Robin Hood, Men in Tights.\n\nAlthough the quote is:\n"Pissed off?  If I was in your position I'd be more worried about being pissed on!"  Or something very, very similiar.

I know when we used it while I was in the Marines, it meant "fast."\nAs in, "Get that done ricky tick!"  Its got to do with the story of Ricky Ticky Tavy, and how he was so fast a cobra couldn't catch him.

ignorance.  \n\nTo take it a step further though, I know many people who say they dont take the Lords name in vain, but they say; gosh, golly, jeez and things like that- those are still variations of the Lords names because those words derived from the words God, and Jesus.  \n\nI wrote an article about this at my website.  Click a link below if you are interested in reading it.  \n\nThe general idea, is that we need not interject words at all that are unnecessary.  Why say anything that isnt to the point anyways?\n\nWhy do we even add the space in a sentance for cursing?  Instead of saying things like "Jeez, its hot!"  Couldnt we just say, "its hot?"

I use both in different situations. If I were to say I was going on a vacation to the Caribbean, I would say Cu-rib-e-un but if I were to talk about the Disney movie and ride "Pirates of the Caribbean" I say Care-uh-be-un. I don't know why exactly, Care-uh-be-un fits better with pirates I suppose.

Not sure about your Madonna references but as for the Buffy one try this-\n\nI can tell you that timber is a curving frame branching outward from the keel of a ship and bending upward in a vertical direction that is usually composed of several pieces united. And...shiver is to tremble in the wind as it strikes first one and then the other side (of a sail) transitive senses to cause (a sail) to shiver by steering close to the wind.  \nNow from that you get-"Shiver me/my timber".I can't find any authority to agree, but I thought that this was another saying derived from sailing ships. It certainly seems firmly attached to pirates. I think the saying represents the shock of a large wave hitting a wooden ship broadside and causing the hull to shudder. In other words, it expresses shock or surprise.\n\nSo when Buffy talks about it to Willow she is probably referring to who will get or find the suprise/shock first.

Because we're afraid of those 3 words. they are a sign of commitment and boys like to be free to play. give a guy freedom and if he's a good one, he will love you for sure.(don't be jelous, but know when he's abusing it)

Correction : cerotillo,hueco pisado,pinche huey. They don't cuss any more or less than the rest of us,they just have a unique way of doing it. FYI: Cipote isn't a bad word,it just means little boy.

Bloody is a mild swear word, no way near as offensive as the F word. We just use it when we're irritated really, like 'bloody' weather, 'bloody' taxes etc, etc, much like your 'goddamn' or just 'damn'. It is an abbreviation of the phrase 'By our Lady' (meaning the Virgin Mary), so when we say bloody it's in the wrong context, because it's part of a prayer! Like the f word coming from fecundity, and meaning fruitful. People don't know what they're saying!! : )

An irresistable pirate, who unfortunately was also illiterate, entered the enemy's waters.  His illegal move landed him in jail.  At trial, the judge asked him to sign the court order, but his handwriting was too illegible.\n\nHe spent the rest of his life in jail.\n\nThe end\n\nCopyright, Sunflower, 2006.  :)
