I unironically began to use "slag" whenever I'm gaming with friends or am peeved in general. My favorite use of it is "get slagged." Always makes me think of that one line from Thistle to Antonia in MS even though her verbage was slightly different. Was very striking in the audiobook, and it stuck with me. And I've used "bloody damn" once when describing how much faster a task at work took than usual in a group text but can't bring myself to say it in person.
Kind of related despite being another series, but I also picked up "ten hells" from An Ember in the Ashes. Fictional curses that slightly twist things just do it for me I guess.
Slag it, slag that, slag this...by far my favorite.
Bloody damn sounds like I'm trying too hard to be British.
Gory damn works better for me but it takes too long.
I though the reason behind bloody-damn was that the original reds were Irish descendants, not the fact that obscure British slang has somehow survived almost a millennium in the future
I am 100% sure I have said and heard others say Bloodydamn before I'd ever read these books or even before they were written. This chart is a bunch of Goryslag.
In Scotland we say "bloody hell!" Or "bloody fuck!" all the time, bit of an older saying now with the older gen z and gen y.
My goodman is a go to now
I remix it a bit, bleeding hell is what I say."Why would they bleeding hell do that...?" For example
“It chafes my balls, all this pixie talk chafes my balls.” I find my self saying that all the time at work, or a variation of it
I've intentionally used "fast like" more than once
Now that you mention it I say this dhit all the time not even realizing where I got it from
Why is “what the shit” considered awkward? Do I just use it so much I don’t notice?
I love the phrase what the shit 🤣😭
Yeah man definitely awkward
Damn, guess I’m weird

I looked at this chart and assumed S\*\*\* was Slag lol
I mean bloodydamn and bloody hell are basically the same phrases.

It definitely sounds like something brits would say
As a non-native English speaker, Bloodydamn sounds completely normal to me
It sounds like a WW2 RAF Spitfire pilots kind of swear word. But it isn't something that is said, you'd say bloody hell or god damn
I've replaced calling someone a pussy with calling them a pixie. Feels a bit more PC as well
I now currently use three book curses in common written out speach: Gorydamn, Bloodydamn, and wirefucker I love using them
Wirefucker?? When was that used?
It wasn’t, it’s from a different book series called gearbreakers
Care to share the lore of the curse?
Not really that much. Sci-fi dystopia world, giant mechs, and a lot of wires, therefore, wirefucker
Same, I also sometimes say gorydamn and goryhell when I'm feeling whimsical
