Exclamations: obscene and otherwise

[Pallas Gaudio]

I've just wasted five minutes of my life using Google Custom Search to see how many times, and how, users of the Planet Calypso Forums express surprise, shock, indignation, laughter and amazement without emoticons. So, from my sample of obvious words (not including self-censored words):




1. 82400 LOL
2. 18900 Damn
3. 13000 Shit (not including the 15 cases of merde)
4. 9660 OMG
5. 7310 Blast
6. 3010 Fuck
7. 1820 Fucking
8. 531 Holy Shit
9. 432 Fucking Shit
10. 15 Merde


No doubt the list can be considerably amended.

What about "Bugger"

 

[Artrat]

What about "Bugger"

817 times apparently, although I think it's used mostly as a noun rather than an exclamation.

 

[Nor Alien]

I think I used bastard a few times!!

 

[Pallas Gaudio]

I think I used bastard a few times!!

But certainly not 1360 times.


Of course, I forgot ROFL (5010) and roflcopter (41).
