  • Godspeed? Is that like mach 10 or warp speed or something? "Captain, we are engaging godspeed to intercept!"

  • I'm an atheist, but I say "Godspeed" anyway, just because it's cool. Godspeed John Glenn.

  • @MsWildtiger Comments like that are enough to get any intelligent person's blood boiling.

  • #1-3 are conscious euphemisms, so that's 75% to your earlier 20%. Good going.

    Note: "Godspeed", thanks to the perilous implications, is the most awesome farewell ever.

  • We also say 'Bless his/her heart' when someone's had something bad happen to them..it's not *always* condescending. I'm from Alabama.We do use the condescending form as well,though.We also say 'i love him to death,but..' and that's *always* condescending.

  • @J88Wolf Yeah. I live in Texas. Not the real South, but close. And I have family in Arkansas. I'm very familiar with "Bless your heart" when they really mean "What the fuck where you thinking moron?"

  • This...is hilariously true. *like*

  • @brabanthallen and get sued by the self-same christians! When the siamese twins in England got separated last year I saw a comment "the doctors were just instruments, God did it". Made me madddddd!!!!!

  • #2 "Bless (their,her,his) heart(s)" Is also an old word insult in the Southern U.S. ^^ It sounds polite, but it's not.

  • you really want a drunk carpenter back-seat-driving for your surgeon?
