Hurricane of Euphemisms | comment |
When a character rattles off a list of euphemisms, synonyms, figures of speech, slang terms, and/or foreign language translations that all mean the same thing, in order to emphasize a point or give an unsubtle hint to the person they're taking to. When used one at a time, euphemisms serve as milder substitutes for words considered too harsh or blunt for the situation. When you refer to something using multiple euphemisms, however, you instead draw attention to the actual subject in a way that's impossible to avoid. You're saying the same thing in so many different ways that they can't play dumb by pretending not to understand at least one of the expressions you're using, and you're implying that any attempt by them to hide behind euphemisms is useless because nobody knows what they really mean better than you do. This is great for teasing, exasperating, or accusing someone about something they're trying to avoid, but in any case it's a shining opportunity for the user to show off their vocabulary, wit, and/or knowledge of slang. It could be about anything, but tends to be about subjects that are taboo or embarassing to discuss such as death (in which case it's often used to mock or defy Never Say "Die"), sexuality (private parts, sexual orientations, masturbation, sex acts), bodily functions (farting, burping, urination, defecation, vomiting), sensitive health problems (obesity, drug/alcohol addiction, mental or physical disabilities), or crime and punishment (drugs/contraband, murder, prison, the police). A subtrope of Rapid-Fire Comedy. Similar to Hurricane of Puns. Compare Freudian Slippery Slope. Contrast Cluster F-Bomb. See also Cliché Storm. |

Skins: Naomi and Katie do this for lesbianism in front of Emily. It's a rather awkward and painful sequence, as Katie thinks Naomi's gay (she's not - certainly at the time, and even by the end of the series she doesn't get past "confused"), while Naomi strongly (and rightly) suspects that Emily actually is gay, and Emily is nursing an epic crush on Naomi (which Naomi knows about, and isn't exactly pleased with until a couple of episodes later). The autistic JJ also tends to launch into one of these whenever he gets locked on. |

At their hotel, the Bellhop says a bunch of words, onomatopoeia, and other sounds to hint that Homer and Mindy are going to have sex. This was done in an old Tracey Ullman short "The Funeral", when Bart explains to Lisa what "passed away" means.

The whole point of the Whose Line Is It Anyway? game "If You Know What I Mean" is to make as many Lampshaded Double Entendres as possible referencing a given subject, like hotels or weightlifting. It tends to end when the euphemisms start to become too vulgar or just nonsensical. | |

Discworld: Partial example in The Colour of Magic, where it's caused by Twoflower reading out all the synonymous alternatives suggested by his phrasebook at once. In The Truth, Gaspode uses one of these to describe how angry Commander Vimes will be when he finds out William de Worde dropped a powerful scent bomb in front of Sgt. Angua: "Vimes will go round the twist. He's going to go totally Librarian-poo. He's going to invent new ways of being angry and try them out on you." |

Dave from Homestuck is all about elaborate euphemisms, but his countertrolling of Tavros stands out. The fun begins with "so at what point in the future am i supposed to look forward to you whipping up this titanic hankerin for my knob", and then proceeds through "throbbing beef truncheon", "crotch-dachshund", "naked spam porpoise", "little boy peckers" and "vienna sausages". | |

Professional Wrestling website Cageside Seats had a four-part review of Chyna's latest foray into wrestling, "Chyna is Queen of the Ring", which is filled to the brim with euphemisms and puns. The same writer later reviewed her She-Hulk adaptation, where "Jennifer Walters showed that she really knows how to expertly use her mouth to bypass legal boundaries". |

In the thirteenth Valhalla album, when Loki upon finding himself in the underworld tries to ask Hel if he's really dead or not, he uses every every possible euphemism for "death," only to have her completely misunderstand them all, until he breaks down and screams the real word. Translated and paraphrased: He isn't, he's just dreaming. |

Captain Haddock of Tintin loves to hurl hurricanes of obscure euphemisms at his enemies. This was originally to please the Moral Guardians, as Hergé couldn't have his character using foul language in a comic read by children. Then it became a definite quirk of the personage. All of Haddock's curses can be found here, in alphabetical order. |

