I am making a collection of sweary phrases for a grumpy but colourful art project.
I'm after things you might say when shouting in angry frustration at a news headline (where an exasperated "for fuck's sake" is common in English).
I will post a poll to make the final choice, but I keep posting polls then immediately getting more suggestions, so I'm trying to get the suggestions first! This is what I have so far:
Men i helvete då
Nei, men FOR HELVETE DA!
For pokker
For svarte!
For helsikeIf this has landed in your timeline & you don't know what I'm talking about, there is some info about the project here

@eclectech Northern norwegians swear a lot, and I mean A LOT.
There's a few news articles on this one northerner who went to Oslo (which is south) and said "hestkuk" in front of a policeman (or policewoman?). Jail, courthouse, newspapers, the works. -

Jail, courthouse, newspapers, the works.@eclectech Happened back in 2003 and then 2007, incurred in 36 days jail time. Meanwhile you can (affectionately?) call a policeman "hestkuk" (literally, "horsecock") in northern Trømso and nothing happens.
