Notable because afterwards they were more shocked at my statement than the actual movie.)
#104940
This troper has a noticeably upper class British accent, so when I swear it either sounds ridiculous or so damn funny. Once time when it was the latter, after I said the 'S' word very loudly within earshot of a teacher, said teacher found it too funny to tell me off! Another time was when I was two and got my skirt caught in a fence. Just imagine a two year old with a British accent going "It's these bastard steps!"
#104941
For the ''only'' time in this troper's life, he arrived to pick up some medicine for his mother. It was said it would be there on this day, but there was a mistake and not a single place had the medicine and I argued with the people there for 30 minutes. I was already going to be late for class. Then I realized I had taken the wrong way home and would now be ''45'' minutes late for class. For the only time in 20 years (my age), I, being alone in the car said, "Fuck!".
#104942
A friend of mine (
who probably doesn't/didn't think of me as a friend) didn't use ''any'' swearing at all - except once. After she was tired of my irritating, persistent, and obsessive behavior, she launched into a not-quite-furious tirade that nevertheless used "fucking" no less than three times. She doesn't talk to me anymore.
#104943
Very much true with me. I never swear, but because of my odd sense of humor, I often play jokes on my friends by pretending something awful has happened. Naturally, this bit me in the arse when something bad happened, and my friends thought I was kidding. It was only when I said,
"Fuck. Shit's getting worse," that they believed me.
#104944
It's because of this trope that @/{{dotchan}} tries to keep herself from swearing (though she's been slipping lately)--if ''
dotchan'' says a bad word, then shit has officially hit the fan.
#104945
If you ever hear me say the f-word, rest assured bad, bad, BAD things are going to happen (or have happened). Well, I wouldn't rest '''assured'''...
#104946
Played straight and subverted in my life. When I first dropped an F-bomb around my uncle (who'd never heard me swear and at the time it was a pretty vehement one) he looked at me and said "It's about time!" In highschool though it was so rare that it wasn't taken seriously and got the point where people would tell me "Don't do that. It doesn't sound right when you do it."
#104947
This troper almost never uses the f-word, though I slipped during the last 5 minutes of the first part of ''Series/DoctorWho: The End of Time''; with everything that happened in that short amount of time, my only words where "Holy fucking shit"
#104948
This troper virtually never swears, and especially not out loud. However, on a school trip last year, I was sitting next to one of my friends who enjoyed using people as punching bags (literally, he kept punching me in the arm/side). After this, and a wide assortment of other behaviors, went on for several hours consecutively (stupid 11 hour bus rides...), I finally snapped, and yelled, " ''Name!'' SON of a '''''BITCH!''''' Of course, this ''had'' to happen at the '''''exact same time''''' as a lull in the conversation. As a result, virtually the entire bus heard my outburst. There were a few moments of stunned silence, and then the '''entire''' bus burst out either laughing, shouting, or asking, "Wait, was that '''''Troper'''''???" I was horribly embarrassed for the rest of the bus ride. And, of course, word quickly spread to the other bus, so the entirety of the people there found out.
Great....
#104949
This troper's friends have lampshaded my tendency to do this on several occasions, especially during class. Fortunately for this troper, he times it well enough so that the teachers find it just as amusing as well, so pain generally does not ensue.
#104950
My sisters and I are not allowed to swear, and we usually follow the rules. My father mostly does not swear. My grandmother, who apparently used to swear
quite a bit tones it down for her grandkids. But my mother ''never'' swears. Then one day, when my sisters and I (none of whom were over 13) had been ignoring her telling us to clean up for about an hour, she unleashed a very loud, "I told you to clean this ''shit'' up, and you haven't been cleaning this ''shit'' up, but if you do not clean up this ''shit'' right this very minute, then '''''shit is going to hit the fan!'''''" The room was immaculate in under 5 minutes.
#104951
This troper, like many of the above, does not swear. Ever. When she begins to curse, you know that she is ''extremely'' upset and you better listen up.