Questionable Content: In strip number 1779, Tai (who is a lesbian, and attracted to Marten's girlfriend Dora) has just shared with Marten her realization that she would not be able to bring herself to hook up with Dora even if Dora and Marten were to break up first. Not so much out of respect for her friendship with Marten, as because she wouldn't want to lick Dora's private parts while knowing that Marten had previously ejaculated there. Marten tells Tai that it's not like Dora is dripping his "happy-batter" everywhere she goes. In strip number 4555, Marten's mischievous robot buddy Pintsize has just gotten a more lifelike humanoid body, and is bothered by how he feels inhibited from acting and speaking as crudely as he did before. When the rather bosomy Willow says it was nice meeting him, he tries to answer with, "And it was nice meeting YOUR TITS," except he gets stuck on "TI—" without being able to say the rest. Some alternatives, "Your ju—" and "Your baz—", also stick in his throat, causing him much consternation. Willow giggles that she's going to start calling breasts "Tijubas". In #4769, Roko has dressed up for a night out, but has yet to reveal her outfit. Talking through the door to Beeps, she rattles off a string of descriptions implying that her dress is very short. |

In his "worst jobs" video, Matt mentions the sperm bank janitor, who picks up after people who are answering the bone phone, playing backstroke roulette, bludgeoning the beef steak, choking Charlie till he throws up, discharging dishonorably, playing the skin flute solo, doing the five-finger knuckle shuffle, participating in hand-to-gland combat, jerking the gherkin, jacking the beanstalk, milking the monkey, paddling the pickle, shining their helmet, playing tug-of-war with Cyclops, and/or whipping the dripper. |

Doctor Who: While probably not humorous, the Sixth Doctor (played by Colin Baker) has a habit of using such streams of related terms, especially when frustrated or angry. In one Big Finish audio adventure, a character says that talking to the Doctor is "like arguing with a bloody thesaurus!" Another example from the same argument in the audio: Which is probably a nod to the serial "The Trial of a Time Lord", which revels in thesaurus abuse. |

Jellyfish's "He's My Best Friend" is one for the narrator's private parts along with masturbation. Singer/songwriter/drummer Andy Sturmer said in an interview that the song was stylistically the band's "love letter to Harry Nilsson". "Hypocrite, four-flusher, snake in the grass, just a swindler, a wolf in sheep's clothing... LIAR!" — "All Is Forgiven" Jellyfish splinter act The Lickerish Quartet continue this tradition with "Fadoodle", entirely consisting of a string of pre-20th century euphemisms for sexual intercourse. |

The Bolt Chronicles: In "The Cakes," Mittens peevishly puts forth a blizzard of euphemisms for doing a bowel movement in Monty Python "Dead-parrot-sketch" fashion. Her litter box is located in the laundry room, and Bolt misunderstands her initial veiled explanations regarding why she was there. Once the dog finally figures things out, he supplies an unusual contribution of his own. In "The Kippies," Mittens offers several increasingly eccentric euphemisms to point out that Bolt cannot get her pregnant. |

Family Guy: Also done in the "Blue Harvest" episode. In a cut scene, Stewie, playing the part of Darth Vader, remarks on the "foul stench" line from Leia (Lois). In "Quagmire's Dad", Quagmire isn't convinced that his father is gay, but hearing these statements from his father's Navy buddies doesn't reassure him. In "Pawtucket Pete", Peter complains to his friends when Brian replaces him as Pawtucket Patriot Ale's mascot while he's been reduced to playing his dumb sidekick. We don't get to hear the entire rant, as it's interrupted by a look into a bored Joe's fantasies. |

Bosoms, melons, milk factories, busts, fun bags, knockers, ballistics, boobies, jugs, nipples, jubblies, stonking great tits. The last of which became offered on a Fun T-Shirt. |

A John Finnemore's Souvenir Programme skit had someone warning John that his new employee was, well, John never figured that out, but euphemisms for it included "He parts his hair in the middle" and "He wouldn't thank you for punching him in the face", among many others. John said he wouldn't thank someone for punching him in the face either, and the other guy said that in that case, he was sure they'd get on very well. About the only thing John could confirm was that the person being talked about wasn't gay. | |

In Kingdom of Loathing, the monsters found at The Hole in the Sky are all constellations, mostly named after euphemisms for genitalia, because the Astronomers of the Times of Old were all incredibly immature. Potential opponents include The Burrowing Bishop, The Family Jewels, The Hooded Warrior, The Junk, One-Eyed Willie, The Pork Sword, The Skinflute, The Trouser Snake, The Twig and Berries, The Axe Wound, The Beaver, The Box, The Bush, The Camel's Toe, The Flange, The Honey Pot, The Little Man in the Canoe, and The Muff. The only monster than doesn't fit this theme is The Astronomer, because the Astronomers of the Times of Old were also incredibly egotistical. | |
