Yeah, I kinda like Ruttin' better than Gorram.

Can't say I love any of them, but I've always thought "frak" and "freel" were particularly weak tea. Lame.
While a lot of the Star Wars ones aren't great either, "poodoo" always makes me laugh because it's so ludicrous (and because it doesn't mean what it sounds like it means!).
Best curse word? "Barbara Streisand!"

What about "SNARF!" from Thundercats?

and i call myself a SW fan (only the original movies tho... not the new kindergarten stuff)
obviously haven't read any of the novels out there in the star wars 'verse ;) or maybe not just the right ones. And I don't read the kindergarten stuff :P just all the big girl next gen. novels. not the graphic novels.
Snarf was that weird creature's name, wasn't a swear. he just said 'snarf' from time to time for..whatever reason. snarfer did the same thing with his name if you saw enough of the series @_@ whcih unfortunately i did. burned way too many brain cells on that waste of a show.

Sigh. There are so many classic books that the youth of today only know as movies - and then there are classic radio dramas that people only know as books or TV shows.
Season two of the HHGTTG radio show introduced us to curses such as swut, jujuflop and turlingdrome as well as the worst of all: (which I won't repeat in full) B**g**m - only to be used in cases of dire provocation.
...or you could watch Torchwood and just enjoy good 'ol fangled, unbowdlerised, Anglo-Saxon pottymouth (although they seem to be a bit more restrained this season) - usually slighty muffled because someone else's tonsils are in the way.

Well, that's just Prime.
I'm not sure how to feel about the character named Slag. What did he do to get his name profanitized?