#104952
This troper is very cautious about swearing and only does it with friends, when there is no chance of getting in trouble for it. If at school, she'll substitute with 'fudge' or 'shiz'. At home, 'crap'. I try to get in the habit of not swearing often so I don't slip up in front of my family. Needless to say, when one friend said something to me about my ex-girlfriend that struck the wrong nerve, said friend was very startled to have me turn around, get in her face and say "Mind your own goddamn business, you fuckin' nosy bitch!" It worked. For a while, at least.
#104953
This troper was on a trip to Kings Island amusement park with some friends back in 2004, and we went on an indoor rollercoaster that starts off by shooting you from zero to sixty in less than a second. I'm not much for rollercoasters and basically got tricked onto it, and when the thing stopped I yelled out "JESUS FUCKING CHRIST!!!!", temporarily forgetting that it was a public place. Fortunately I didn't get in trouble for it.
#104954
I (I hate using "This Troper") used to swear quite liberally, but have now vowed never to swear-and on the rare occasion that I do, to make it a
Precision F strike. It's going well so far.
#104955
"Buggerbuggerbugger" is this (American) troper's usual curse, but if you hear her use "shit" or "fuck"...
you should probably run.
#104956
This troper swears a fair bit but keeps it under control around his family. However, he has a Precision F-Strike scheduled for his 21st birthday, in the event that his mother chooses to tell a certain anecdote for the umpteenth time.
#104957
This troper was in his Video Film class the other day, and upon realizing that ALL of his footage from the past 3 grueling weeks of filming was completley deleted and gone, He (in the middle of a class yelled at the top of his lungs "FFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Needless to say, once the teacher realized what was happened, he was forgiven, although all of his classmates now compare him to rageguy
#104958
This troper had been annoyed by a real jackass all last school year. On the third-to-last day, on the bus, when he kept saying I effed my brother, I just went: "Would you shut the fuck up for once in your life?!" The whole bus was in shock, since I usually just ignored or tried to ignore the guy.
#104959
This Troper has never actually sworn before. Her friends think she's incapable of it. Because of this, a few of her band mates decided to try and make her swear by teasingly telling her to do a lot of things to them. Needless to say, it didn't work.
#104960
During high school, one of this troper's friends, a transfer student from another school, claimed the reason he rarely swore was to invoke this trope should the time come. We terrible kids from across town must've corrupted him because it degenerated to an InformedAttribute over the course of a couple months.
#104961
Subverted or something with me. When I was 11 years old, I fell off my bike and fractured my wrist. My dad has always insisted that my words when it happened were, "I broke my ''fucking'' arm!" but I honestly don't remember saying that.
#104962
This troper's (1st person mode: On) grandfather was never a very angry man, and my father only heard him curse twice before he died. One of these times was when someone attempted to hurt my (then ten year old) uncle. This person was first greeted with a "DON'T YOU LAY A GODDAMNED HAND ON MY SON!" and a very clear reminder a punch deliver by a
very angry father can break your jaw.
#104963
This troper had a reputation in high school for two things:
Mama Bear tendencies, and an impressive vocabulary. Most of her friends and teachers had believed her to be "above" swearing because of the latter, at least until the day she crossed a very narrow-minded individual who proceeded to attack her two best friends for being gay. The argument lasted a good twenty minutes until this troper very suddenly called her opponent a "fucking antidisestablishmentarianistic asshole!" The fight stopped just so I could prove that I had used the word in the proper context. I had.
#104964
For This Troper, it didn't exactly happen in real life. It happened when me and my friends were working on a scene for a play. We're on a talk show, I'm the guest and as a 'guest' I'm nervous as hell. #QUOTE# Troper: Umm... Is it alright if I, uh, smoke on stage? #QUOTE# 'Host': Oh, sorry, it's a PG program and we're on live television. #QUOTE# Troper: ... FUCK!
#104965
This troper was cast in a high school production of The Heidi Chronicles. (I was Peter, for those of you in the know). Anyway, one of my friends was cast as Fran, a feminist who was quite fond of the word fuck, so much so that literally her entire performance was a ClusterFBomb. Every "fuck" was changed to "frick" or "frickin'". I voted for "frakkin'". Anyway, it was our last show, Fran is only in one scene, and during a very dramatic, quiet moment, she changes just one frick back to fuck. Our director immediately stormed into the green room, asking if we had a plan to change back the dialogue. We didn't.
