Poll: Feth

[Icarion (aka Stockholm)]

I just wanted to ask how many people use "feth". Also it is just a word made up by Dan Abnett (the guy who wrote Gaunt's Ghosts) or is it a real word? If so where does it come from?
EDIT:Oh yeah, I've read up until Sabbat Matry in the Gaunt's Ghost series, if that's relevant

 

[Blemontea]

??? i dont know what that word means....

 

[crudus]

would you mind defining the word? It may help.

 

[TheTaco007]

No idea what you're talking about...

Funny, I just started reading Honor Guard for the umpteenth time a few days ago.

Good times. Love the series, but I don't use the word.

 

[thethingthatlurks]

Meh, I prefer "frak"
[sup]I'm pretty sure we're talking about completely different things though...[/sup]

 

[JUMBO PALACE]

I have no idea what you're talking about.

Oh woops. I think its an imaginary swear made up by Dan Abnett, who write in the 40k universe.

High five man. I'm reading through the first omnibus for the 3rd time. The books are just so good.

I've never heard anyone use the word in real life, and have only occasionally ran into it online. Suffice to say, I don't use it.

 

[Icarion (aka Stockholm)]

I don't know what "Feth" means, who Dan Abnett is or what Gaunt's Ghosts is either.

So, um, what?

Its a series of books and Abnett is the author. Feth is a word used in the books. I was curious as to wether people actually used it.

A friend of mine is a big 40K buff, she's used it often and it's kind of rubbed off onto me (hey, anything that lets you swear without technically swearing while referencing something you like is a win win in my book...like smeg!).

 

[jamradar]

What does feth mean?

 

[tanithwolf]

I do say this word "Feth" sounds like a splendid idea, and whoever thought it up must be an ingenious author. I do so very much look forward to delving into the world of these "Gaint's Ghosts".

 

[loc978]

Dan who? Gaunt's what?
*looks it up*

Wow... that's... obscure.

 

[soperg]

What does feth mean?

it's a fuck replacement. like Farscape's frell and Galactica's frak.

 

[Sassafrass]

I've seen GreyFox105 use it a few times, along with a couple of others using it now and then. I think it might be an alternative to swearing or something, not sure.

 

[AceAngel]

People don't use Google anymore I see.

Anyway, yes, I use Feth alot, only now that I stopped...

Listen Warhammer fans, I like Warhammer as much as the next guy and all, but we're not 'Comrades' or 'Buddies' or 'Nerd-Bro's' just because I do "YARRRR-ICK!" to emulate a drunken pirates while saying Yarrick and instead of saying Fudge, I said Feth.

Yes it's cool to Nerd-Joke "OMG, you know Warhhamer in RL", but it gets old.

I thought this was going to be about Faith, spelled poorly.
