A trope where someone takes a notable quote or saying and adds a swear word or two at some point in there.
Line 8:
'''Now to count as an example, it has to meet three criteria:'''
# It has to be a distinct quote, not just a common sentence. This includes:
*#* [[Catch Phrase|Catch Phrases]]s
*#* Lines from works
*#* Proverbs
# It has to be a complete sentence, although paraphrasing a word or two is allowed, as long as it remains a complete sentence.
# The example should explain where the source phrase comes from. Hey, if this page is going to have loads of swearing, let's at least make sure it's all legit.
Line 18:
Compare/Contrast [[Quote Mine]] (screwing with a quote, but pretending it's the actual quote).
