      Bloody Norah is still widely used in the UK, and by me in the US.

      She was married to Gordon Bennett, which the article doesn't mention.

        @mik a poltroon like you might confuse a hootenanny with a whooperup!

        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

          Thanks, Mik. 🙂 If this list isn't bang up to the elephant, I don't know what is.

                  There's no creativity in mainstream english swearing. In some other languages swearing is a skill.
