Anoyone got any phrases they use too much?

Mine seems to be 'f*cking b*llox', which is not a great thing when my 3 year old daughter repeats it at nursery!

"Go and p*ss up a rope, ****stick." Don't know where that comes from.

"Never nudge yer Granny when she's shaving". From Mike Harding.
First thing that comes into my head when anyone asks for advice.

neverfastenuff - thats one of mine too. As my wife pointed out when my 4 year old started repeating it at every available opportunity.

Also: "I'd rather remove my own kidney's with a teaspoon". Used pretty much every time anyone asks me to do something

Strange though it may be (going from the 'calling someone gay' thread) my phrase is:

soapytit****

Dunno why, it always appears humorous to me!

"w@nk fackin tastic" - accidently left this as a comment in some source code I submitted and almost got a module failed when I was at uni 😕

"you can take your <blank> and shove it up your boll0cks, mate" - I find the glimmer of confusion on their face as they try to parse 'up your bollocks' most amusing

I to am partial to "soapytit****" it just rolls off the tongue.

'knickers' is my work expletive.

During a lull in phone conversations my friend and I often have the exchange:
Me: "ho hum"
Them: "indeed"

Or vice versa.

Perennial favourite is "Everything's idiot-proof until they hand me a better idiot"

Although recent expletive has been "Holy Mackerel!" (usually followed by the rest of that punchline, "look at all them ****ing Injuns..."

JoJo - so you saw that episode of Star Stories too ?

I am currently in an Australian phase:

"Rack off ! Or I'll dob you in the the screws !"

And the other day I was invited to a seminar that promised to:

"comceptualise the semantic infrastructure of the web"

so am trying to work that into conversation as much as possible, it's not easy, so thanks for the freebie.

from a couple of months ago : My 4 year old god daughter was watching me work on my bike in the garage and then went off to play with her dollies. She put a bandage on the dollies arm and her monther asked 'Has your dolly hurt her arm?'

To which little Abigail replied 'Yes and it is proper bolloxed'

No sure why I got the blame for that.

"word up nigga" - only to be used if both parties in the conversation are white

"yea, thats what your mum said"

"subtle as a half brick through your window"

And when on a night out, any phrase used in Anchorman is fair game.

[i]Only if closely followed by 'ten quid for a spectators ticket? Christ on a bike' [/i]

Shouldn't that be "Christ on a bike that's cheaper than a nights camping in the New Forest and you get a music festival, beer festival and to watch people do stupid stuff on bikes"

or was that just too much to type?

'you can't polish a turd, but you can roll it in glitter'
'i'd rather be fired from a cannon than squeezed from a tube'
'hunched over like a man diving into a pool that was emptied yesterday'

last two quote hunter s thompson

anything with 'hunched over, furiously' preceeding it, when on rides 🙂

bolloxy sh*te is my most commonly used one!!
Strange how I manage to refrain from using in front of a class of 6 yr olds but it manages to slip out about every 10 minutes at home!

Oh, and "for f*ck's sake"!!
I am thoroughly ashamed of my foul mouth, especially when kids constantly tell me off!! 😳

Must try harder!

S**t the bed - I seem to use that rather a lot as an exclamation for some reason

That's a favourite of mine, too! Strangely, the first time I heard it, was on TV, with Lionel Blair, of all people, using it.

I used it loads when I shared a place with others. One of me flatmates was in Africa, Tanzania I think, and saw something that surprised her. She said she heard herself say 'Shit the...' then realised what she was saying. She hated the fact that something she told me off about, she almost ended up using herself.

Most of mine seem to involve the words shit, bastard, f*ck, and c*nt.

And Jesus Christ. Which is incredibly disrespectful to Christians.

'Christ on a bike' is one I use a fair bit. Not at work, though.

Actually, Christ is something that creeps in, too.

'Shitting Jesus' is praps one of my worst.

I actually have a lot of respect for Christianity, and many of it's followers. As I do for all religions.

"She had a fanny like a wizards sleeve/clowns pocket"

Sadly, it would appear I've used this a fair bit in the past...

"f#*k it"
" thats what we likeeeee"
"prick, ****errrrrrr" - hot fuzz
"thats what she said" - can be used to finish people sentences in a crude way

safe for work: muppets, flippin' 'eck (good for diverting an errant fffff into something slightly more 'professional')

not safe for work: knobshine, ****, bellend, etc. Niche cursing if at all possible.

'I wouldn't touch her with a ten foot stunt-cock' is one of my current favourites....

Along with 'And which of the words "Accident" and "Emergency" are you having the most difficulty with?'

'Sh1t the bed'
'F"ck me a bus'
'Spiders'
'Nurse'

and most alarmingly, for at least 25 years I have regularly exclaimed...

'God me Kev's eyes'

- but I can't remember the origins of this.

greetings:"hello poof" "aight, bender!"
"cheers poof(s)" - said this last night at a party. having a few drinks and i asked one of the guys which of the women he'd like to **** in the room. he said none of them. i said "bender". turns out the other guy was his boyfriend. oops.

"genau" - exactly in german.
"geil" - meaning awesome but also as in "she was so wet/horny" "sie war echt geil"

"bollocks" and "tits" when something goes wrong.

My favourite response to "can I ask you a question?" is to now reply:
"yes it is that big (hold out hands about a 18 inches apart), and no you can't see it..."
Not sure how well it goes down at work.....