#104966
My english teacher who I have never heard swearing before said "fuck" one single time after getting the names of the names of two people confused. After having taught our class for one and a half years. He spoke very quiet though and apologized immediately afterwards. All of the class who head it were still laughing though.
#104967
This troper was sick the day our math teacher handed out a report due two weeks later worth 30 percent of our grade and no body bothered to tell me until the day before it was do. I worked on it from six till midnight, went to bed, then woke up at four to try to get it done the bus arrived at six. I finished at five but couldn't get it to print, so after my dad fixed that while I got ready for school. I was running late and when I got to the bus stop, I realized I forgot my glasses and my inhaler so I had to run back upstairs to our third floor apartment, grab my glasses and inhaler, and run back to the bus stop, where the bus was already there. I didn't say anything during this whole ordeal until some idiot on the bus tried to steal my inhaler (After I had used it at least). I grabbed it back and said quietly "Leave me the fuck alone". Since most of the kids on the bus were convinced I didn't even know any curse words, never mind actually use them, it was quite effective.
#104968
This Troper once asked his friends, "If someone asked if you swore, would saying "Fuck, no!" answer his question?" Hilarity did not ensue.
#104969
My dad's aunt was always the gentle, calm and collected type. Which made it very surprising when she began to swear, hearing that men in the family got drunk. That alone didn't come out of the blue but it contained the words "horse dick" in a rather ... unique context.
#104970
This Troper is a geek, high school techie and caddie, so I code switch a lot. When I'm with caddies, I swear my head off. When I'm with techies, I'll be a little forceful, but tend to hold my tongue. One day, I was stage manager for a show, and a particularly obnoxious techie was being incredibly loud during sound checks. Cue me turning around and yelling, "Shut the FUCK up!"
#104971
This Troper's father almost never swears. Almost never. He's always calm, and only loses his temper when things are really serious (
or he's talking to a phone solicitor), so this troper knew things weren't going well when his dad yelled "Fuck!". This troper's mom even pointed this out after an instance of "Shit!" years earlier.
#104972
This Troper has cursed audibly exactly /once/, and at that point it was in Italian when she was about 6 after her sister wouldn't stop bugging her until she said it, not even knowing what it meant. This Troper /does/, however, swear at times online. This usually comes in the form of "bloody", despite that she's American. (That's what you get for watching too much Doctor Who.) She also rle plays a lot online, and a few of her characters are British, so at times there'll be the occasional angry "bloody" or "sodding", but usually that's it. Then one day while role play she had to control
The Master for a few minutes in order to give instructions to the other character, the Doctor's son. Now the reason for these instructions is fairly complicated- it has to do with the Master's Chameleon Arch'd-since-two-minutes-old son having just opened the watch, etc. Anyway, This Troper was wondering how the Master would explain what to do. After a bit of thought, she eventually just went with, "I want you to fuck my son." According to the other role player, who is This Troper's best friend of about five years, claims that her jaw dropped, literally, at the fact she said that.
#104973
This Troper swears frequently, but my friends can tell I don't mean it because I usually smile while doing so. On the rare occassions I don't smile, they know the correct response is to back away slowly before running as far away as possible.
#104974
I have discovered my new catchphrase. After repudiating someone's arguments, point-by-point, on a forum, I ended with "quod erat demonstrandum, motherfucker". I actually got "mad props" for that one line. I now plan to use it every time I so annihilate an argument.
#104975
#QUOTE#'''Person 1:''' Oh bloody hell! #QUOTE#'''Person 2:''' Bloody, bloody hell! #QUOTE#'''Person 1:''' Don't you bloody start! #QUOTE#'''Person 2:''' Shut your bloody mouth! #QUOTE#'''Person 1:''' Don't you bloody talk to me like that you bloody idiot! #QUOTE#'''This Troper:''' Shut the fucking hell up. Both of you. Fuck.''
#104976
This Troper was rehersing a small group number for his school's musical. For whatever reason, we decided to record it because we thought we had it down pat. However, we messed up the ending, but the mess-up isn't what made it funny: It was the fact that just before the recording stopped, you could very clearly hear someone yell "''Fucking Christ!''".
