Stuff like “god damn”, “fucking hell”, etc. Anything that stems from religious sources. That includes fudged varieties like “jeez/geez” and “heck”.

And to clarify, this isn’t some attempt to avoid blasphemy or anything. I’m not particularly religious and would rather rewrite the neural pathways for those “defaults”, but haven’t been able to come up with satisfactory alternatives so far.

*To clarify further, I’m all good with most other curses (shit, fuck, ass, etc). I’m not trying to be inoffensive, just non-religious.

      “Fudged” in the body wasn’t a swear replacement. I was using the word as a word.

        I didn’t even realize that, I was just using it as an example.

        My point is: don’t replace bullshit words with other bullshit words. Just use the normal words and stop pretending. Say fuck. Say shit. Say hell damn ass cunt. Tell anyone who decides to act offended to get over themselves.

        tl;dr grow up.
