Fans of Battlestar Galactica may know that those two words are used a lot in the series.
How did they get away with it when it so obviously just another word for f**k?
It's also used a lot on this forum but that's another topic.

If I recall, Frak and Frakking were used to describe two not very attractive women in a long time ago politcal affair. Perhaps Nelson Rockefeller. Oh, it is Frk and Frak. wikipedia time. National sensations until they blew over. I thought they were attractive. Heck, I found Linda MCCartney attractive. Not drop dead beautiful as Jean or Chrissie Shrimpton but attractive.
Yoko I have never found attractive. I hate her less but unattractive remains in so many ways.

When I hear the work "fracking".. I think of breaking rocks far under ground with high pressure water and chemicals to release methane and other gases for a fuel source... but again Im a bit in left field :)

Not to be confused with "frag" and "fragging". This is when a fed up subordinate throws a grenade into his commanding officers quarters while he's asleep.
Like-
"Ray Franz fragged the Governing Body when he published "Crises of C....." "

Then again the experts will tell you that "Flip" and "Flipping" mean the same but they don't have the 'offensive' connotations. Probably because ending in 'p' gives it a softer sound.
