Jeeze, too many people didn’t pay attention to middle school english classes.
it’s neither. the fuck is possessive, like “for pete’s sake” or “for god’s sake.” it’s for the sake of the fuck.
Who possesses the sake? Whose sake is it? Fuck possesses the sake. 's
And more importantly, is it warm or cold sake?
Took me 5 minutes to understand and appreciate this comment
I feel like “for the sake of fuck” carries its own unique weight.
Yup, I think I’ll just slip that one into my lexicon
For fuck, shake.
For fuck’s sake
What if you’ve got multiple fucks to give sake? Like for fucks’ sake? I guess you’d need multiple sakes in that case.
Oh for fuck’s sake!!
If you invoke fuck’s sake in corporate correspondence you doesn’t have no more fucks to give.
The poster totally knew that.
Classical engagement baiting strategy.
how come I member it as
for fuck sakes
Fun trick I learned in the NE US and thus call the “fuckouttahere” rule:
Due to the sheer lexical versatility of “fuck,” many idioms have a punchier, high-utility variant that omits any or all words preceding it.
As in “fuck’s sake, ma’am, this is a Wendy’s.”
