I personally see nothing wrong with telling a lout FA to bugger off but when homebound they are a) on the power trip and b) can abuse the Newspeak scheme established in Singa which outlaws some profanities.

I recommend (and apply it myself) to use some more complex, preferably Greek-Latin swearwords. The crew still understands them as the insults they were designed for but cannot properly deal with them.

So they bugger off and that is what you normally want.
