When the new Bat­tlestar Galac­tica came on the air sev­eral years ago one of the fun fan­boy things to say was “frak”, which was the Colonial’s way of say­ing The F Word. You could say it and it was like an in-joke and also it didn’t really mean any­thing, so you could say it in front of your kids (like I did) or other in-the-know nerds.

And now that show is over. Com­pletely over. And I can’t stop say­ing “frak”.

I’ll say it in the car when the kids are around. And she rolls her eyes every­time and then chas­tises me.] my par­ents, peo­ple I don’t even know, and I can’t stop say­ing it. I am a junkie for “frak”.

Lords of Kobol, hear my prayer, and, for frak’s sake, help me stop say­ing “frak”. Pretty please?
