one of the weirdest ways that language is evolving in response to the internet is that “bad words” just. do not have the same impact anymore. i constantly forget that some people think ‘fuck you’ is a terrible insult
so threats and insults have to start getting really out there if the person wants to even mean anything. if a person told me to die i’d shrug it off but if i opened a post’s tags and saw “op i will sneak into your house and replace all your shoelaces with cooked pasta” do you know how shaken i’d be? do you know how upset i’d be if i saw “op is the personification of the look you share w other people in the grocery store when some dude is causing A Scene™ for no reason”
So you are saying English curses on the Internet are becoming more like Yiddish curses?
I sincerely hope so but I can’t say I’m familiar with yiddish curses and i am begging you to tell me a few
yiddish curses:
may you go to hell and bake bagels there
may all your teeth fall out except one, and in that one you should get a tooth ache
One misfortune is too few for you
you should drink too much castor oil (and have explosive diarrhea);
you should have a hundred houses in every house a hundred rooms and in every room twenty beds, and a delirious fever should drive you from bed to bed
you should be transformed into a chandelier, to hang by day and to burn by night
Hang yourself with a sugar rope and you’ll have a sweet death.
Yiddish curses are fucking amazing!