#104977
At an arts camp this troper attended to study creative writing, every discipline gave a final performance on the last weekend, not only to other students but to the parents who had arrived to retrieve their children as well. This meant we had to be a little more careful about our word choices. When asked about swearing in our final performance, our counselor advised dryly, "Listen, kids. We don't say 'fuck' because we can. We don't say 'fuck' because we can't. We say 'fuck' because it's the right word to use at the time. You understand me? ''You fucking kids understand me?''"
#104978
Just remembered one from when I was about three. Apparently (I don't remember said incident, but my mum does), my mum once just avoided swearing, to which I said,
"Shit, mummy, shit." She didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Particularly noticeable in that my mum almost never swears (although my dad does about once a day).
#104979
During one period at my first job, I was usually coming in much earlier than I liked and staying extra hours. One day I finally snapped when asked when I was getting off (which was supposed to have been a couple hours prior), and said, "Who the fuck knows?" (I was TheQuietOne; at least two people asked "Did he just say...?") It was effective; I went home five minutes later and was working much better shifts not long after.
#104980
Being from New England, this Troper swears quite liberally, with F Bombs as he sees fit. However, when he uses the expletive "cunting" (as apposed to "fucking")...run. Fast.
#104981
At school, whenever someone hadn't done some homework, all you could hear was a massive "OH FUCK!"
#104982
This troper cusses frequently, but her guitar teacher never does except for the ''very'' occasional "pissed off." Then, one day, he said, "This guitar's all '''fucked''' up!" and she could immediately tell that he was very irritated. (The exact problem was that whenever one string was tuned properly, another would immediately go out of tune.)
#104983
This troper used to never swear. Then I went to high school and learned plenty of new, creative words, but very rarely used them. I'll happily dish out "crap," "bloody," "bugger," an occasional "damn" or "hell," but if I say "shit," it's bad. It's very bad. If I say "fuck"...it's on the scale of "I'm about to die" or "I'm about to kill you right now so shut up." Lucikly, I haven't had to resort to that very often.
#104984
I wrote a comment on youtube about an oppenents pokemon team and it ended like this " and finally, he is a noob not to have anything to counter a fucking fish"
#104985
I am rather temperate with my language when around other people (but indulge in {{ClusterFBomb}}ing when alone). Thus in colledge my group-mates used to say that when I do swear it sounds especially expressive and even cute.
#104986
In a college level creative writing class I attended, one of my classmates was reading a very symbolism heavy story along the lines of a creation myth. Trying to explain what he was trying to accomplish with the story, he proclaims his story "some very serious shit". Then he realized he'd said 'shit' in class, turned white (he was black), and said "Oh, fuck!". Luckily, the teacher was cool about it.
#104987
This Troper's mother and grandmother were having a normal conversation about work. Mom brought up the fact that a woman she works with has severe OCD, constantly rearranging everyone's things and never getting much done, and mentioned how tough it must be to struggle with something like that. Grandma waiting silently until she finished her story, then, completely nonchalant, replied, "Maybe she's just a bitch."
#104988
When I forget something important (Like a meeting, appointment, or thing I had to do), I calmly go 'Fuck' and then spend 5 minutes wondering if I can fix it. This also applies to when I have overslept, except I use 'shit' as well.
#104989
This troper rarely uses it, but when he does, the tone behind it is as important as the word I use. If I shout it, It means something's wrong, but it's not too serious. If I say it in a normal voice, it means the target of my voice should flee as fast as they physically can, If not faster.
#104990
This Troper has never said "fuck" on Twitter, unless in song lyrics. Recently, someone was harassing a friend of hers on DeviantArt and the Troper tweeted this: "Precision F-Strike example A: (link to profile) ban this fucker".
#104991
This normally stoic troper shocks people at school when he curses. odd because I consider myself a rather explicit person.
#104992
This Troper usually uses GoshDangitToHeck, and can only remember two real swears:
#104993
In MetroidPrime 2: Echoes, I cursed that goddamn
Emperor Ing.
#104994
In Homestuck, all I could say on seeing [=arachnidsGrip's=] crossing of the MoralEventHorizon was "That...that ''bitch''."
