With a 4 .5 year old grandson who picks up on words rather quickly, I need to find a substitute for the sobriquet @**h*** and ******-****** (Samuel L. Jackson's favorite term). I need something that flowed cleanly, rolling off the tongue with little effort that is not too offensive and will pass muster with my son, the baby momma and my lovely wife. For a while I thought "Wanker" hit the sweet spot but that was veto'ed by the wife. Help me guys. I am not a "goshdarnit you mother abusing donkey patoutie" kind of guy.
:(

Now that my 1917/1937 45 ACP revolver is "snubbied" and checks out as reliable, I'm ready to start carrying it. I'm in search of a pancake-style leather holster for an N-frame with a 3.5-inch barrel. I haven't been able to find one, so I thought I would reach out to the Forum to see if anyone had any thoughts. The Model 27 came in a 3.5-inch, so I would think holsters would be around. Thanks for the help!


that looks like a Fritz special if you ever decide to get ride of it let old 475 wildey know I have a Jovino in 45 acp

That English alternative doesn't really fly. Somebody I knew was on vacation with her 10-year old girl when they met an English family whose son used that word a lot. My friend and her girl decided it rolled off the tongue quite well and started using it themselves...with no clue what it meant. Some hilarity followed when they were directed to a webpage for decoding English slang.:oops:
 
A dear friend of mine who is a dyed in the wool Scot uses the term wanker frequently. That is where I picked it up from. My scottish friend wore his dress kilt for his daughter's wedding. Made me wish I was Scottish so I could wear a kilt-man he looked sharp with that kilt, waistcoat and all the accoutrements. Only problem is that he drinks the highland malt and I like the Isla malt
 
You can find lots of studies and research on the use of profanity.

It has become so common now to hear “bleeps” on radio and television that it appears to be an accepted cultural neat thing to do.

For me profanity is a distraction and lowers my intent to listen.

In speech the needless injection of swear words is a disfluency.

It also reduces my perceived importance of the information being conveyed and the credibility of who is stating it.

There are “acceptable” substitute words for the graphic profane swear words, but they are still a distraction and not necessary.

The more profanity I read or hear the less I enjoy whatever it is.

Young children should not be allowed to cuss and swear.
 
Also some good Italian words and phrases that most who do not speak Italian would recognize. Many Italian “naughty” words and phrases are notable for being situational. In some contexts they may be considered perfectly acceptable and G-rated but in others they may be considered as very offensive and XXX rated. Also a word that is acceptable in Sicily may not be in Naples. I once had a Venezuelan employee who had a good inventory of colorful Venezuelan Spanish scatology I had never heard in Texas or Mexico.

I have a friend who says "motherfather." Sometimes I say Mother Tucker, Chicken Plucker, or Mother Smucker. I once heard my Dad call Smuckers jelly Mother Smuckers. I guess it stuck in my head. I will also occasionally utter Son of a Sapsucker as an epithet.
 
Farging Ice Hole? Filthy Bostitches? Sam Beech?(I highly recommend Johnny Dangerously)

I slipped up once in front of a four year old granddaughter....had to tell her that small trucks were "hassles"....
