He he he
'S, right is a favourite of mine also, along with using the swear words in work. SNECK! being choice at the moment.
My computer has just lapsed into "when I try and type a new word in between two other words it overtypes the old words" mode. Anone know how to stop this.? SEE!!!!!!!!
Press the "Insert" key on your keyboard to get it back to normal - its one of the six keys above the curor keys.
"which classic tooth related lines have you had cause to use in real life?"
Not a 2000ad line, but I did find that Lazarus Churchyard's priceless "Shite 'n' Onions!" passed into my profanity vocabulary on a fairly regular basis.

Ta very much!
Ive been using Quaequem blag lately in response to anything.
If i was a cop, you wouldn't be able stop me saying 'I am the law!'- the temptation would be too great.
The problem with being an obbsessive fan person of any subject is becomeing incomprehensible with 'in' jargon. combine my passion for 2K with firefighting, rallying etc, & Ive got this finely honed halarious language with layers of nuance...that no one else will ever understand. fecking drokkers.
I noticed I was using 'Frell' instead of you know what the other day. And I'm not a big watcher of Farscape. How that slipped into my vocab I do not know.

It's strange how words and phrases slip into your vocabulary. A few minutes ago, I was thinking how best to describe a freelance client who's currently taking the piss, and decided on the descriptive term of 'c*nt-biscuit'. I have *no* idea where that comes from, though.
I've used Wakey wakey turnipheads, we're movin' out more then a few times...
The only line I ever use is so obscure I don't know why I bother. If someone asks me how I know something (when I'm being a general knowledge bore) then I answer:
"I know lots of things - Cat's Cradle!"
I'm not a member of the Prog 534 club, but the image of PJ Maybe saying that has really stuck in my head.(If you remember, he's asked if he knows anything about the murders in his block, and he is making a cat's cradle with string at the time)
''Shite n' onions'' is also a Punk fanzine...so THATS where they got the name!
I'm not sure if my habit of referring to our former eastern block opponents as "The Sovs" came from tooth or not, but it could have done.

After reading Glue by foul-mouthed Scot Irvine Welsh a few months ago I kept catching myself muttering C*ntybaws at people. No idea what it means tho'

"I kept catching myself muttering C*ntybaws at people. No idea what it means tho'"
Well as baw means ball like, I assume it's a variant of the popular insult "C*nty-B*ll*cks.
Well that's a relief, I thought I was being unpleasant or something.

true story this once upon a time when i was at school i was bullied a lot one day i got so angry i struck back and kicked the crap out of the bully then for no reason whatsoever i shouted
spread the word i'm pissed off and no one ever bullied me again
I suddenly realised today that I've started saying "Aye, Aye, Greasy Pie" for no reason what so ever
I say "grud on toast" a lot- but only to myself in an effort to swear less.
"good gorky" tends to slip out quite a bit too.
I've managed to get one into a play at my uni. Basically, I was playing a rather Satanic character in this new play, but the writer had no idea what the character's closing line should be. So I suggested, "You cannot kill what doesss not liiiivve..." And that's how the play will close forever more.
I've found myself using "FUNT" a lot in an attempt to reduce the real word.
However, I will be using "im going all the way up to four jus for you." Class.

I have two favourites, both from Wagner Dredd scripts. The first just bemuses people, the second is very handy...
"No sheeshing!"
"No skin off my chin."

Don't mind saying "Grud On A Greenie" around my 2 year old.
I'll admit that i've used the line "Lets knife" a few times in public and had some worried looks from my friends.
Iknow it isn't a 2000 line but; when on rollercoasters I always, just before the first drop, exclaim loudly "EXPRESS ELEVATOR TO HELL! GOING DOWN!" (Hudson in ALIENS)
Sad, but I like it.
