I just have to ask.

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Ok, tell me. When people are shocked or whatever, they scream out "Jesus H. Christ" Now, I'm not a church person. So I ask. What does the "H" stand for? I have been wondering about this a long time :roll:

AFAIK - The "H" stands for "HOLY" - or it stands for that in the UK!

I also seem to remember that to swear using "Jesus H Christ" is to use 3 swear words - hence profaning and going against the Holy Trinity - Father, Son and Holy Ghost.

This also reminds why its is considered bad luck to walk under a leaning ladder - as the ladder is making the sign of a trinangle and be to found walking through it you are showing a great disrespect to the "Holy Trinity"

(I could of course be talking out of my A*** - But in this case I doubt it!)

Hope this information helps :-)

I don't use that one. I use Jesus effing Christ, which will probably get me triple the sins for using it.

f***ing hell seems to be what comes from me usually.
the standard ones get the job done i think.
having said that,ive come across my fair share of pretentious tossers which tends to require something with far more syllables and a higher word score in scrabble to produce the desired effect.

but always out of ear shot of the little ones......
apart form sunday when i hung my first door :roll:

I much prefer - after many years of feeling very uncomfortable about using the word, that the "C" word works best to shut people up!

Beside there nothing like a good "F***" every now and again! - I mean about swearing !

Now, I ask myself whos going to start a "Whats your Favorite Swear Word and Why?" Thead - In the least it give the MODS the HeeGeeBeeGees ;-)

Having read the above web page I now know I was completely wrong about the "H" - but at least everything else I wrote was right - the question is why do have this information floating about in my mind? :eek:

I find, myself, that "J*sus f*cking c*nting Chr*st" generally tends to silence the office when tactically wielded at times of some great stress...

Terribly blasphemous, obviously, but I ain't no believer so f*ck it. :roll:

...and it makes me feel better. :innocent:

However, to get myself back on topic rapidly: maybe the 'H' just stands for 'Hello!' and is intended to be used in full (ie J*sus! Hello Chr*st!) as a greeting to the bloke should he be arsed to 'come back' at some juncture. Obviously with a certain Stone Roses choon as soundtrack.

Sadly(?), I doubt it... :?

I thought "feck" or "feck off" was a good none abusive swear word until Debaser got banned on this board for a day for using it. Then again it could just have been oversensitive moderators and/or the silly bint it was directed at

In fairness, most of the christian faith is taling out it's a**, so it would still be accurate...
