i hereby propose "truckings" where you wish for someone to be whapped on the head by sir garbagetruck.. or maybe share a beer with him, if it's meant in a positive way.

I send fuckings to you all - really, I do. ;)
Phoenix: As a native English speaker, I must point out that severe Truck sittage is the proper scene terminology for "Cut that shit out or you gone get hurt. Bad."

Therefore, Truckings would mean the very pleasurable activity of someone bringing beers and sharing them in the company of Truck and other sceners. Preferably the Arrogant Bastard.

Xeron: as a native English speaker, I fail to see the difficulty with slang. While it may be difficult for outsiders to grasp such things as "That bird's fit" (which is British for "zomg tits lol") it IS indeed language, used in communication between parties. And, indeed, fuckings have been sent for well over 15 years.
I always thought "Fuck you" meat something like "I fuck you", which, if you imgine the two participants to be male, and one of them unwilling, might not be so delicate or pleasurable to the object of the sentence. Unless he's gay, in which case he can turn the whole thing completely backwards by making a fool of the insulter.

Yeah, fuck you!

It's more slang than literal. I've seen gay guys screaming 'fuck you' at each other and not meaning they wished to have sex. (Especially during a breakup.)

It can be used to express one's displeasure, hatred, disgust, lack of respect...

But what it ACTUALLY means, as does 'fuckings to ...' is "I don't care enough about you to come up with a witty saying. You're not worth my time, but I'm still having to put up with you."

Exceptions to this, as with anything in the English language, are many.
well .. I think the key thing is on the "unwilling" participation ;)

This thread is fucked.
It's obviously a form of saying "fuck you" to someone, altered to match "greetings to." It's not proper English, but it makes sense when put in a scrolltext right after the greets list.
As a native english speaker from Australia, I have to say that the only place I've heard the term 'fuckings' is in the scene. It makes no literal sense, and actually means nothing in real world terms. I always assumed it was a made up word by some pissed off scener with a very loose grip on english.
If I wrote something similar, it would be:
A big fuck you, to FTS.
although maybe it could come down to characters
Fuckings to FTS
is shorter. Although,
FTS are wankers
would be more appropriate. As any moron can pull himself off nomatter how minute is dick might be.. but Fuck yourself, as mentioned previously - could be construed as a compliment as you'd need a massive dick to be able to do that (or hideous posture, I guess).

@scenerhub.pl
I'm not having difficulties with it. I understand precisely what is meant when people say "fuckings to". I was just pointing out that it doesn't *sound* like they are saying that.

As a native english speaker, I would have thought you could have figured that out.

next we'll talk on the other words which are just scene slang, like graphician :)

so obviously "fuckings" is just a short for "fuck off greatings", and everything start to make perfect sense

fuckings to a US TV show called 'Future Weapons' !

such a shameful propaganda for army, bushism and gun/cannon manufacturers >:(

if the american people had experienced the war crimes on their own grounds like european countries, instead of 'outsourcing' them on foreign lands, then they wouldn't teach their children to love war :(

Way to derail this thread, Zest.

What, really? I sometimes wondered if the 'mother' in motherfucker refers to ones own mother (aka incest) or just older women in general (aka milf lover). :P

@tomaes
I'm pretty sure its original intent was to imply the person in question has sexual relations with his mum.
