Creative Cursing 101

We all have those moments when we feel frustrated, angry, or otherwise likely to tread into toxic behavior territory by resorting to use of objectionable words. Upon successful completion of this course, you will have gained knowledge of choosing your words to express your feelings without being offensive to others and perhaps gaining a few laughs in the process.
There are many words that might be considered objectionable in one area but part of the common language in others. When in doubt, it is best to choose an alternative word. If you require a sample of some words that are considered objectionable, I refer you to Professor Emeritus George Carlin's course, "7 Dirty Words You Can't Say On Television." This course DOES contain objectionable language!
When posting in this course, please respect your fellow classmates by using the spoiler tag to hide objectionable words. The tag used in this course will be the following using triangle brackets < > in place of parentheses: (div class="Spoiler") Objectionable translation (/div).
This is an example of house coursework will be formatted:
Of a lower temperature than a magic user's mammary in a metal restraining garment.
When one wishes to curse creatively, the primary objective is to replace the objectionable word with an acceptable alternative. Some possibilities are listed below:
Excrement, feces, bowl movement
condemn; to condemn by a Higher Power
Fornicate, engage in sex, have intercourse with
Once you have chosen an acceptable alternative word, you must change a few other words in the expression to increase the laugh factor.
Examples:
Traveling against the current in a tributary of excrement in the absence of a means of propulsion.
The bovine feces struck the oscillating unit.
He operated the motor vehicle like a brimstone bat.
The final thing to consider is that toxic behavior consists of more than simply using objectionable words. Toxic behavior includes but is not limited to insulting others based on race, creed, religion, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, or country of origin; attacking a person rather than their argument; and generally behaving like a male donkey's posterior region towards other people or group of people with the intention of starting arguments. You can creatively curse to express frustration or emotion over a specific situation, but not direct it towards a specific person or group of people.
When creative cursing is employed during the discussion of controversial topics, one must remember the 10 Commandments of Logical Debate.

Edit: Nope fail again
A lot of these are pretty funny and witty! Just please remember this forum is considered 17+ based on the game rating, but it should be family friendly because all ages have access to this forum.
Based on rules and generally speaking, nothing vulgar. No overtly foul language. Nothing derogatory directed at individual people that can be seen as offensive or as harassment.

I did include the bit about not insulting or directing towards others at the end along with the 10 Commandments of Logical Debate. If I were to say the devs are {insert creative cursing insult}, that would ne toxic and bad. If I said the latest update is a deposit of canine feces emitting a noxious cloud of vapor, that would be within the forum parameters.
Thank you in advance
Nope
Anybody manage a synopsis?
Btw, the word 'feck' is a legitimate word, not a swear word. Am I able to carry on using it?
For example: Having relations with a canine.
I can't get the tags to work, so cannot provide the translation.
Feck (or fek or feic) is a form of effeck, which is in turn the Scots cognate of the modern English word effect. However, this Scots noun has additional significance: Efficacy; force; value; return. Amount; quantity (or a large amount/quantity)
However, in creative cursing, the alternative word must have meaning within the context of the remainder of the sentence. The chosen word is a synonym. In most cases when the f-bomb is used, it isn't expressing efficacy, force, or value, though it may have an effect. As a general exclamation, it might work.
May I direct you to a 90s British TV show, which you may or may not know, called Father Ted. A comedy about some priests living together on a remote island where they used that word all the time - in fact probably the introduction of the word into popular language.
It was also one of the funniest things ever on TV.
Use [ ] square brackets around the tags.
Spoiler
/Spoiler
Put what you want to say between the tags. Using the square brackets [ ] in place of ( ), the fancy one codes like this:
(Spoiler)Your objectionable translation.(/Spoiler)
Make sure to capitialize Spoiler, do not pluralize making Spoilers, and do not place spaces between the tags and the statement.
EDIT: The new spoiler tag with the square brackets stopped working. The mods have asked that we all go back to "old tag" for the foreseeable future. Please, edit your posts.
OLD CODE uses triangle < > brackets around the tags.
div class="Spoiler"
/div
It will look like this:
This is the same code available in the html editor
I think there are some clips there.

the alt is where a second url would go if you had an alternate source for the pic. You still have to do it with nothing between the quotation marks for the forum server to recognize it.
Our, you can click the file tab at the top and upload a pic from your computer.
If you are accessing the forums from a mobile device, be sure to click "view desktop site" in your browser settings. The html does not work in mobile view.
If you want to quote someone, click the Quote link under their post. Delete the extra bits of text you don't need while leaving the tags untouched.
I am on mobile & perhaps that's why I'm having such a hard time lol
When I try to quote.. All I get in my box is the word "null" .. I'm assuming that means I can't quote?
Sorry.. I'm a bit confused & thanks for helping me

@rgerkman The mobile view does not support html. Go to your browser settings. Find the "Request desktop site" or "View full desktop". Check the box or otherwise turn it on.
Thank you

HELP! The new spoiler tag is suddenly not working! All the objectionable stuff we hid with the tags are now visible openly! What happened? You might want to hide this thread until we sort out what is wrong.
They were functioning 2 hours and 10 minutes ago when I last posted here.
Complete fail
I suppose I should just give up lol
