What a cheerful holiday idea! Just kidding. :-) The problem with new and clever curses and epithets is that they seem to be contrived, more often than not. I think it's usually best to stick with the tried and true, unless there is a compelling reason deviate from the norm. At any rate, here are a few I've been known to use. Probably not all that creative or original though. You look like ten pounds of crap in a nine pound bag. Or more commonly: I feel like ten pounds of crap in a nine pound bag. Eat worms and die. You'd turn a maggots stomach. Or: It's enough to turn a maggots stomach. jon
