    Cursing in a foreign language?

    Is is still cursing?

    Is it just a good time?

    What if someone within earshot speaks that language.

    I've been learning lots of Chinese profanity lately...

    Talking

    In Norway, almost 20 years ago, this story came out about some guy and his serious cursing. This kid thought it was pretty funny that his dad was cursing all the time, so when his dad was trying to repair the washing macine, he secretly put a tape player in the same room to re record all the cursing. That tape is the funniest thing I've ever heard, the dad is more or less contant cursing for 10-15 minutes, and the kid's mom gets an earful when she comes to ask if he needs some help.

    The kid gave out the tape to some relatives, and it wasn't long before more or less all of Norway knew about this guy and the tape.

    And btw, some of the more classic cursing in Norwegian is various forms of calling out the evil one, or satan or whatever name we have for him (and that washing machine guy has a lot of those names).

    I sometimes need to "vent" in the confines of my car. Being a new dad with a 14 month old daughter who is taking to talking and repeating very quickly, I thought it not to be the best of ideas to cuss in front of her...

    So I started making up my own swear words. In the beginning it feels a little weird but they come very naturally now. And feel great. Additional bonus= she can copy if she likes and noone will mind...

    I taught everyone in my 8th grade Spanish class to cuss in Polish and it was just a good time, but when the teacher started wondering why all the kids are talking funny and called my dad, then it became clear that it's still cursing.

    Doesn't exist. But if you listen to it without knowing what it is, doesn't it sound like some serious cursing?

    Funny story:

    In Whistler about 5 years ago and we're riding up the gondola from the base. My buddy and his two cousins are originally from Hungary. We get on with this older guy and his wife, both sporting fart bags. My buddy is trying to squeeze in and the guy is doing everything he can to maintain as much space as humanly possible. My buddy starts talking to his cousins in Hungarian. I didn't think anything of it because they do it all the time. The old guy and his wife never said a word.

    Just before we get off, the old guy starts talking to his wife in some foreign language, and my buddy turns beet red and basically runs off the gondola. Turns out, my buddy was totally cussing the guy out in Hungarian to his cousins without realizing that the guy and his wife were also Hungarian. Once my buddy heard the old man talking to his wife, he couldn't get off the damn gondola fast enough.

    A few years ago in Whistler, when I was an instructor, I'd often hang out with this buddy of mine who was a fellow Quebecker. There was this good looking chick who worked with us, I think her name was **************, something really french. Well, I think she shut my buddy down one night so as we're getting in line at Wizard chair to go ski in session, he starts slagging her off in french to me (bare in mind she's right in front of us) he says basically, on top of having a fat-ass, she skis like shit! So she spins around and slaps him right across the face! His look was priceless. I guess I coulda forewarned him, I mean I recognized her from some races back when I lived out east, but with a name like that, he shoulda known she could speak french... dumbass

    Moral of this thread: if you want to insult someone at Whistler, do it in English.
    Yep, seen this before. Crazy liquor & cheeseburger party got out of control.
