Kumamoto, Japan Superthread

[Axver]

I looked at the discussion at the start of the thread, and Ax, 'cunt' is TOTALLY the most hardcore swearword here, not just in America. Every kid knows 'fuck', but 'cunt' is almost too much even for teenagers that swear all the time.

Also, nothing happened when we went to Cunter in Switzerland, did it?

That's certainly not my experience! As I said in one of my posts last night, I've even witnessed people arguing that "cunt" is not a swear word at all. That was the bizarrest argument. The only role I played was trying to get the guys to talk quietly since there were a couple of teachers nearby and I didn't want them to end up with Saturday morning detentions!

May i suggest the SuperWin Express?

Rest assured, I will ride this train. A lot. Who doesn't want to travel on something that's 1337?

What is the term for those dumb little toothbrush beards right under the bottom lip that a lot of people have these days that isn't 'clit-tickler'?

 

[coolian2]

At school "fuck" was worth one detention. "Shit" wasn't worth, well...shit.

"Cunt", as one of my mates learnt is worth three principals detentions - even pleading ignorance to the significance of the word.

Yeah, that struck me is kind of odd. Can't be a regional thing, can it? Like, everywhere else in the world cunt is worse than fuck, but in the places you go to in Melbourne it's the opposite?

"Crap"

That's what I call them.

Also, I don't mind the word cunt, unless it's used with a really sexist intention.

Could be, although I think they're usually about equal, depending.

With sailors, we use "cunt" a lot more to describe things, ie. "absolute cunt of a tight pull on the sail".

Says it all about Melbourne doesn't it.....


Where did the convicts settle????

I would have been in detention so many times.

Hey U-Wen.

Holy crap she knows my name.

Wasn't it Sydney first, then the better ones moved down to Melbourne?

If that's right, then that pretty much sums up Australian society in terms of Melbourne and Sydney.

"Fuck" and "cunt" both got you a Saturday morning detention at my school. I'm probably the only person who has ever gotten away with saying "fuck" to the teacher at a Christian high school. We all had our Modern History marks lowered by the Studies Board due to our assignment tasks not meeting their criteria (i.e. the teacher's fault, not ours), and in the silence that followed, I blurted out "you are fucking kidding". One girl exclaimed "André, what did you say?!", to which the teacher just said "I don't think you should ask him to repeat that" and simply moved on!

As for words like arsehole, bastard, and the like, I imagine they would have been worth an after-school detention but I don't recall anybody ever being caught saying them.

And shit? Yeah, not worth shit. I managed to talk my way out of a lunchtime detention for saying shit because the year eight and year nine co-ordinators couldn't agree on whether it was a swear word or not.

Timing is fucking everything.

No, cunt is more taboo than fuck in what I imagine is the entire English speaking world, though I'm not sure about their equivalents in other languages. I'd grasp that in Spanish it's probably the same, since I'd see fuck in Spanish dictionaries at school but not cunt. But that could mean nothing.

That's how farmers talk, too.

Haha, nice job.

We didn't have convicts in Victoria! Well, I understand a few ended up around here when this was still part of NSW, but Victoria wasn't a convict settlement, unlike NSW, Tassie, QLD, and WA. Melbourne was founded as a city for free settlers.

 

[The Sad Punk]

So when I go to Melbourne, do I have to say 'mothercunter', 'what the cunt', 'cunt off' (personal favourite) and 'cunting'?

 

[Gluey]

For the life of me, whenever I see this I think someones had their boob rebuilt.

Like I said, just sums up the way things are today. SA must have just gotten the boring ones, and the NT just got the idiots and the poor old Aboriginals got stuck with them.

 

[coolian2]

Cunt is definitely worse than fuck. I'll throw fuck around all the time, but measure the company very carefully before i decide to drop the cunt-bomb.

You'll feel bad swearing around me. Really, you will.

 

[coolian2]

Although, at school, if you got the right teacher and you were clever enough you could say fuck and get away with it.

My 7th form geography classes were a fucking good time.

We didn't get any convicts. We got European aristos, mate.

In my old school, I'm fairly certain that on average, the teachers swore more than the students. I'm also fairly certain that the teachers had a higher blood-alcohol level across the board at all times.

That argument was on the Gold Coast. Which may say it all.

Though I remember when I was about nine, before I left New Zealand, my friend and I were having an argument about the worst words, and my mother broke it up by telling us that fuck was slightly worse than cunt but they were both disgusting words little boys like us shouldn't know.

Of course, nowadays I'll say any word around my mother and neither of us bats an eyelid.

I don't yet know what it's like to have a tanto stuck in my knee cap, but I have a feeling I may find out.

Yep, same for me, and I grew up in Souf Orklund bro

Those are all very funny. But what about "cunted"?
