It creeps me the fuck out."DVS BSTrD said:"So we totally scored this military storage locker out in Cali. We were hopping for weapons but instead we got enough nerd gear to dig up the entire Bay area. It's also haunted by this ghost that calls herself EGO. She's a total babe but talking to her gives me a headache."canadamus_prime said:Well if Storage Wars was like this then I might actually watch it.
Good job she has such a vast array of rocks and sticks to choose from!UNHchabo said:"And you may want to arm yourself a bit more. The locals aren't known for their charm."
Yeah, some parts of San Francisco can get pretty rough...
I can't say for sure, whether or not Battlestar Galactica started it, but they definitely made it popular.kailus13 said:"Holy shako you're alive!"
Leaving out the truly awful attempt at a future swear word, why would you look in the pod if you thought she's dead?
How exactly does something only one person can see gewt behind that character? Whoever designed that implant was either stupid or insane.
As kailus13 alluded to above, often it's so they can have characters realistically swearing without featuring words you can't have on TV before 9pm. 'Frack' from Battlestar Galactica is one of the less subtle examples. The most ridiculous one I've ever seen was 'fardles' (and its variant 'fardling'), used by Anne McCaffrey in several of her novels and short stories.Wraithsight said:Laura Baily gleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

One thing I have never understood is why writers feel the need to make up swearwords to show its the future. If you are speaking English pick on of the may perfectly workable ones we have. And don't give me that "Its a translator microbe and it cant translate that word" crap. A good translator would pick the closest approximation.