#104995
This troper is a LordOfTheRings CanonNazi. She also tends to use GoshDangitToHeck when displeased. During a marathon showing of all three extended editions of the films she criticised everything, much to the amusement and delight of her friends, who took every opportunity to tease her. Until Aragorn chopped off the Mouth of Sauron's head. Cue "What the ''FUCK''?!", screamed loudly enough to drown out everything else in the room. This time, there was ''no laughter''.
#104996
One of my friends, who for the most part was the voiceless (due to him not wanting to be ridiculed for his welsh accent) at school pulled a rather shocking one of these, when another one of our nakama was getting beaten up and the rest of us were unable to help, he just pulled a baseball bat out of his bag, said "fuck it", (the first time I had heard him speak, incidently) and prompty, smashed the glass partitions, and went to our friends aid.
#104997
This Troper has a pretty bad mouth at home, and doesn't swear much in school, but at one point she had her backpack stuck in her locker, effectively jamming the locker door and preventing me from leaving in time to catch the bus without my books. I tried redialing the combination and pulling on the backpack for about 2 minutes before looking up just in time to see the busses pulling out. I dropped the straps, leaned back and kicked my locker as hard as I could, screaming, "FUCK!!" And my locker opened. At that precise moment, one of my friends walked by. He'd never heard me swear up until that point, and he stoped dead in he hallway and burst out laughing for a good 30 seconds while I BSOD'd. Since then, it's become an in-joke with several of my friends.
#104998
This Troper made one two days prior to this writing. He was in theatre class at high school, and had just found out that he had a schedule mixup, and that all of his classes were changed to different ones, effective immediately. I was so frustrated that I just let out a loud, annoyed, distressed "''FUCK!!''"
#105000
This troper's
Economics teacher delivered one today in class, when she called several members of the class "douchebags".
#105001
This troper's father will never swear. Ever. He's a very hardcore conservative Christian. So, when we had a really bad snowstorm, we got a big block of icicles hanging off of our roof. One day, we heard a massive "CRASH and went outside to survey the damage. It had fallen right on top of our grill, which was now literally in pieces all over the deck. We both stared in silence a moment, and my father uttered a very profound "Fuck."
#105002
I barely ever swear. ''Not'' because I don't want to, as I honestly don't understand the taboo against using certain words, and why they should be considered any different from
other words that mean the exact same thing. Not because I don't feel I need to, as I am very cynical and have plenty of reasons for ''wanting'' to swear. No, my reason for a lack of swearing is mostly because I don't want to hear a lecture from someone about how I need to "watch my mouth" or whatever. In fact, when someone compliments me on having a clean vocabulary, I actually go out of my way and explain to them that the only reason I'm not swearing is to avoid having to put up with complaints. Usually, I only swear when I'm alone around people who I know well enough to know that they won't mind. That being said.....recently, at a crowded concert, I bought a drink and tried to push through the crowd with it, and while making my way down the stairs I slipped and slid down, landing flat on my back and pouring the whole drink down my shirt in the process. My reaction was a very loud "''OH FUCK!''"
#105003
This troper is in middle school. There are two types of people at my school: the swearers and the non-swearers. Now, there is a kid, who in my 6th (I think) period, told me to rap the first verse of Love the Way you Lie. I did, but RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE TEACHER, I SAY: "...she FUCKin' hates me, and I love it! Wait!"! OMG. The kid went wide-eyed.
#105004
@/{{Excel-2010}}. I make it a point to never swear unless absolutely necessary. Instead, mostly as a challenge to myself,
I find ways around swearing by coming up with inoffensive phrases that adequately express my disappointment at my current situation. Outside from quoting movies and reading scripts or books, the only time I ever swore on purpose is for a speech in public speaking class. I opened it like I was about to launch into a discussion of the prevalent trends in pop culture in my introduction, then after a beat, shouted "What the hell is wrong with you?" at the top of my voice. After another beat, I took my seat. I never learned what grade I got for that, but it was worth it.
#105005
This Troper has uttered exactly three strong swear words in her entire life. The first time, she dropped the F bomb to emphasize that stuff was going wrong. The second time, she used the S word instead of "crap" in "holy crap" when told of something life-changing. The third time, she dropped the F bomb to make a point about the utter wrongness of sexism.
