As far as my years of liver-damaging, pain- staking research are concerned the full expression is; Me cago en la leche de la madre que te pari� (I shit on the milk of the mother that bore you), the intention being that the person to who the phrase is directed, sucks shit. Other versions include; Me cago en Dios (or Diez, not as blasphemous), Me cago en todo (when you can't find your house-keys at 5 in the morning), Me cago en los clavos de Cristo (Mel Gibson take note) and finally, the strongest one I have heard and NEVER to be repeated; Me cago en las tetas de la Virgen para que el Ni�o Jesus mama mierda. Perhaps a better thread would be one on piropos and so help Madridinsider in his quest at chatting up women on the Metro. :cheers:

hey, come on guys, take it easy with that kind of language, some of it is not only blasphemous, but also offensive to Catholics.
I swear sometimes too, but I leave that stuff well out of it, not just because I'm Catholic, but because I think it's a bad habit/practice and should be avoided, especially when it comes to Spanish swearing, which is much more profound and shocking than in english, mostly I think because of the blasphemous content, and the cussing of God, Jesus and the Virgin Mary.
I appreciate the fun aspect of it all, have fun by all means, but.....
Tranquila eh!

..how true, how true! I don't think a 40 year old N.Y. city construction worker can swear as well as a 17 year old Spanish female. I think swearing might be considered a sport in Spain.

moral of this thread, the spaniards shit on just about anything
Just last week I went to a TV taping with my two best friends, Sandra and Ivan. Ivan asked the coordinadora who else was there and she said Miguel Bose and Andy y Lucas. First, Sandra said, "QUE ME CAGO!!!" then two minutes later when she was explaining it to her mother on the cell, "SE ME CAEN LAS BRAGAS!" I asked her if it was because she had just taken a dump in them.
She hit me.
