my curse word is 'bugger'...

[derien]

According to the test, my curse word is 'bugger.' Only, I don't say that, ever. Firstly, and probably most importantly, because I do not have an English accent, and using accents which are not your own always sounds pretentious. Secondly, because it means 'fuck up the ass,' which I don't think sounds polite at all. This quiz must have been written by an American.

Your word is BUGGER. You are generally quite
restrained, but sometimes your anger or
frustration come to the surface and it all
comes out. Yet you somehow can't stop sounding
polite, despite it all.


Which Swear (Curse) Word Are You?

I would like to add, completely irrelevantly, that I'm apparently addicted to "A Bit of Fry and Laurie." Takes me a while to get through a whole ep, because I watch about three sketches at a time, but being able to turn it off after a few minutes is very convenient.

One of my friends (daughter of a preacher) adopted "bugger" as her swear word, innocent of what it meant. Her parents didn't tell her (I think they were too busy snickering), so I got to explain it.

Good times.

The parent who was a preacher must have been pretty tolerant to not bother explaining it. :)

I can't remember what his reaction was when he found out she was reading slash, but I think it was along the lines of "Eh, whatever." They are Cool People, and a hell of a lot more open-minded than most non-religious folks I've met.