#105006
This Troper's grandpa was quite fond of "goddamn," "son of a bitch," and "jackass." Nothing harder than that until we were helping out on my uncle's property. Uncle and grandpa were chopping down a big Douglas Fir while Aunt, Mom, Sis, and me were having lunch. We hear my grandpa yell "Oh, SHIT!" Mom and Aunt ''immediately'' grab us girls and start running. The rather large Douglas Fir crashed about a meter shy of our picnic table.
#105007
Troper's twin has one of her own. Compared to the rest of the stagehands, she swore infrequently. One day, she was up in the highest part of the rigging, placing counterweights on the batons to off-set some stage lights. The weight fell, pinching her finger between it and the rigging, smashing her finger and giving her the mother of all blood blisters. She dropped the weight while screaming an F-bomb at the top of her lungs. ''Everyone'' scattered, and the weight's impact left a permanent dent in the stage's flooring. The teacher, bless him, explained that everyone heard the PrecisionFStrike and ran because she was always the type to swear in context. He kept the dent in the stage as a teaching example of WHY you clear out from the rigging areas while people are up top handling weights and took great delight in telling aberrant actors and dancers the dent could be their heads.
#105008
This troper's
Precision F Strikes rarely get past "Fuuu"; but dropping her already damaged DSLite, causing the hinge to fall out of the already-made hole (leaving the top screen hanging by only copper wires on the other side), as well as loosening the game I was playing (causing it to freeze and making me lose a good bit of training) was enough for this troper to play it straight.
#105009
This troper played this to it's straightest ever, not only using F, but B and S also. It went something like this: ->Me: If you don't stop that, I will force you to f*ck your own sh*t, you little b*tch.
#105010
This Troper consciously tries not to swear, not because she finds it offensive, but because she wants to be able to invoke this trope. People who swear all the time never make an impression with their cursing, but when the one who never swears develops a potty mouth? ''Watch out.''
#105011
When @/DesertDragon was taking Driver's Ed, this girl was behind the wheel at the time and was making a lot of mistakes that the teacher was calling her out on. Then the girl blurted out, "I don't know these fucking streets!" The teacher, a DeadpanSnarker but still an older lady whom you don't expect to swear, calmy replied, "First of all honey, I'm pretty sure these streets don't fuck. Now calm down, and let's take it slow." As you can imagine, the girl made way fewer mistakes from then on. That teacher always was one of my favorites.
#105012
I generally dissolve into angrish with the exception of that one game that makes me take the kids gloves off and start with a steady stream of F-Bombs about a minute apart from one another. That game is CaveStory.
#105013
Not this Troper, but this troper's boss. Said boss is a middle aged Mexican man who's generally very calm and often has to tell LowEndLem to stop swearing. During one day when we were loading a guy's couch and he was freaking out on us because of the snow, best exchange ever.
#105014
Guy: Could you take any longer, it's goddamned freezing! #QUOTE#Coworker: Dude, calm dow- #QUOTE#Guy: No! It's cold and I want my fucking couch and you two are too fucking incompetent to do anything! #QUOTE#Boss: Ese, shut the fuck up, they're new and you're being kind of a prick. Wait in your car if you're so cold. *beat* Also sign here.
#105015
Probably the best thing I've heard since I started there.
#105016
This troper's family usually don't swear so excessively, we don't speak in the Queen's English or anywhere close to it but this was a
somewhat out of character moment, even for us. This troper had one of these moments in the past few minutes and his first instinct was to post it here. We suddenly had a black out, and just for the lulz, I asked my dad whether we had parallel or series circuits, not that I know anything about it. Then the following conversation / karaoke of Bodies by the Sex Pistols. #QUOTE#Dad: What the fuck are you, an electrician? #QUOTE#Me: I dropped out to pursue a career in punk rock instead. #QUOTE#Dad: Fuck this, and fuck that! #QUOTE#Me: Fuck it all and fuck a fucking brat! #QUOTE#Dad: Bodies!!! I'm not an animal! #QUOTE#Mum: You're a fuck-wit.
