Overly gratuitous/unconventional swearing.

I am Dr. Ned who is totally not Dr. Zed in disguise.
When someone goes "fucking badger nipple licking arsecheese fishes etc"
It just seems too forced and like the user is revelling in being able to finally say naughty words (take that mother!)
Clear and precise swearing conveys the exasperation, frustration or just rage so much concisely.
Edit:
Also people using swear words from TV like 'frell' or something, it sounds silly as the word doesn't sound like there is any meaning/force behind it.

(I do use Elder Scrolls swearwords more than real-life ones though. When I counted up the hours I spent playing Morrowind in my life they came to about a year.)
And made up swearwords aren't so bad. You just gotta mix it up a bit... Y'know... saying "fiddlesticks" one moment and calling your mother a cunt the next.
Up yours, Doom Generation.
Like, "poot" instead of "shit".
"Oh, POOT!"
"What kinda poot is this?"
"This piece-a-poot phone is driving me nuts!"
Wish that's what happened to me...
"I've never fucked a baby dragon before."
