Romanian curses

<p>Courtesy of my grandpa and dad:</p><p><em>fututi curu mati (fuck yo mother's ass)<br />ce pula (what dick) </em></p><p>No, these aren't here to simply revel in. They are research for my Romanian characters in the molasses story. Realism, dammit! I was secretly hoping the first one (which sounds like photo-scura-mootay, and I remember distinctly from my childhood) actually translated into something about sheep or goats, but alas.  </p>

— My grandpa, in a loose translation of an old Romanian joke. Perfect for the molasses story.
