| | Re [Quiz]Science Fictionally Profane | | I guessed on most of them. I guess I'm just too sweet and innocent to know any naughty words.

| | Re [Quiz]Science Fictionally Profane | | So, while we're here, what's you're favorite curse or naughty word from a sci-fi or other fictional work?
I get a kick out of "frak!" But I think "frell!" is even funnier, because, as expletives go, it's not got the harsh consonant sounds you expect. "Frelling" shows up a lot in Farscape.

| I'm kinda partial to "Shards!" from the Pern books (Anne MacCaffrey) because it's a nice handy word but doesn't have religious, body part, body function or sexual connotations whatsoever.
