1.) US, Mid-Atlantic States
2.) Only in the sense that it's a negative adjective used for emphasis. I'd use it as a synonym for "cursed" or "dang'd"
3.) No, not in everyday speech. It's out of my dialect.

1. Midwest America, Chicagoland.
   
   2. Only vaguely, and I won't embarrass myself by guessing.
   
   3. Nope. See above. I do, however, use "bugger," and I am well aware of what it means.
   
   On a side note, does "smeg" sound particularly disgusting to anyone else, or is it just me associating it with a particular substance beginning with it and ending in -ma?

1. Midwest USA
   2. Yup
   3. Sometimes, but not very often. I use 'bugger' more often than 'sodding'.

1) I'm in the northeast U.S., though not too far north.

2) Yes. I know that word quite well, thanks to Harry Potter and the fanfictions that I've read.

3) I sometimes use it, but not very often.

1) United States, near Boston.

2) Yes. Bit of an interesting story how I found out. I was reporting a Suefic in the PotC Mary Sue report, and I happened to mention this typo the Suethor had made. She had intended to write "sob." The line ended up being:

Mr. Gibbs began to sod uncontrollably.

Oh, the images. :)

3) No. Ever since 2) happened, I could never bring myself to use it without breaking into loud peals of laughter. Oh well!

mid-east in the Deep South, U.S. (but I lived in the U.K. until 2001.)

Yes, I tend to use it when I'm annoyed with someone. Smeg is another good word. or Flargnogg. (you have to be creative when working with small children who delight in repeating words they aren't meant to hear.)

1) Colorado, USA.
2)I am indeed. Yay obsessions with Harry Potter, Dr. Who, and British relatives. (Not obsessions with said relatives. Possession of.)
3)Not often, though I may start using it more often. My current curse words of choice are 'bloody,' 'gorram,' 'jesus h. roosevelt christ,' and various canned and usual ones. And, of course, 'merde' and 'scheisse.' Though, come to think of it, I have been known to tell the Evil Brother to sod off.

Here endeth my pointless rant concerning my use of profanity.

--anamia

I'll use "sod" sometimes when I'm annoyed with someone, but that's the extent. I imagine it comes from "sodomy"? And you know where I am ;)

1) New Zealand
2) Yes. And frequently bemused by the fact that despite its literal meaning, it's not considered a Bad Word here. Although then again, neither is 'bugger'.
3) Alllll the time.

1. Southwest U.S.
   
   2. Yes, thanks to Hot Fuzz.
   
   3. Because I tend to imitate the speaking styles of things I read or watch, I used it a bit after seeing Hot Fuzz the first time, and a few times recently thanks to reading the Board/PPC missions.

1) Just upstairs from you, Padsy.

2) More so than I was earlier, after hearing you list the words you wanted to use that the censors were blocking.

3) Sometimes.