#105017
This Troper is a rather interesting case in the swearing and general precision of those swears. The lighter swears up to 'shit' are tossed around liberally, and even the F-Bomb is used as a "sentence enhancer". There are times, however, through subtle use of disturbingly calm tone, manipulation of vocabulary, stance, and glaring in which I'll liberally use more sophisticated dialect to either psychologically sunder my foe a structurally superfluous new one, or simply threaten he's approaching the limit of my FUCKING patience. It takes some serious dicking around to get me to this.
#105018
This Troper rarely swears. When I do it's only when I am
FUCKING PISSED. Of course, I am regularly...
#105019
This Troper was always a couple of years younger than the rest of his year level at school, and was always seen as the quiet, reserved one. So obviously, he copped a lot of flak along the lines of "Hey, I've never heard you swear." My response? "Oh, yeah, I swear all the fucking time."

This Troper never swore at school much unless she was joking around with friends. But one day, I was going to my English class in a VERY pissed off mood. I was downright seething over a fight I'd had with a friend. We were going over Hamlet, and my teacher asked my opinion on whether I thought Claudius or Hamlet had more blame on their shoulders for Ophelia's madness and eventual suicide, and before I even realized what I was saying, I said "Well, since Claudius was the goddamn king, you'd think he would have noticed something before she went BATSHIT INSANE." My class was pretty shocked, since I'm usually a straight-edge quiet kid. I profusely apologized to my teacher who, bless his soul, just shrugged and said "We're all big kids here."

Around some of his close friends, this troper does ClusterFBomb a lot and says "fuck" and/or "bitch" about every other word, but around most other people he does not swear loudly in
English very much, but when he does they are really shocked, of course they are usually
Precision Cluster F Bombs.

This (British) troper works with young children, so will usual express displeasure or annoyance with "Goodness me!" or "Oh ''dear''!" A colleague and I were doing paperwork in the office (out of the earshot of any children in the building) and listening to the radio.
Matt Cardle's
cover of 'Many Of Horror' by Biffy Clyro began to play. This troper: "Oh, '''FUCK OFF'''!!" Her colleague, having never heard her swear before, was equally shocked and amused.

Averted by this Troper. His reaction to the curb stomp scene in AmericanHistoryX: "That was ''unpleasant''." His reaction to every one of his worst faults being pointed out before getting kicked out of his apartment by people he thought were his best friends: "You're ''not nice''."

This Troper (a PC user) was having issues with her school's Macintosh laptops. After telling a teacher the "gosh-darned mactops need drop-kicking out a window", she was told by her teacher to "swear at it as much as you like. It normally makes them work." Being the quiet person that nobody has heard swear, the entire class cracked up as she quickly yelled "SHITPISSFUCK" at the laptop. It worked.

This troper won a fight by yelling "Fucknuckle" and then slapping his opponent in the face and
tripping them.

This troper was once ranting to friend of hers about another "friend" in one of her classes, who is easily the most annoying person she has ever met. (Violent, cynical, he swears constantly, he makes everything into a double entendre and frequently talks about sex, and he thinks that I'm "too innocent" because I'm not just like him. At the same time, I feel sorry for him, because I'm certain he's quite mentally ill.) Now, during this entire conversation with my aforementioned friend, I had been pulling CrossesTheLineTwice moments left and right while laughing uncontrollably the whole time, which surprised her, as I am normally thought of as sweet and wholesome and reserved (and I am, but people also tend to think that I am painfully naive and sheltered, which I'm not). So, during my tirade, I described this kid as a "bastard," and instantly regretted it when I saw the girl's shocked and not-so-amused face afterward. I kept on apologizing and telling her that I went too far and that I normally never say anything like that, and I felt like I needed to rinse my mouth out with soap. In my next class, I even consulted my nearby classmates about it, and they were all just as stunned. And worse still, I know for a fact that the kid I was talking about in the first place
would have approved of me swearing! It's been a whole weekend since it happened, and I still feel absolutely horrible for ruining my own good image...

