History PrecisionFStrike / Literature

* In the 4th ''Literature/KingdomKeepers'' novel, Wayne says "Damn" while demanding to check if [[spoiler: Maleficent has escaped her cell]] at the end of the book. This is coming from a novel where no curse has ever before been written and rarely implied and "OMG" is stated out loud in place of the more blasphemous alternative.

* ''Literature/{{WLT}}'': For a book heavily involving sex, the word "fuck" is only used once, and not in a sexual context either. Rather, when Frank White first lands a job at the eponymous radio station, Roy Soderbjerg Jr. explains a situation he once experienced to emphasize the importance of being on time and aware of one's surroundings at the station, in which a former employee came to work hung over and late, and retorted "Oh fuck you" when someone told him his microphone was on when he cursed while demanding why he couldn't hear any music.

** Creator/JKRowling managed a Precision Bitch Strike in ''Literature/HarryPotterAndTheDeathlyHallows'' -- by sweet Molly Weasley of all people. [[LetsGetDangerous "NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU BITCH!"]] (This is not including when Aunt Marge says the word "bitch" in book three, in literal reference to a female dog.)
** Marge's use is a subtler example, as while it makes sense literally, the other sense of the word is clearly implied as well. Marge compares Harry's alleged behavioral problems and his mother's alleged similar traits to dog breeding, stating "If there's something wrong with the bitch, there'll be something wrong with the pup." As Harry realizes from the moment that came out of her mouth that she had aimed a YourMom joke at him, the next plot points are promptly set in motion.

** In the sixth book, Morfin Gaunt calls his sister a “slut” in a flashback, which is only time that specific word is used in the series. Ron had previously used the less crude term “scarlet woman” in the fourth book.

* ''Literature/TheHitchhikersGuideToTheGalaxy''

* In the ''Franchise/DoctorWhoExpandedUniverse'' novels, when the Literature/{{Eighth Doctor|Adventures}} is frustrated he usually says things like [[GoshdangItToHeck "fiddlesticks" and "sugarmice".]] But due to [[DisposableSexWorker being]] [[TemporaryLoveInterest widowed]], getting [[OrganTheft his heart torn out of his chest]] (don't worry, [[BizarreAlienBiology he has another one]]), generally [[BreakTheCutie having a very bad time of it]], suffering from severe nightmares, and having to deal with two formidable villains at once, he starts feeling pretty stressed and refers to one of said villains as a "son of a bitch." Also used to play up the weirdness of a FreakyFriday situation.
