I will admit... if someone said "I'm gonna cut ye" or "I'm gonna cap yer arse." I may just go "uh" or use "dude" IC.
Yeah, I more posted that tidbit for fun.
This second bit brings up something important though, which is that oftentimes people confused phrases for words. Something like "Pop a cap" likely too modern by linguistic standards. I looked it up out of curiosity, and although it does have a few proto-uses according to this thread on the English section of Stackexchange, "pop a cap" in the stated usage can be pinned down to the 2000s.

I've only seen Swive offered as an alternative. The game gives us some other stuff like "Thal's Balls" and what-not, but those don't strictly mean "Fuck," or work in place of any of its derivative uses.
I used the phrases more out of the idea that some words are apparently seen "out of place" so by extension those phrases. What about "I'll have to pass." ?
Some variations I believe I've seen in-game were "pissing" or "piss off" or "bugger off"
