Champion historical swearer has to be The Marquis De Sade.

BTW Did anyone see the Viz Profanisaurus last week? Enlightening.

Included some Austarlian expressions such as "mapatasi" (Map Of
Tasmania), I've not encountered before. Noun's such as "Kojak's roll-
neck" or "chocolate starfish" or verbs such as the vile and non-specific
sexual act, the "Belgian biscuit"
