In-universe swear words

Those are more exclamations of alarm, than swearing.

By my beard.
Burn my tail.
By the Sunwell.
Singe my hide.

All that jazz fits under that.

I sadly can’t use Thrall’s Left B0ll0ck ICly as Xaffykins prefers to just punch her insults out.

However:

Demon D!ck.
Go to Hel.
You thick illiterati.
… Kodo Kicker?

You’ve caused me to cringe.

Coldshade will sometimes use Hell/Fel, but she does not swear much in general. She also sometimes calls humans short-ears… not sure if that counts?

Pissant is a popular-ish iirc. I use hell on my characters quite often.

Shouting ‘filthy round ear’ at innocent humans in Stormwind smh

“Well shave my fur and call me Goblin”

Now I’m reminded of that Family Guy episode where Quagmire pretends to be japanese and shouts “Shut up, round-eye!”

Fel instead of hell is a common one. Bastard is probably the word I’d use at the worst with a lot of people.

I may or may not adopt this in a fashion. :eyes:

I haven’t done proper research, but I believe there are more pointy-eared races in WoW than there are round-eared.

So it’s a valid insult.

And also awful.

There certainly are amongst the playable races.

Talked IC about just how awful and ugly tiny small round ears are, can confirm it should make for a very legitimate insult!

Do Pandaren count?

Imagine not being able to pick up Sky Sports on your ears.

Still tiny

if ur ears don’t have a bounce animation u smell

That excludes goblins and orcs and we can’t have out green bois be lumped with humans!

In a similar vein, the Alliance are known to refer to orcs denigratingly as “blackbloods”, since their blood (while not actually black) is a lot darker than that of humans.

Didn’t the orcs also call the humans squishy small-toother pink guys, or something?

Calling an orc “greenskin” is also a really derogatory term that they really don’t like.
