I side with Jac. For casual swearing, all the usual aglo-saxon monosyllables are fine, but if I'm really upset I tend to get very formal about it. Why call someone a cunt or arsehole? They probably won't even realise you're actually upset with them. Calling someone a bloody idiot seems a lot more effective in actually conveying that they've incurred my displeasure. Being coldly polite is very effective.
That said, on the train on Saturday, I caught my knee a right wallop on on the stanchion holding it up, and with tears in my eyes grated out "Why do I have to be in the Family Carriage where I can't even swear properly!!!!"
Fortunatley, I don't have to do that a lot. I try to stay away from situations where I'm likely to become angry or supset, and away from people who anger me.

I've managed to get crap, arse, and piss into my business book. I'm chuffed to bits about that.
And here is one of the examples:

Us native bavarians are never short of most insulting yet (to outsiders) completely incomprehensible multi-syllable swearing. No need to say Fuck or Cunt round here 
EDIT: Recently an insultee lost his court case because the judge found he would have had to understand the insult right there and then in order to feel insulted, rather than have his lawyer explain it to him later

Yes you can ... come on, the joy in not having children is that you can innocently sabotage other people's parenting effortsBog wrote:"Why do I have to be in the Family Carriage where I can't even swear properly!!!!"
After all, swearing is the absolute FIRST thing the little buggers learn in kindergarten. So what? If it's common use language, then they got to learn it
