What are some
What are some insults or exclamations you use without actually swearing? Whether you mean what you say or you're just being silly doesn't mattter :) Here['s some of mine (and yup, some taken out of books)
-D'Arvit!
-Gods of Olympus!!
-Holy Hephestus
-Knowledge has been chasing you for awhile, but you are always ahead of it
-Annoying furball
-Your garden is wilting and your cucumbers are soft
-I've met rocks smarter then you
I hope this is a-okay @Admins :I
As always, comments will be screened and edited, if necessary, before posting.

Mine are basically all book quotes...
-What the Helheim
-Scud
-Spindiddly (does that count?)
-Oh my gosh/Oh gods (though to be fair, I do not believe in the Jewish god despite being Jewish. Nah, I'm pretty sure I believe in the Greek gods, seeing as I've prayed to them many times, including 3, maybe 4 times today)
-Frog-faced blob of camel spit
-Three moons
-I swear on the river styx (this is only an occasional this, as this is a very serious promise)
-instead of the opposite of heaven/fire bad place, I say Tartarus
Wait I just realized I'm allowed to list ones that aren't from books... let's see do I have any of those?
....
yeah I can't think of any
okay that's it then ig
thank you

Mine are mostly food-based, so... let's-a go!
-You sound like Mario 'bout to projectile vomit all over Toad (context: I used this ONE TIME on my not-friend Isaac... his best friend [my BFF's brother] laughed at that)
-Stinkin'piece of zuchinni bread
-Mushroom head (Isaac had this weird hairstyle where he shaved the sides of his head, and he looked like a mushroom...)
Can't really think of anymore, but maybe in the near future...

OH MY GOSH I USE MUSHROOMHEAD~ my best friend and I came up with it a while ago to describe extremely annoying people (specifically the kind of middle schooler who swears a whole lot and jokes about stuff they shouldn't and is generally very obnoxious, you know the ones) and I've been using it ever since
Also flattened discount artichoke, I got it from a book by Roshani Chokshi
"You pilfer!" Pilfer was a vocabulary word in my English class once, and for some reason my friends just decided it was a noun and a good all-around insult? This process was probably speeded along by me yelling at them every time they used it that it's a verb not a noun XD
Aaand I can't think of any more rn
Speckle says <atado> Avocado? You want avocados? I don't have any...

I literally spent forever copying down the best Shakespeare insults in a notebook somewhere. XD I love those
(January 18, 2024 - 6:16 pm)
- gosh diggidy dang darn it
- your face is a third derivative (I only used this once I swear in a moment of subpar cognitive skills)
- I WILL SPIDER YOU
and I've been meaning to use two I found in Les Mis but I've never got around to it:
- zounds!
- by the big slippers of big slipperdom (direct quote. it's amazing)

screaming words like WORM or WRETCH over and over again tend to work for me.
i swear very rarely, it takes away the meaning of a word if you use it too often.

Here are some of my favorites:
-Bootless worm! (Got that one from a Shakespearean insult generator in 7th grade and it's served me well)
-Frogbutts (I started to say a real swear in the presence of one of my friends who doesn't like swears and corrected to this and pretended it was what I meant to say all along. Nobody was fooled but my friend appreciated the sentiment)
Umm I promise I do have some more creative swears I just can't remember them
(January 19, 2024 - 10:10 am)
Hmm.. well, I like to say "ach crivens" (or whatever it was) just for fun ofc! And then there's always "sanct" though I don't use that one... I mostly just say "ack" or "blech" or "ugh" or *vague animal noises* really
(January 20, 2024 - 7:08 pm)
I don't have many but I have been using "Fantastic!" in a British accent as an exclamation of joy (as a reference to Doctor who's ninth doctor, he's my favorite)
