Advocating a new swear word: Smurf

Since the FCC and others are trying to clean up the language used in public discourse, I figured it was about time that we could have a universal swear word without having to drop an "F-bomb" (which, in case you don't know, is one of the most universally usable words, but that's a different topic for a different day).

Anyway, I figured one could use slight variations of "smurf" in place of several other swear words. The following list is by no means exhaustive. Feel free to send me your suggestions. If I get enough of them, I'll add a separate page to the site.


  • Smurf off

  • Mothersmurfer

  • Smurfhole

  • Smurfhead

  • Bullsmurf

  • Oh, smurf me!

  • Smurf me up the smurf

  • Un-be-smurfing-lievable

  • Lick my smurf

  • George W. Smurf

Steve,

Interesting post on "smurf". The 1st I ever heard the word used was back in the 80's on an old school Beastie Boys song. Can't remember the song or the context though.
