I have never heard anyone say Sod Off...apart from on TV when they obviously cant swear, but need the character to be a tough guy...
The North/South split strikes again!

I think I don't use 'sod' too much is that I associate it with landscaping. If I had made that connection when I still did landscaping, my boss would have had another reason to think I was crazy: hysterical laughter from me every time we got a sodding job

"This sodding job is taking forever"
"Heheheheh"

George: "What is your name?"
Blackadder: "Wibble."
George: "What is 2 plus 2?"
Blackadder: "Wibble, Wibble."

British swear words are like little choir boys compared to the swearing vocabulary we have in parts of Norway I can't even bring myself to write out any of those words here, that's how horrible they are. Suffice to say there are a lot of references to human and animal anatomy "below the belt", in addition to the usual blasphemy, summoning of various Biblical characters, words describing promiscuity, "fun" words describing mental handicaps etc.

Note to self: learn Norwegian

I dated a girl whose grandmother was Norwegian and had only been in the States a few years. If I had dated the girl longer, I could have had the grandmother teach some of them to me. She was obviously proficient in it from what I understand

I realize how juvenile I sound, but loving languages and swear words are a lifetime thing with me. It's not so much what they're saying, but how they choose to express it that interests me. Swear words are often the most amusing to me, but I've looked at other phrasing as well

The British way is my favourite way of spelling...its very colourful and also we write the date properly...
15/10/12

I totally forgot about the date. I'm going to start doing that now.

Need to fix all of the crazy moves the U.S. pulled so they could be different from everyone else.

I'm not an anglophile. That seems to be unpopular around here...

I regional and national dialects, accents, word differences, but not more from a particular country.

Nah, I'm not obsessed with Britain. I just think it's better than the States (pssh, the colonies) so I'm going to make a conscious effort to adopt its customs.

Well sure, I wasn't talking about you.

 

[Cerebellion]

Oh God, what!?

I mean, laughing hysterically at juvenile stuff. I equated the swear words with sex ed class because the reactions are somewhat similar

Oh, okay. I assumed you were because I was just fussing about it.

All I remember of Sex Ed class is the teacher drilling into our heads that masturbation is wrong and then turning around to call someone a "Two-Beer Queer".

And then using movies to teach us for him.

I believe I've complained about him in the past on here.
