Wouldn’t you know it? Swedish. My Swedish Political Editor guy:

“Regarding rude words I have to inform you that my native tongue (Swedish)

is probably the world’s most unoffensive. When we swear we just stick to

Swedish versions of ‘hell’, ‘damn’, ‘the devil’ and the likes. Of course we

do have the equivalent of ‘pop’, ‘plum’ and ‘peg’ but we never use those as

curses even if we’re really, really mad. And we absolutely do not have

words like ‘motherpopper’ or anything were religion is combined with

oscenity. Our linguistic tameness is probably a blessing. As to why the

academics don’t know. Perhaps it is because religion never was that much of

a big deal in our anti-Catholic lutheran state church. And our family ties

are not of the magnitude of countries in Southern Europe.”

Yet further confimation that God made Sweden in order to irritate the rest

of us.
