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.

    What about fictional or ancient religious swears?

    • by the power of Ra!
    • may Zeus grant mercy
    • by Grabthar’s hammer!
    • thank Thor

    When I’m in a gaming VC I sometimes swap in setting-appropriate swears.

    What about political figures?

    • thanks Obama

    What about cringy internet/gaming references?

    • God damn -> mods ban
    • thank god -> thanks chat
