First of a two part series

I have often been told by people, non-Japanese and also some Japanese, that the Japanese don't swear. Well, all I can say to those people is "sassato usero," namely "Get lost!"

I said that's all I can say, but actually, that's not all I can say. There is also acchi-ni ike (Leave me be, will ya!); onegai dakara, shine (Do me a favor and die!); and kutabatte shimae (go to hell!).