This troper is actually a strange subversion of the ClusterFBomb at times. He will use several swears at times, the three exceptions being
that one word that starts with a C, the actual F word, and "G**damn." After this troper's senior year of college, he and his roommate moved into a small townhome not far from campus based on an agreement they had with another student. Right after July 4th hit (literally, it was July 5th) a rather large real estate agent nicknamed
'Moose' showed up (this troper's roommate had gone to get groceries) and essentially told us that they were in the townhosue illegally because the guy they had subleased it from was not supposed to sublease it without the landlord's permission. Long story short, the landlord saw us as squatters and
was going to call the cops to clean us out unless we were gone by dawn. So this troper's roommate (and very close friend) came back to the house, and at this point this troper (known for having a bit of a HairTriggerTemper anyway) was
boiling mad. Troper's roommate noticed it and asked what was wrong. Troper responded by chucking his phone into a wall and channeling NicolasCage from Deadfall: '''THAT FUCKER JUST FUCKED US!'''

I've witnessed this a good number of times at school, but only two examples really stand out.
#105030
The first one happened in freshman year, when our resident Mr. NiceGuy finally got fed up with all the noise in our classroom and yelled out "F***, shut up!" Of course, after a moment of stunned silence, everyone burst into laughter.
#105031
The second one was
not so funny. Someone had fabricated and relayed an awful rumor about me to my LoveInterest, who is a generally sweet NiceGuy. The results were very
unpretty.
#105032
This Troper has an...amusing example from a recent event. He, and his friend, were watching {{Inception}} for the first time, in IMAX, no less. Following the
end of the film, as the screen faded to black, this Troper, instinctively let out a "
What the FUCK was that?? The friend this Troper was with considered it a CrowningMomentOfFunny.
#105033
In Chemistry, the day before finals, one of this Troper's friends found a mysterious box with what looked like a small volumetric flask (like about 1 mL) nearly filled with water inside it. Said friend then read the instructions contained within the box. It was a "candle bomb", a little capsule of water which would explode when heated gradually. Her response? "That is fucking awesome!"
#105034
Then came the actual test of the candle bomb. The entire class (only about ten kids, plus the teacher) watched from a safe distance — and behind glass — as a couple of tiny candles heated the thing for ten... twenty... thirty seconds. Then came the explosion. It was louder than anyone expected, almost like thunder. The teacher screamed like she was five years old instead of fifty, while another one of my classmates could only muster an almost-calm-sounding "Shit." We all agreed it was both the most awesome and funniest moment of the year.
#105035
I planted one of these when I figured out a certain drama llama on a bunch of roleplay forums I frequent joined my brand new board when I did not want any drama on that site. Cue me, after hearing the news, giving this reaction: #QUOTE#'''Friend''': Please oh please tell me *so-and-so* didn't join as
Ichigo. ;; #QUOTE#'''Me''': I-I don't know. #QUOTE#*checks* #QUOTE# #QUOTE# #QUOTE#... #QUOTE# #QUOTE# #QUOTE#FUCK ME.
#105036
This Troper occasionally drops these when my Gamecube games fail on me. It. Happens. A LOT.
#105037
When I was younger and innocent I rarely ever swore mainly because I was taught by my parents that you shouldn't say swear words to people, that is until middle school where most of my innocence was taken and I was constantly bullied by needlessly cruel older kids and after a time I realized how lame my comebacks to their insults were and they pushed me too far and I realized the more that I swore at them the less they picked on me, these days I curse every now and then mainly out of anger and I clean up my language when around kids, but generally people are shocked when I swear in front of them.
#105038
Any swear word that comes out of This Troper's mouth counts as this. While she can no longer claim to have said less swear words than she can count on one hand due to some pretty bad circumstances that basically caused the only ClusterFBomb she has ever been responsible for (which actually combined the two tropes), she normally takes self-censorship very, ''very'' seriously and refuses to say anything worse than "hell," and even that one isn't dropped lightly. Her usual rant patterns include lots of GoshDangItToHeck. If she drops an F-bomb, you know something bad is going down.
#105039
This Troper just let loose one in front of his twin brother after being informed of a HarryPotter event happening sooner than he expected. #QUOTE#This Troper's Brother: "We'll be reprising our roles as Fred and George on friday." #QUOTE# This Troper: "What the fuck?!"
