The fuck you say!
Going to show my age here. I remember being in Junior High the first time I saw "FUCK" in print (not printed on a bathroom wall), in a book named "The Hunter". It was in the public library, so we would all go over there, find the book and gaze at the word actually used in a copyrighted situation. Back then "FUCK" was reserved for special situations; you almost needed a drum-roll prior to saying it. It was a "Guy Word"...females did not use it. I think we need a new really, really bad word. FUCK is used so frequently that it has lost its shock value and true meaning.
